The Olympic Games & Omega

Omega is a prestigious watch manufacturer known throughout the world for their many achievements and awards, as well as their role as official timekeepers for high-profile competitions.

So far they’ve been timekeepers at 22 Olympic Games. Going forward, they will be the Official Timekeeper for the 2008 Summer Games in Beijing 2008, the 2010 Winter Games in Vancouver, BC, and the London 2012 Summer Olympic Games.

Founded in 1848, Omega has continued to raise the bar in watch making. One of their latest innovations for increased precision is a revolutionary design called a Co-axial Escapement, which is used instead of the lever escapement found in most mechanical watches.

Coupled with a free sprung-balance, their system both reduces sliding friction, and makes the watch far less sensitive to shock.

Both these advantages make the Omega a high-precision chronometer that will have greater accuracy over longer periods of time. In addition, the self-winding mechanical movement is COSC-certified and has a 44-hour power reserve.
