Omega SA was founded in 1848 by Louis Brandt in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. The brand is one of the most prestigious in watchmaking, famous for the Speedmaster 'Moonwatch' which became the first watch worn on the Moon during Apollo 11 in 1969. Omega has been the official timekeeper of the Olympic Games since 1932 and is known for its co-axial escapement technology and Master Chronometer certification. Vintage Omega watches are highly collectible, particularly early Speedmasters, Seamaster 300s, and Constellation models.
