Omega, founded in 1848 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, by Louis Brandt, quickly became known for precision and craftsmanship in watchmaking. Pioneering innovations under the leadership of Brandt's sons led to the 1894 Omega Calibre, a breakthrough in interchangeable watch movements. Omega's rise to fame was marked by precision records and its role as the Official Olympic Timekeeper since 1932. Notably, the Omega Speedmaster became the first watch in space in 1962 and was worn on the moon in 1969. Omega's legacy extends into pop culture, famously associating with James Bond since 1995. Continually innovating, Omega remains a symbol of precision, adventure, and elegance in watchmaking.
