About OMEGA Watches

 

In 1848, Le Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, OMEGA’s founder Louis Brandt started a small workshop to sell pocket watches. After his death, his sons took over, expanded and in 1885, launched their first mass-produced OMEGA caliber, the OMEGA Labrador. In 1892, they created the first minute-repeating timepiece, and just two years later, the brothers introduced the 19-line OMEGA caliber, which helped to establish their place in the luxury watch industry, and eventually gave OMEGA its name.

By 1905, OMEGA had become the official timekeeper at sporting events across Switzerland. The company solidified one of its most important timekeeping partnerships, in 1932, when the Olympic Games entrusted the OMEGA brand with the timekeeping for the summer events in Los Angeles, California. In 1962, OMEGA Watches made history when astronaut Wally Schirra wore the OMEGA Speedmaster on his Mercury Sigma 7 mission, which led to a significant endorsement from NASA in 1965, making the OMEGA Speedmaster their official chronograph for space missions.

In the new millennium, OMEGA Watches continues to grow their catalog. Whether through sports, space, or pop culture, OMEGA has maintained its reputation as one of finest watch brands in the world, producing state of the art Swiss timepieces for over 150 years. To wear an OMEGA is to wear a piece of history. An OMEGA watch represents style that has prevailed through generations.
