As a extravagant watch manufacturer, Omega exalt itself in the world watch brands as an exquisite, innovative and high-quality watch brand. Since its founding in Switzerland in 1848 by Louis Brandt, Omega has never stopped looking for novelty and improvement.
At the beginning, Louis established the company by bringing in some hand-operated winding watches from the local craftsmen for reference. Over years, after numerous trials and adjustments, Omega gradually rose to the industry standard.
In 1903, there are only 800 staff in the company and only 240,000 watches were produced every year. However, the company extended nonstop. The company once rose to number one watch producer in Switzerland. In the 1960s, the company launched the Omega Speedmaster Professional Chronography and put into aviation use. It was practiced by NASA and became the first watch appearing in the moon. But the tide reversed in 1975 when the economic recession stroke. The company struggled forward.
In the 90s, the company was reborn with its bold originality. In 1995, the Omega Seamaster Quartz Professional was worn by Pierce Brosnan, a well-known film actor. Four years later, in 1999, it mass produced a watch with co-axial escapement and gained much popularity. Ever since then, Omega is so popular among the world that it was picked out to be the Olympics watches.
Omega never halts improving. Nowadays, it is proposing a variety of models. Some of them could be faddish for fashionistas, while some are professional designed for the professional.I believe the brand will glisten eternally.
