Omega

 

Since its inception in 1848 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, the Omega brand has become synonymous with watchmaking precision and unparalleled chronometric performances. Creators of the first watch to be certified a marine chronometer in 1932, and then the first watch worn on the moon, Omega recently presented the first watch to withstand magnetic fields of more than 15,000 gauss, after equipping its timepieces with the famous Co-Axial escapement invented by George Daniels, which eliminated friction and the need for lubrication. With Omega, watchmaking history is perpetually in the making, and the Constellation, Seamaster, deVille and Speedmaster collections are symbols bearing living testimony to this enduringly innovative spirit.
