Consider the Omega support of the Olympics and the Paralympics this year. Yes, they are the Official Timekeeper and have their name and logo plastered on everything they can. But in this arena, perhaps more than most others, they really have a job to do. They have the responsibility of timing to the microsecond athletes at their highest level while being watched over by the world. There were of course special releases for the event itself, usually looked upon as mementos or ways to commemorate the trip, like the very retro-looking Omega Paris 2024 Bronze Gold Edition. Yes, that is an unusual name; it is meant to celebrate the three different medals, so be glad they didn’t also include silver, because the watch itself incorporates all three materials. The 39mm case uses Omega’s exclusive Bronze Gold, the dial is a nicely worked Ag 925 Silver and the hands are 18K..
