In celebration of the upcoming Olympic Games, OMEGA, the Official Timekeeper since 1932, has introduced a remarkable new timepiece - the OMEGA Paris 2024 Bronze Gold Edition. This exquisite watch pays homage to Olympic glory by incorporating gold, silver, and bronze, the iconic materials of Olympic medals, into its design.

The 39mm case is crafted from OMEGA's exclusive Bronze Gold alloy, a unique material known for its soft pink hue and exceptional corrosion resistance. The dial, made from Ag 925 silver, features a radiant finish, while the slender hands are fashioned from 18K Sedna™ Gold with a special PVD Bronze Gold coating.

Drawing inspiration from a classic OMEGA wristwatch from 1939, the Paris 2024 Bronze Gold Edition boasts a vintage aesthetic. The caseback is engraved with "BG 859," symbolizing the case shape in Bronze Gold. This proprietary alloy contains 37.5% gold (hallmarked as 9K), along with palladium and silver, resulting in a distinctive appearance without the typical verdigris oxidation seen in traditional bronze.

The watch face showcases meticulous attention to detail. The center of the dial features a "Clous de Paris" pattern, a nod to French craftsmanship. A circular brushed pattern adorns the minute track and small seconds subdial at 6 o'clock. The OMEGA logo, presented in dark grey, appears in the brand's heritage style.

On the caseback, a stamped and frosted Olympic Games Paris 2024 medallion further emphasizes the watch's connection to the event. The timepiece is paired with a brown calf-skin leather strap, complete with a sandblasted Bronze Gold buckle featuring a polished vintage OMEGA logo in positive relief. This same logo is embossed on the watch's crown.

True to OMEGA's commitment to precision, the Paris 2024 Bronze Gold Edition is powered by the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8926. This manual-winding movement is a modern tribute to the vintage 30T2 movement used in earlier models. Each watch comes with a certification card proving it has passed the stringent Master Chronometer tests set by METAS (the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology).

The OMEGA Paris 2024 Bronze Gold Edition will be presented in a special box, making it a coveted collector's item for watch enthusiasts and Olympic fans alike. This timepiece not only celebrates OMEGA's long-standing relationship with the Olympic Games but also showcases the brand's commitment to innovation, precision, and timeless design.
