History The reference 511.454 Omega Genève is defined by its miniature oval case, measuring approximately 15 mm in diameter. To accommodate such a diminutive profile without sacrificing precision, Omega utilized the Caliber 1070, a 17-jewel manual wind movement specifically designed as a compact caliber for small women's watches. This model remains a wonderful example of the brand's dedication to elegant, purpose-built mechanical timepieces during the 1970s.
