With just 100 days remaining until the highly anticipated Olympic Games Paris 2024, OMEGA, the Official Timekeeper, has unveiled a special edition of the Speedmaster Chronoscope to commemorate this momentous occasion. The new 43mm series comprises four distinct models, each adorned in the iconic gold, black, and white colorway of the Paris 2024 Olympics.

Among the collection is a stainless steel version featuring an anodized aluminum bezel, and a luxurious 18K Moonshine™ Gold case and bracelet variant with a ceramic bezel. OMEGA's proprietary Moonshine™ Gold alloy is renowned for its subtle hue and long-lasting shine, making it a perfect choice for this celebratory timepiece.

The most striking feature of each watch is the silvery white opaline dial, which is transferred with three dark grey timing scales in a vintage-inspired "snail" design. These scales include a tachymeter, a pulsometer, and a telemeter, offering a wide range of measurement capabilities on the wrist – a fitting tribute to OMEGA's role as the precise and comprehensive Official Timekeeper of the Olympic Games since 1932.

Further enhancing the dial's aesthetics are blackened subdials, Arabic numerals crafted from 18K Moonshine™ Gold, and leaf-shaped hands and subdial hands coated in the same luxurious alloy.

On the reverse side, the Speedmaster Chronoscope Paris 2024 proudly flaunts its connection to the Olympic Games through a striking commemorative caseback. The stamped medallion features a frosted base adorned with a mirror-polished Paris 2024 logo, accompanied by the engraved words "Paris 2024" and the iconic Olympic Rings. For collectors who acquire this timepiece, it will forever serve as a luxurious homage to the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad.

Ensuring unparalleled accuracy befitting an Olympic Games timepiece, OMEGA has equipped the Speedmaster Chronoscope with the Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 9908/9909. This movement is certified by METAS at the highest standard of precision, performance, and magnetic resistance in the Swiss watch industry.

Rounding out the Speedmaster Chronoscope Paris 2024 collection are two additional editions: a stainless steel model on a perforated black calfskin leather strap, and an 18K Moonshine™ Gold version on a standard black calfskin leather strap.
