Why We Love it
–You can count on one hand the number of watches in Omega's catalog that are arguably more interesting, left-of-center pieces that don't carry the name Speedmaster or Seamaster.
There’s perhaps only one word to describe that could describe this unicorn-like Omega. Dynamic. And it just so happens that’s the name adorned on the dial!
The first Omega 'Dynamic' was created for the Prix de Ville de Genève in 1965 and launched to the public in 1968. Fitted with an elliptical case, it was one of the first watches to be designed with that silhouette and arguably the most comfortable on the wrist. The crown was integrated into the case so that it would not disturb the flow of the watch design and was fitted with a removable case ring that would allow the wearer to switch straps easily. The ring held the back of the strap against the watch almost like a Bund-style strap. This watch was such a success that more than a million examples would be sold.
The Dynamic line has seen three distinct generations. The second collection would followed in 1984, with the final chapter of the Dynamic coming in the 1990s. The example we have here comes from that final generation — the Dynamic Chronograph.
This particular piece, a Reference 175.0310 dates to approximately 1995 and is a neo-vintage gem! It features a 38.5mm stainless steel case paired with a sapphire crystal, signed crown, faceted bezel and oversized barrel pushers. The dial is another example of how the Dynamic line stands apart from Omega’s other chronograph collections. The matte black tritium dial features stylized Breguet indices, contrasting white printing and yellow accents throughout. In short, it is a far more playful take on the complication than any of its brethren.
Powering this piece is the Calibre 1138 automatic winding movement. It comes fitted with a very comfortable multilink stainless steel bracelet with a signed clasp.
Omega’s catalog is expansive. There are so many variations to their core lines that there's pretty much something for everyone. But, if you’re looking for something unique, look no further.
Brand Story

Brand Story
+Founded in La-Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland as La Generale Watch Co, Omega was well ahead of the horological curve from the beginning, developing the first minute-repeating wristwatch in 1892 as well as the eponymous “Omega” caliber in 1894. This 19-ligne movement was revolutionary in that its parts could be replaced by any watchmaker in the world without modification, while its winding and time-setting via the crown provided an industry standard.
Omega became the timepiece supplier of choice for the British Royal Flying Corps in 1917, while the Americans followed suit in 1918, choosing their watches for the U.S. Army. Awards for precision chronometry became almost commonplace, while 1932 saw them become the first watch brand to time an entire Olympic Games. Their Marine, which debuted the same year, is regarded as the first commercially available diver’s watch.
During the Second World War, Omega supplied well over 100,000 timepieces to British forces, making it the largest watch supplier to the British and her allies. These watches, from the unique 6B/159 to the famed “Dirty Dozen” W.W.W, remain highly collectible today.
1948 saw the launch of the original Seamaster: Built upon the tool watch legacy of the brand’s timepieces from the War, it’s since become a byword for reliability and legibility, both as a dress watch and, more recently, as a serious diver’s tool. The Speedmaster, released in 1957 and originally marketed for the auto-racing market, first rocketed to space on the wrist of American astronaut Wally Schirra in 1962. However, it became a household name when, in 1969, it accompanied Buzz Aldrin on the Moon, and later helped save the space-stranded crew of Apollo 13 in 1970 by timing a critical rocket burn.
Today, Omega’s watches — all of which feature in-house movements — run the gamut from svelte dress pieces to the venerable Speedmaster in all its guises. Providing an unquestionable value proposition, Omega is a brand that deserves to be at the center of every serious watch lover’s collection.
