For every athlete, the dream of winning sits at the apex of sporting achievement and for the most elite sportsmen, the path to the Olympic Games is a lifelong dream. What determines podium finishes is precision sports timing where in many sports, split-seconds can separate gold from silver and silver from bronze, defining history and the destiny of the competitors as well as inspiring billions of spectators at home and in the stadiums with the triumph of what the human spirit is capable of in a fleeting instant. Since 1932, OMEGA has been the Official Timekeeper for almost every Olympic Games, an agreement with the International Olympic Committee that was recently extended to 2032. As a leading force in researching, developing and mastering the technologies that capture each second, OMEGA has introduced many precision sports-timing systems, such as touchpads, photo-finish cameras, starting blocks, false-start detection technology and high-speed video systems, that make victory indisputable. As the Official Timekeeper of Paris 2024, OMEGA is launching a special watch, the OMEGA Paris 2024 Bronze Gold Edition, a nod to the coveted podium prizes at the Olympic Games: gold, silver and bronze medals. Incorporating the three legendary materials into one collectible design, the commemorative timepiece sports a 39 mm case, crafted in OMEGA&rsquo;s exclusive Bronze Gold; a radiant dial made from Ag 925 silver; and slender hands in 18K Sedna&trade; Gold with a special PVD Bronze Gold coating.

More than just a homage to the Olympics, the Paris 2024 Bronze Gold Edition is a testament to the illustrious alliance between OMEGA and the sporting world underscored by an unwavering commitment to precision and accuracy. The watch&rsquo;s vintage aesthetic riffs off a classic 1939 OMEGA wristwatch that housed the famous OMEGA 30T manualwinding small seconds calibre and referencing the &ldquo;CK 859&rdquo; in relation to material and case shape. This new watch continues the tradition with a &ldquo;BG 859&rdquo; engraving with the addition of a stamped and frosted Olympic Games Paris 2024 medallion on the case back. The watch case in the brand&rsquo;s proprietary Bronze Gold alloy, emanating a soft pink hue, is enriched with 37.5% gold, hallmarked as 9K, as well as palladium and silver besides being corrosion-resistant without verdigrisoxidation. Further complementing the timepiece&rsquo;s oldworld vibe is the &ldquo;Clous de Paris&rdquo; pattern, an emblem of French craftsmanship, at the dial centre, a circular brushed pattern on the minute track and a small seconds subdial at 6 o&rsquo;clock, along with the dark grey OMEGA logo in a heritage style. Secured to the wrist by a brown calf-skin leather strap, the timepiece features a sandblasted Bronze Gold buckle adorned with the OMEGA logo in positive relief that is also embossed on the crown. Finally, upholding the Olympic spirit of peak performance, the Paris 2024 Bronze Gold Edition is powered by the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8926, a manual-winding movement that is a modern adaptation of the vintage 30T2. Replete with a Master Chronometer by METAS certification, guaranteeing exceptional precision and reliability, the watch is presented in a special box, making it a treasured addition to any watch collection.
