Remarks:

The Cal. 565 runs smoothly and keeps excellent time, with a fully functional quickset date. Its blue sunburst dial catches the light beautifully, complemented by a striking orange seconds hand for a sporty touch. The 36.9 mm (including crown) stainless steel case remains sharp and unpolished, with the original Omega-signed crystal and case back intact — a vibrant example of the Omega Genève Ref. 166.041, combining a rare blue dial with a orange seconds hand making a striking contrast. A reliable movement for collectors or as a refined daily vintage piece.
