Hey Guys,

I would love some feedback on these three Omega Dynamic's. I was wondering if anyone would have any rough idea of what they are worth? I roughly know the chrono's price, what about the others tho? Is their any difference in rarity due to colour? Are the Dynamics easily found?

Thanks in Advance.

These are one of my favourite omegas and very often overlooked, me and my daughter have the date version and a good friend on here has tracked down a chrono for me last night. This is a watch you either love or hate and to be honest there's more haters than lovers. They didn't sell well and the production run was about for years in total. They are a brushed stainless case and I've noticed people are polishing them now and it spoils the whole look. Here's a photo of mine and my daughters and another of a rare special edition. I would love to know more about the Apollo Soyuz dynamics.

 

Thanks for the info and beautiful watches! Can you provide any information on price for the date version?

 

The non-chrono is Omega caliber 1108, essentially a ETA2892, which is considered a very good movement. Easy to service most places. The chrono is basically the same movement, but with a Dubois-Depraz module on top. The chrono module wasn't meant to be serviced, but sent back to Dubois-Depraz for exchange. So the service is more expensive than other chonos I believe.

As @Event horizon say, it's often overlooked and wasn't very popular. I like them a lot and wouldn't mind having one. No idea about the pricing, sorry.

 

The date only has started to creep up in price in recent times. For a good un abused one is about £550 up to £750 depending on how lucky you are. Get one while they're cheap the price on these is only going one way now.
Don't forget the early dials were tritium and are old enough to take on a lovely patina. The later models had white numerals with a yellow border.

 

Thanks for the info @Event horizon & @ketiljo - I have found one I am going to buy. I will post pics once I get it

 

@Event horizon & @ketiljo - would you guys be concerned about buying the watch without box / papers? I can get one for roughly $800 AUD but it has no papers or box.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance guys.

 

I don't have a single watch with papers, so I don't mind. It's a bonus in my mind. When a watch gets older, it's less likely to get the box/papers with it. When it gets really old, the box/papers commands a premium. These will never get the same status as a sub or a Speedmaster so I wouldn't mind.

 

@Event horizon - can you tell me how wide the strap is? I just bought a date version in yellow! Cant wait for it to arrive, would love to have a new strap waiting!

 

The date only model takes a 19mm strap the chrono is 20mm.

 

Thought you may like a pic, thanks for all your help guys! @Event horizon @ketiljo

 

Looks great Hoods! Love the dials on these.

 

But I am concerned about the shirt/socks combo!

 

I had one of the chronos, sold it for ~$1000 if I recall

 

Haha - I cant comment on that, was rushing out the door this morning!

 

Well I can comment on that shirt socks combo, you look like an eighties yuppy.

 

Taken some better pics of my Dynamic recently (please excuse dust on crystal):

 

Love the first date model yellow 10/10 IMO

 

I'd never heard of these before joining OF, but I find them really attractive and I think I'm going to have to add one to my collection. How big is the non-chrono? Eyeballing it based on a 19mm lug width, I'd guess somewhere around 36mm?
