Early on, the name sat just below the chronometer-certified \u003cstrong\u003eConstellation\u003c\/strong\u003e, while \u003cstrong\u003eSeamaster\u003c\/strong\u003e carried the sports and water-resistant role. By the late 1960s and 1970s, Genève was Omega’s volume mechanical line — still in-house movements, simpler styling, a younger mid-market price — and by several accounts a large share of production around 1970. The line ended in \u003cstrong\u003e1979\u003c\/strong\u003e, and De Ville took over the dress role. This \u003cstrong\u003e162.0060\u003c\/strong\u003e sits in that overlap: Omega’s vintage catalogue files steel reference \u003cstrong\u003eST 162.0060\u003c\/strong\u003e under De Ville (1974–1983), while this example, like many published 162.0060s, is signed \u003cstrong\u003eGenève\u003c\/strong\u003e on the dial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0299\/7639\/5913\/files\/Omega_Geneve_162.0060_1_600x600.jpg?v=1794319830\" alt=\"Omega_Geneve_162.0060_1.jpg\" width=\"600\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Omega Genève 162.0060 square case\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe case is the story on this reference: a compact \u003cstrong\u003estainless-steel\u003c\/strong\u003e square with softened corners — the shape collectors often call a \u003cstrong\u003eTV\u003c\/strong\u003e or TV-screen case — with brushed flanks, a modest acrylic crystal, and a \u003cstrong\u003epress-in\u003c\/strong\u003e (snap) caseback. It is not a monocoque, and not the Genta C-shape used on contemporary Constellations. Omega publishes the steel 162.0060 at \u003cstrong\u003e31.5 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e across; the lug width is \u003cstrong\u003e18 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e. The crown is Omega-signed.

Omega catalogued the reference with automatic calibre \u003cstrong\u003e1010 or 1012\u003c\/strong\u003e; published steel Genève 162.0060 examples typically use the 23-jewel \u003cstrong\u003ecalibre 1012\u003c\/strong\u003e (28,800 bph, quick-set date, and stop-seconds, introduced in 1972). The press-in caseback is plain and evenly brushed on the outside, with no reference or serial visible — marks for this model are usually inside, and no movement photograph is in this set, so the calibre is given from the published specification. The steel case presents as \u003cstrong\u003eclose to mint\u003c\/strong\u003e, with \u003cstrong\u003eno obvious usage marks\u003c\/strong\u003e in the photographs: even brushing, sharp edges, and a remarkably clean back. The acrylic crystal is clear, with no obvious face scratches in the images. The watch comes on an \u003cstrong\u003eaftermarket mesh bracelet\u003c\/strong\u003e with an unsigned folding clasp, as photographed — not an original Omega bracelet.
