Posted on October 27, 2020 | By admin
1970’s OMEGA DYNAMIC Vintage Mens Large 39mm Cal. 565 Watch with Quick-Setting Date – Stainless Steel. “The Omega Dynamic is the first watch designed especially for the human wrist (male or female)”. Created in 1967 by Omega’s sales director Robert Forster, the Dynamic is an iconic 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; its strap by the physiology of your skin. We are pleased to offer this uncommon and extra large model, ref. 166.081, from the first generation Dynamic line. It is the only non-oval Dynamic case in the early line and like all other Dynamics uses the same. Strap or bracelet design. At over 39mm in diameter not including the crown, this big fellow fills out even a full size wrist. As one of the early Dynamics, before Omega switched to using the 1000 series movements for the line, it was powered by Omega’s high-grade caliber 565. Omega’s top-tier caliber 565 movement, one of the last superior 500’s series movements used before Omega began trying to reduce their costs, was the top-tier offering of the 500 series. It has 24 jewels and a quick-setting date and is arguably the finest mass-produced automatic movement from the era. It is 100% Omega down to the hands, crown, and original Dynamic bracelet. It presents in gorgeous condition – a 9.7 out of 10. Its steel case shows only lights signs of polishing to the back. On the wrist it presents as mint. Its wonderfully designed dial with concentric circles is mint. And its very fine automatic Omega movement with quick-setting date has just been overhauled and serviced by a Master Watchmaker. It winds smoothly and is keeping very accurate time. An almost fifty year old Dynamic that presents like new on the wrist!

We don’t recommend getting a vintage watch wet – and really don’t recommend showering or diving with it – even one that was originally designed to be waterproof. Wait until you see how big the box is that your watch is coming in! Please do remember though that while we do our very best and have careful procedures and quality control inspections – we will again fully re-test the proper functioning of your watch after you pay, right before we send it to you – from time to time some courier workers don’t handle packages the way we think that they would want their own packages to be handled. Watches are ultra-precision instruments, and the timekeeping of most is governed by a small spring that is only about 1/8 the thickness of a human hai r. The vast majority of our watches arrive safely and problem free. But even on a bad day there’s still good news… Yes, even the older vintage watches. So sit back, relax, and dream about the first place where you’re going to wear your new watch!
