As we keep our eyes glued to Olympic events in Paris 2024, OMEGA, the official timekeeper of the event, unveils cutting-edge watches like the Seamaster Diver and Speedmaster Chronoscope and new technology to capture every record-breaking moment of this historic occasion.
As the world eagerly awaits the pinnacle of athletic excellence, OMEGA reaffirms its role as Official Timekeeper of the Olympics, entrusted with the task of capturing every thrilling moment across 329 events spanning 32 sports. Assuming its role for the 31st time since 1932, the brand continues to deploy trusted equipment that ensures accuracy and fairness across all competitions. Central to OMEGA’s presence at Paris 2024 are the Seamaster Diver 300M Paris 2024 and Speedmaster Chronoscope Paris 2024. These iconic timepieces embody OMEGA’s commitment to performance, combining cutting-edge mechanics with enduring style. The Seamaster Diver 300M, renowned for its underwater excellence, and the Speedmaster Chronoscope, a symbol of precision timing in space and on Earth, stand as testaments to OMEGA’s legacy of innovation and precision.
Selected as the first-ever Official Timekeeper for all events in Los Angeles, the brand made history with 30 high-precision stopwatches accurate to 1/10th of a second. They’ve since pioneered electronic timing, photofinish cameras, and innovations in swimming and athletics. Today, OMEGA uses advanced Quantum Timers and motion sensors to measure performances with incredible accuracy. With over 90 years of unrivalled expertise in precision timekeeping, OMEGA arrives at the 2024 Paris Olympics equipped with its most advanced technology to date.
Crafted in stainless steel and 18K Moonshine Gold, the Seamaster Diver 300M Paris 2024 pays homage to Olympic excellence. It features a white ceramic dial with polished waves, a date display using Paris 2024 typography, and a central seconds hand adorned with the emblem. The caseback showcases an 18K Moonshine Gold medallion with the Paris 2024 emblem against a laser-ablated background, complemented by the iconic Olympic Rings.
The Speedmaster Chronoscope Paris 2024 embodies precision timing in a 43 mm design that reflects the colours of Paris 2024. It features a silvery white opaline dial with dark grey timing scales in a vintage ‘snail’ design, including a tachymeter, pulsometer, and telemeter scale.
