    Just secured one of my grails but won't float many collectors boats, I have the 3rd gen dynamic date only and waynepjr has sourced me the chrono to keep it company. It's in my favourite flavour tritium here's a goggle picture of my incoming and I'm stoked

    I know they aren't the most desirable of the omega back catalogue I like them immensely.
    Oh by the way I sold off a spare kidney and popped into my AD Tonight and wrestled a generous discount on one of these.

    I love it when a plan comes together.

    Nice going, what ever the plan was, it worked! ;)

    Double score, both are great! By the way I love those third generation Dynamics, both the time only with date and the chrono.:thumbsup:

    To be honest I'm as happy for the dynamic as the sm300, when I first saw the sm300 I loved it but after a couple of months I was unsure. When I saw it in the flesh at Christmas I was gutted because I knew I had to have it.
    The dynamic chrono is one of omegas most overlooked watches in the nineties they tried hard with this watch and managed to fail spectacularly. I bet their advertising engine would make it a success today. When I bought the sm300 the manager of the AD couldn't keep his eyes off my dynamic date model. He eventually popped and asked "just what is it your wearing at the moment?
    It isn't the cost of the watch it's the love for the watch that makes it special.

    Congratulations @Event horizon - a nice mint Dynamic chrono has been on my list for a long time but every piece I've come across seems to be in bad condition or be missing the original box and papers. I would love to see more wrist shots of your new Dynamic.

    Also love the Dynamic, interested as to how many of the 3rd. generation linger on the forum?
    Good lady waiting on this one for two weeks now and not a sign on tracking :(

    Two facts:

    2 register chronographs rock!

    Reissues rock!

    That is all.

    Here's a couple more shots of the dynamics and a picture of my dynamic chrono on Wayne's wrist, I'm liking the mock carbon fibre strap with yellow stitching on the date only at the moment. I've never known a watch that can suit so many different straps.
