Re: Trident Mk3 Watches up on the website!

Re: Vintage watch of the day (30 years+)

^^^ Interesting Omega. I suppose the division of seconds into fifths on a non-chrono must be more about...well, being "dynamic"? :D :) The Dynamic had literally dozens and dozens of dials to chose from during its circa five year run. Maybe even more than that... This is one of the more so...
