The Swiss watchmaker and Official Timekeeper of the Olympics has released a special edition piece honouring this year’s Games, infused with the brand’s rich history
Just in time for tomorrow's much-awaited opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympics, beloved Swiss watchmaker Omega, the Official Timekeeper of the Games, has released a special piece to commemorate the moment. Aptly named ‘The Omega Paris 2024 Bronze Gold Edition,’ the watch draws inspiration from the most coveted aspect of the Games: the medals, symbolising the pinnacle of sporting achievement.
The timepiece elegantly incorporates all three revered materials – bronze, silver, and gold. It features a 39mm case crafted from Omega’s exclusive bronze gold, a sleek dial made from Ag 925 silver, and delicate hands in 18K Sedna gold with a special PVD bronze gold coating. Boasting a vintage feel, the piece is influenced by a classic Omega wristwatch from 1939, harking back to the brand’s pioneering days of timekeeping. Naturally, just like the athletes competing at the Games, the watch’s performance is top-notch, powered by the Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8926.
