Who Wears an OMEGA?

Since 1848, OMEGA has been recognized for its rugged and athletic watches. Over the past century and a half, OMEGA has had many incredible accomplishments. In addition to receiving countless awards for precision and accuracy, OMEGA also was the first watch on the moon. OMEGA has also been the official timekeeper of the Olympics since 1932—which shows the brand’s  reliability.

 

So why an OMEGA?

OMEGA watches are perfect for you if you’re interested in a watch brand with a long history that makes watches with a sturdy build and classic design. OMEGA has a varied line-up that appeals to a wide variety of personalities and lifestyles. Whether you’re active and casual or more buttoned-up, there’s an OMEGA watch that will work for you.

If you’re looking for a watch with a high water-resistance, a good bet would be an OMEGA Seamaster, which can reach depths up to 1,000 feet. While the Aqua Terra is more of a dress watch than a diver, the Seamaster Professional can satisfy your more casual tastes. If you’re an avid diver, the Seamaster Planet Ocean features both a diver’s clasp and helium escape valve—if you’re not, it’s still a great sport watch with real wrist presence. And if you’re a pop culture junkie, the Seamaster has made multiple appearances in the James Bond film franchise.

If you’re in the market for something a little more traditional, the OMEGA Constellation is a classic. The Constellation has a modern design that’s still fresh even after over 30 years. And, it comes in both men’s and women’s models, so it can work for literally anyone.

The OMEGA Speedmaster is a watch with a storied history. It also tends to be the OMEGA watch that gets watch nerds excited. The  Speedmaster made history in 1969 when Buzz Aldrin wore his on the moon, making the Speedmaster the first watch to do so. Ever since, the Speedmaster has been NASA’s go-to watch and has proven itself over and over again. If you want an incredibly accurate and precise timepiece with serious street cred, go with the OMEGA Speedmaster.

OMEGA’s line of De Ville watches was first introduced in 1967, and it’s seen a lot of transformations over that time. If you’re looking for a watch that clearly looks luxury, it will be the elegant De Ville.

Ultimately, there’s not a specific type of person you can label as an OMEGA wearer. Each of OMEGA’s models have their own appeal, which is what makes OMEGA such a universally successful brand. And the company has only added to its reputation with its partnerships over the years. So if a watch brand with a long and successful history and a penchant for producing stylish and reliable timepieces works for you, we’d say go for an OMEGA.
