Omega

The Dynamic...

 

... has an uncommon design indeed



...OEM Corfam strap below, dark blue color (very hard to catch)...





Unfortunately this watch is not that easy to wear IMHO....

 ... you don't trust me ?

Ok then, I dare you to find how to match a tie, a dress shirt and a suit with that shiny funky thing ....  wink 




... Well, usually I do like the 70's (please don't mock me) , but this one is ... too much (?)

Edit: @G99: Graham (may I call you by your first name ? ), just notice you are the purist of the week. Very nice opportunity to get to know you... and very impressive collection of yours (oh boy, this Early Bird... !!!! ). Wear them in good health wink

i meant Crap Andy they made them out of corofam or something similar which is an awful leather looking stuff. you need to know the dynamic to understand how bad the strap design really is. i'll tell you one day. G...  

Boy, you are tough on those straps...

Is this one of those oval Dynamics? That perfed racing strap did fit the watch well. I have a leather aftermarket version on my similar 1969 Geneve, and it looks and wears well. But I am in the minority here for my love of those late 60s - 70s Omegas... ;...

Something like this....?

From what I could see (I usually catch TG on Netflix). Those Brits love Swiss watches, I don't think you'll hardly ever see a Seiko or Citizen on their wrists like us Yanks do! Thank you.... ^_^
