FS: Omega Geneve Dynamic ca.1969
Omega Steel Geneve Dynamic Single ColorMatte Grey Dial ca.1969
The Dynamic is a large watch, with an eye catching width of 42mm. It was designed as a basic concept in 1967 by Raymond Thevonaz, a classically trained architect, and then refined by Michel Cattin, the head of the Omega owned atelier. The case utilised an extremely strong monocoque construction, meaning that the case body was machined as a one-piece unit from a solid block of steel. For servicing access, the movement was removed through the front of the case, this operation requiring a specially designed tool, part number 107, mention of which is made on the case back outer. A major advantage of this approach was the very effective natural waterproofing obtained, and when new, the Dynamic was guaranteed by Omega to remain hermetically sealed down to a depth of 30m. The case retains its original polish, this consisting of satinised sides and back and a very distinctive milled texture to the case’s upper surface, with radiating lines extending from the dial to the outer edge of the watch. A final personal observation to be made regarding the comfort afforded by this design relates to its recessed winding crown, this being entirely sunken into the case side. A tee shot when playing golf often means that the winding crown on a conventional watch causes discomfort to the wearer, sticking into his wrist when this is unavoidably bent backwards. The point of contact being increased to the much larger area of the rounded case side alleviates this problem entirely. Similarly, when typing, this style of watch is far friendlier that the norm, for the same reasons mentioned above. The winding crown here is completely original and fully signed with the famous Omega emblem.
