Created in 1967 by Omega's sales director Robert Forster, the Dynamic is a wonderful example of a true retro style. The clean and functional watch, a considerable success for Omega, possessed a number of designed elements that made it stand out:
- An ellipse shape with recessed crown determined to be the best geometric shape for the wrist, determined after extensive study
- Easy to read dial with "time zone" sections
- Unicoc case with hermetically sealed crystal water-resistant to a depth of 30m.
- Available with a stainless steel bracelet or easily interchangeable water-resistant Cor-fam straps
According to an Omega advertisement at the time, "The shape of the Omega Dynamic was determined by the anatomy of your wrist; its dial by the workings of your eyes; it strap by the physiology of your skin."
We are pleased to offer this first generation Dynamic. The first generation of the watch lasted from 1968 until 1970.
It is fully Omega down to the dial, hands, crown, and crystal. The steel case retains its original Omega factory applied sunburst finish and presents as just short of mint on the wrist.
The dial is original and mint. And the Omega movement winds smoothly and is running true. It has previously been equipped with a new aftermarket band and buckle of unknown origin.
Note that the band is a little darker shade of blue than the photos suggest.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate attesting to its performance.
An almost fifty year old Dynamic that presents beautifully on the wrist!
Please note: An example of this watch resides in the Omega museum, and a published example can be found in Marco Richon's work Omega: A Journey Through Time, 2007, pg. 483.
