    today 112.jpg I opend the door and said,I,ve got somthing for you. My dad gave it to me but I know your into Omega watch collecting. He grabbed in his pocked and I was stunned. A real nice geneve dynamic 1st model with a 565 caliber and raised markers came out. Is this something for you? he asked. Ofcourse but what,s the price of it. For 150euro,s it.s yours. After a close inspection I agreed. This is what it looks like. Sorry for the bad photo,s. Case is near mint.Dial has no sighns of wear but the original glass has a small hair crack. Overall a very nice example. Do you like it?

    That's what /you/ think :p I'm of Irish ancestry, so chances are there'll be a Patek at the door but he'll give up and move on to the next house.

    It does look like a nice Geneve though, the strap even looks nice.

    Geneve Dynamic is an interesting Omega line isn't it?
    Recently I purchased another Dynamic: Deville Dynamic. It has interesting shiny dark green dial which suit its SS case and dark brown leather.
    It has Caliber 1012 movement. At 42mm dial and interesting design, I thought it will be a nice additional for my collection.
    That's until I check the Omega Vintage Database and find out..... this is a Ladies' watch !!!! ...........LOL .
    I'll keep it but may not have much wrist time. Too bad, since I found the design is rather attractive.

    With needed a tool 107 this is not a lady,s watch. For a lady,s watch you need tool 102. Or am I wrong?

    All of the watches I have to unskrew the ring they need tool 107. If you search the internet, lady,s omega need tool 102. So don.t worry it is a men,s watch your wearing.
