An award for the unfailing reliability of Omega Watches
timekeeping and its numerous innovations, like the first
1/1000 of a second Photo finish camera, the world's first
electronic timing and the Omega scope's elapsed race time
superimposed on the TV screen.

1900, at the
Paris World Fair. At the foot of the Eiffel Tower, a century was
ending whilst another began. Symbol of this link between two eras,
the OMEGA brand received the international jury's Grand Prix for the
excellence of its collection, including the prestigious Greek Temple
watch in chased solid gold.
A proven
champion of precision since 1848, Omega moved quite naturally into
sports timing beginning in 1909. In Los Angeles in 1932, the brand
was named official timekeeper of all Olympic games disciplines
for the first time. A privilege Omega has held twenty-one times
over the course of the century.
In 1952, Omega
itself stepped onto the winners' podium to receive the Olympic Cross
of Merit for "outstanding service to the world of sports".
