Omega has been the official timekeeper of the Olympic Games since 1932, revolutionizing sports timing with precision and innovation. At the Los Angeles Olympics that year, Omega provided 30 high-precision stopwatches, marking the beginning of its long-standing partnership with the Games.

In 1948, Omega introduced the first photofinish camera and electronic timing, eliminating human error. The brand continued innovating, debuting touchpads for swimming events in 1968 and advanced false start detection systems in 1984.

Omega also commemorates the Olympics with special edition timepieces, such as the Seamaster Olympic Games Collection, featuring colors inspired by the Olympic rings. The brand’s cutting-edge technology, including motion-sensor cameras and quantum timers, ensures split-second accuracy in modern events.

With nearly a century of Olympic timekeeping, Omega remains a symbol of precision and excellence in sports, reinforcing its legacy as one of the world’s most respected watchmakers.
