Watch brand Omega can trace its history back to 1848.  Since the beginning, the brand has been defined by the pioneering spirit that has led to the conquest of space and the oceans' depths, timekeeping at the world's best sporting events and the innovative technology which led to the creation of the Co-Axial escapement. 

No timekeeper in the world has a longer or closer relationship with the Olympic Movement than Omega.  Since 1932 the brand has defined sports timekeeping through its flawless timing of 24 Olympic Games and its development of much of the industry's most trusted technology. 

When Omega launched the first Speedmaster chronograph in 1957 they had no idea that it would become the most storied chronograph watch of all time or that its role in history would be fixed in July of 1969 when, strapped to Buzz Aldrin's spacesuit, it became the first watch to be worn on the Moon.  It is still standard equipment for every NASA piloted flight. 

Omega has been responsible for some of the most important innovations in the history of watchmaking.  Their watches have been worn by adventurers and heads of state as well as superstars and spies.
