Omega Markies

In the meticulous collection of the Amsterdam Watch Company (AWCo), this unique piece shines, a watch that perfectly bridges the gap between traditional craftsmanship and a surprising, almost jewel-like design.

The eye is immediately drawn by the unique shape of the case. This is not an average, round, or square design; the shape is bold and striking, a subtle invitation to admire the watch from all sides.
This distinctive character is enhanced by the elegant lugs. These rare, almost architectural attachment points are a nod to the early wristwatches of over a century ago, when pocket watches were converted for the wrist. They give the watch a light, subtle appearance and ensure that the bracelet has an elegant look. Furthermore, the sapphire-encrusted crystal immediately draws the eye, making this watch special. Unique, elegant.

As the icing on the cake, the dial is subtly set with 10 brilliant-cut diamonds. These surprising accents catch the light and elevate the watch from a mere timekeeper to a true piece of jewelry. The blue strap completes the look and gives this beautiful, detailed timepiece a luxurious touch. For the woman who appreciates subtlety and elegance, this AWCo watch is more than just a piece of jewelry; it’s a wearable work of art with soul and a beautiful design that commands attention.

Omega was founded in La chaux-de-fonds by Louis Brandt in 1848, although the company would not be named Omega until 1903. It is one of the most successful Swiss watch houses, both in terms of sales and historical significance.

Louis Brandt was already rather innovative before his Omega days. He developed the very first minute-repeater wristwatch with Audemars Piguet in 1892. Although Brandt died in 1903, Omega would not lose its innovative nature. Among its biggest accomplishments are the manufacture of the first tourbillon wristwatch movement in 1947 and the first large-scale commercial implementation of George Daniels’ co-axial escapement in 1999.

The biggest highlight in Omega’s history is undoubtedly the moon landing in 1969. Both Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin wore Omega Speedmasters on the lunar surface. But there is so much more to this Swiss powerhouse. They launched the very first dive watch with the Omega Marine, all the way back in 1932. That is some twenty years before the Blancpain Fifty-Fathoms and Rolex Submariner would redefine the category.

Omega has no shortage of hit collections. From the Speedmaster to the Seamaster and from the Constellation to the De Ville, with tons and tons of variations within all of those lines. You may opt for a yellow gold pie-pan Constellation or for a chunky Ploprof. There is something for everyone.

And that is before we go into Omega’s military history, including the Dirty dozen MOD-issued field watch. And we cannot forget James Bond, with his tricked out Seamasters since 1995’s Goldeneye.

No wonder then, that we love Omega so much!
