About Omega
Founded in 1848, Omega is a watch brand renowned for its commitment to excellence, innovation, and precision. The company has consistently demonstrated a pioneering spirit, marking its achievements with conquests of the oceans and space. Notably, since 1965, the Omega Speedmaster has been an integral part of every NASA piloted mission, including all six moon landings and numerous significant explorations beyond our planet.
Omega is also deeply engaged in sports timekeeping, with partnerships in golf, sailing, athletics, and swimming. Since 1932, the brand has served as the Official Timekeeper of the Olympic Games, playing a vital role in precisely timing a wide range of sports and continuously advancing the essential equipment that athletes rely on today.
In the realm of watchmaking, Omega's history is characterized by an unwavering pursuit of perfection. This quest continued in 1999 with the introduction of the revolutionary Co-Axial escapement and, in 2015, with the creation of the world's first Master Chronometer. Accredited by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS), Master Chronometer certification sets the highest industry standard for precision, magnetic resistance, and chronometric performance.
Omega's association with James Bond, and the pairing of the spy with the Seamaster watch since 1995, is one of the brand's most internationally recognized collaborations.
The brand boasts an impressive list of real-life ambassadors, including luminaries like George Clooney, Nicole Kidman, Cindy Crawford, Eddie Redmayne, Daniel Craig, Zoë Kravitz, Kaia Gerber, Rory McIlroy, Sergio Garcia, Michael Phelps, Chad Le Clos, Liu Shishi, Michelle Wie, Buzz Aldrin, and Thomas Stafford.
Omega is also actively involved in social causes, with a dedicated partnership with Orbis International, whose Flying Eye Hospital brings high-quality eye health care to some of the world's most remote regions. This aligns with the brand's commitment to meaningful actions and sustainability, encompassing initiatives such as satellite mapping, clean-up projects with ClearSpace and Privateer, and Earth-based documentaries in collaboration with the GoodPlanet Foundation.
