Before it was called OMEGA, our company’s first workshop opened in 1848. Then, in 1894, we created the revolutionary 19-ligne “OMEGA” calibre – which changed the watch industry forever and gave us our famous name. This year, we’re celebrating the 125th anniversary of that iconic moment. Listen to Eddie Redmayne telling our story and see what we've created for the occasion.
THE STORY CONTINUES
The original 19-ligne “OMEGA” calibre introduced pioneering mechanisms and industrial-scale production lines. To celebrate its enduring success, OMEGA is giving the movement a new lease of life in 2019. Using original components and modern expertise, the watchmakers in OMEGA’s Atelier Tourbillon will create 19 new calibres for a very special pocket watch project.
This exquisite timepiece has been crafted from 18K yellow gold with a burgundy leather strap and a red enamel dial. The caseback includes an anniversary medallion, as well as a decorative engraving known as "damaskeening".
