Omega Watches: A Brief History

Omega SA is a high-end watch company primarily based in Biel/Bienne Switzerland. Omega is presently owned by the Swatch Group. The forerunner of Omega was founded at La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland in 1848 by 23-year-old Louis Brandt. Following his death, his two sons Louis-Paul and César Brandt built one of Switzerland's largest watch businesses. They each passed away in 1903 and left the company in the hands of 4 young individuals, the oldest of whom, Paul-Emile Brandt, was not however 24 but who eventually became the fantastic architect and builder of Omega. His influence would be felt over the next half-century. Omega is nonetheless one of the world's most recognizable watch brands these days.

As with other luxury watchmakers, Omega has a staggering quantity of models in numerous collections, which are updated regularly. Discovering a specific Omega watch can be a difficult job due to sheer volume, but don't be concerned, I will try to help you out. I have an affinity for Omega watches since my father gave me a 1971 Omega Seamaster Cosmic. When it was time for me to get my own, a Seamaster was the natural choice.

Omega Collections

Omega styles watches for males and for women in five collections:

1. Constellation
two. Seamaster
three. Speedmaster
four. De Ville
five. Specialties

If you're buying for an Omega watch, you'll usually find the first 4 collections accessible online. As for the fifth, Specialties are precisely that... specialties (like Beijing 2008), so they're fairly uncommon. I would suggest studying about them on the Omega web site prior to deciding to make a purchase. Purchasing an Omega watch is a large deal, so you want to do your study and take your time unless you know Exactly what you are looking for.

Omega watches are identified by their Reference quantity, which is distinctive to each particular model for that given iteration, typically in an ####.##.00 format. For instance, two Speedmaster Professional watches may have various reference numbers based on the model year and the case, dial and bracelet colours. An auction website like eBay is a great location to discover authentic Omega watches at good costs. However, as soon as you have identified a specific watch you might be interested in, I extremely recommend copying the Reference quantity and going to the Omega website search web page to get a good identification on the auctioned watch.

Omega Watches With No Name

A practice that was discontinued some 20 years ago, was to on occasion omit the model series name on the face of the watch and simply use the Omega company name. When Omega developed a watch for a specific audience, then it would add the model series to the face. The Omega Railmaster is one such instance when it was launched in 1957, but the name has now stuck. Even today, some Omega De Ville watches omit the De Ville name to keep the face less cluttered and much more sophisticated.
