The club's history dates back to 1923, when a group of jewelers got together and founded the club to promote their company. The club joined the old Liga Occidental De Jalisco. Albino Ruvalcaba and Felipe Martínez Sandoval were the ones that really took on the idea of making this club worthy of playing in the first division.
Back then there was no national league, but instead numerous amateur leagues across Mexico. Liga Amateur de Jalisco was one of the best at the time. It consisted of clubs such as Club Deportivo Guadalajara, Atlas de Guadalajara, Club Nacional de Guadalajara, Club Marte, Club Latino, Club Colón and Club Oriente. It took Club Oro a few years to establish a higher level of play, thus it was considered a weak team in the early 1930s. On 20 July 1930 the club inaugurated its new field Parque Oro, o Parque Oblatos in a friendly match against Mexico City club Necaxa. This new football field was used by most of the clubs at that time and was considered to be the best field in the state of Jalisco.[citation needed]
By 1933 there were nine clubs in the league and different categories were formed. There was an "A" and a "B" Division that were similar to a first and second division. The "A" was composed by Club Deportivo Guadalajara, Atlas de Guadalajara, Club Nacional de Guadalajara, Club Marte and Club Latino, The "B" by Club Colón, Oriente, Imperio and CD Oro due to the inferior level of these teams compared to those in the "A" Division.
In 1943 when the professional football era began in Mexico, CD Oro missed the opportunity to join the league, however other teams in the Guadalajara metropolitan area region such as Club Deportivo Guadalajara, Atlas de Guadalajara did get an invitation that year. CD Oro saw this events as a wake-up call to get an invitation into the professionalism. CD Oro was finally invited to take part of the 1944–45 tournament along with Puebla FC and Club León, both teams had been taking part in other amateur leagues in Mexico. At the end of the 1948 tournament the club finished tied in first place along with Club León and so a series was played in order to determine the 1948 champion. The first match ended up in a 0–0 draw, the second match was won by Club León who took their first league title with a 2–0 victory.
1948 runner-up squad under player/coach "Pablotas" González: Luis Bernabé Heredia, Agapito Perales, "Negro" Barba, Manuel "Molestias" Núñez, Santiago Piola Mendoza, Florentino Palma, Antonio "Roque" Ruiz Pizano, Chepe Naranjo, Roberto "Chango" Zárate, Delfino Vázquez, and Benjamín "Bailarina" Méndez; also playing with the during the season were Benito Heredia and Jesus "Pelon" Silva.
At the end of the 1956 tournament CD Oro and Club León finished tied once again at first place and so a championship series was played. CD Oro kicked off the game by scoring a goal in the 2nd minute of play by Vigo but Leon's Marcos Aurelio tied the game. CD Oro took a 2–1 lead before half-time when Chepe Naranjo scored. The second half was dominated by Club León; they scored 3 goals and won the title once again.
CD Oro 1956 runner-up squad: Raúl Córdoba, Narciso "Chicho" López, Ramón "Cepillo" Soto, Jesús "Tejón" García, Sabino "Sabú" Morales, Evelio Alpizar, Luis "Negro" Vázquez, José "Chepe" Naranjo, Walter Meneses, José Vigo and Rafael Valek.
The club won its first and only league title in the 1962–63 tournament over Club Deportivo Guadalajara and snapped a four-year streak of winning the league title. In the final game of the tournament it would be as if it was set up to be with this two clubs to meet each other.[citation needed] Club Deportivo Guadalajara would only have to tie in order to take that title having a one-point advantage on Oro. The final and decisive match was played on 20 December 1962 at Estadio Jalisco which was inaugurated just a few years before. The game ended-up 0–0 at half time. The second half continued tough until the minute 70 when the Brazilian player "Neco" from Club Oro scored the only goal in the match, giving CD Oro its first title. It was celebrated by the younger CD Oro team who had tied earlier that night led by Malaciaz Castilo and Mario Garcia (both were young developing players ).
1962 Championship squad: Antonio "Piolín" Mota; Germán "Tamal" Ascensio, Luis Llamas, Adhemar Barsellos, Víctor Chavira, Rogelio González Navarro, Felipe "El Pipis" Ruvalcaba, Jorge "Tepo" Rodríguez, Amaury Epaminondas, Manoel Tavares "Neco", Nicola Gravina y José Luis "Zurdo" Pérez.

In 1969 the club finished last in the league tied with Jabatos de Nuevo León. A two-game series was played and after 180 minutes the score stayed at 0–0 and so a final third game was played to untie relegation. In that third games the clubs seemed tired and it was until the end of the match when Bernardino Brambila scored the only game in the match for Oro, thus Oro avoided relegation.
The following year the club once again finished last this time avoiding relegation because the Mexican Football Federation decided to increase the number of clubs in the first division from 18 to 20 and so Club Oro was spared, Puebla FC and Zacatepec were promoted from the second division.
In 1970 the club was sold due to financial problems and the new owners changed the name of the club to Club Social y Deportivo Jalisco but kept the club yellow and blue colors.

In the 1979–80 tournament the club finished tied in the last place along with Unión de Curtidores and so the clubs had to play a relegation series; Unión de Curtidores came out with a 4–3 victory keeping its place in the Mexican First Division CD Oro ended relegated and hasn't been able to come back to the Mexican First Division ever since.
The club played in the second division during most of the 1980s coming close to promotion in 1984 when they lost the final to Zacatepec.

In 2004 the club once again was revived in the second division playing under the name Club Deportivo Oro but was later sold to Jorge Vergara who moved to club to San Rafael where they played under the name Chivas San Rafael.
In 2008 the club rejoined the second division after ex-Oros players Sergio Villalobos and Ariel Villalobos Domínguez bought the club.
