A Watch of Olympic Proportions

The Grand Prix was only the beginning of the brand.s involvement in sports, as it was appointed 21 times to be the official time keeper of the Olympic Games. It brought new innovations to the games, such as the electronic watch in 1952 at the Helsinki games. In the very same year, the company received the Olympic Cross of Merit for its outstanding performance and continuous support in the sports industry.

Omega watches are known for their superior movement, and precision.
