Question 12

Is Omega a respected watch?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Omega is a respected watch. Omega has been producing quality timepieces since Louis Brandt founded the company in 1848 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. His sons Louis-Paul and C�sar took over after his death, and in 1894, the pair developed an intriguing new movement that they called the Omega. Not only was it highly accurate, but every part was replaceable, making it easy for any professional to service. In 1917, the British Royal Flying Corps designated Omega as an official supplier, and during World War II, it became the principal watch supplier for the British forces and their allies. These commissions further strengthened Omega's commitment to ensuring its products' reliability under extreme conditions. Thanks in part to its rugged reputation and Omega's links to the British military, it became James Bond's watch of choice in 1995, appearing in GoldenEye and every subsequent Bond movie. Buzz Aldrin also wore an Omega watch when he became the first man to walk on the moon. On 1stDibs, find a diverse assortment of Omega watches.
