Omega Watches: A Brief History

Omega SA is a high-finish watch company based in Biel/Bienne Switzerland. Omega is currently 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 1 of Switzerland's largest watch businesses. They each passed away in 1903 and left the business in the hands of 4 young individuals, the oldest of whom, Paul-Emile Brandt, was not however 24 but who ultimately became the great architect and builder of Omega. His influence would be felt over the next half-century. Omega is still one of the world's most recognizable watch brands today.

As with other luxury watchmakers, Omega has a staggering quantity of models in various collections, which are updated frequently. Discovering a specific Omega watch can be a difficult task due to sheer volume, but don't worry, I will try to assist 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 personal, a Seamaster was the all-natural choice.

Omega Collections

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

1. Constellation
2. Seamaster
three. Speedmaster
4. De Ville
5. Specialties

If you're buying for an Omega watch, you will generally discover the first four collections available online. As for the fifth, Specialties are precisely that... specialties (like Beijing 2008), so they're fairly uncommon. I would suggest learning about them on the Omega web site before deciding to make a buy. 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're searching for.

Omega watches are identified by their Reference number, which is distinctive to each particular model for that offered iteration, typically in an ####.##.00 format. For example, two Speedmaster Expert watches might have various reference numbers primarily based on the model year and the case, dial and bracelet colours. An auction site like eBay is a great place to discover authentic Omega watches at great 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 web site search 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 business name. When Omega developed a watch for a particular 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 these days, some Omega De Ville watches omit the De Ville name to keep the face much less cluttered and more sophisticated.
