The Omari XL name suggests bulk; the watch itself is the opposite. At 7.7mm deep, this square case sits almost flush against the wrist, and the 32mm footprint means it reads as a considered, architectural piece rather than something that fills the space around it. Storm's fashion-forward geometry is all here — the hard square lines, the blue dial stripped back to almost nothing — and the wide bracelet taper from 30mm gives it a planted, integrated look that a standard strap attachment rarely achieves. The gold PVD and deep blue dial is a combination that holds up in different light: formal enough for a dressed occasion, direct enough for everyday wear. The date sits quietly at six o'clock and does not interrupt the dial's clean face.

Learn more about Storm
Storm was founded in London in 1989 and spent the next decade doing something few watch brands attempt: treating the case as sculpture rather than a container for a dial.
The house style is immediately identifiable — mirror-polished steel, faceted and asymmetric cases, dials with no numerals at all, and a fondness for finishes that make the whole watch look like a single machined block of metal.
Some of the designs abandon conventional time display entirely, using rotating discs, hidden apertures or coloured mirror crystals that only reveal the time at certain angles. The Remi and Zorex lines have carried that idea for years.
The brand designs and produces its own watches rather than licensing the name, and sells through its own stores and jewellers, mostly in the UK and Europe.
Movements are quartz throughout. The point has never been the mechanics; it is that a Storm watch does not look like anything else in the window, which after thirty-five years remains a fair claim.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Will the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedWhat size strap does it take?
30mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Will it fit my wrist?
Lug-to-lug is 41.5mm, which suits wrists from roughly 15cm (6 inches) upward.
Lug-to-lug decides fit more than case diameter does.

F.Hinds is the only UK retailer we track stocking this reference, so there is nothing to compare it against today.
