History & Legacy of Omega

Omega is a Swiss luxury watchmaker known for producing high-quality and prestigious timepieces. The company was founded in 1848 by Louis Brandt in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland; Louis Brandt started as a watchmaker, and he produced key-wound pocket watches. Originally, it was called "Louis Brandt et Frère" and they primarily produced pocket watches and it was until 1903 that the company officially adopted the name "Omega."

Throughout its history, Omega has continued to innovate and produce high-quality timepieces. Today, it remains one of the most prestigious and respected Swiss watchmakers, offering a diverse range of collections that cater to various lifestyles and tastes. Today, Omega continues to be a prominent and highly regarded Swiss luxury watch brand.

Omega Constellation: The Omega Constellation was introduced in 1952 as a chronometer-certified collection, following the success of the 1948 Centenary, Omega’s first automatic chronometer. Known for its precision, the Constellation featured automatic movements and the signature observatory medallion caseback. In 1970, Omega launched the Constellation Electroquartz, embracing the quartz revolution. Today, the Constellation remains a symbol of Omega’s commitment to accuracy, innovation, and timeless design.
