Please help me date this Omega Geneve (early 1960's I belive) It is stainless steel, manual wind 17 jewels with no date function and adjusted to 2 positions. The only marking on the caseback is "waterproof". The serial number is 28812117. It has the 601 caliber. I read somewhere that the early Geneve models were in between the Seamaster and Constellation in value and quality. Is this true?   Zaf Moderator Username: Zaf Post Number: 267 Registered: 05-2003 Rating: N/A Votes: 0 (Vote!) Posted on Wednesday, January 07, 2004 - 05:17 pm:    Hi there. It dates to about 1969. I'd say it's less than either the Seamaster or Constellation, but that's just an opinion. Best, Zaf
