Going for Bronze silver gold

With the Tokyo Olympics in full swing, Olympic fever is at an all-time high with the excitement for this international sporting event. Postponed from its original date in 2020, the Olympic games in Tokyo has forged ahead, bringing elation, anticipation, ambition, and healthy competition as athletes unite with a common goal – to achieve a spot on the podium and an Olympic bronze, silver, or gold medal in their dedicated sport.

Inspired by the ancient Olympic Games held in Olympia, Greece, from the 8th Century BC, the modern games first began in 1896 and has since expanded to include the Winter Olympic Games, Paralympic Games, and the Youth Olympic Games. World class athletes represent nearly every nation and compete in their dedicated sports as a global audience supports their strengths and achievements in awe.

OMEGA has supplied state-of-the-art timekeeping services for an incredible 29 games and its global partnership has been extended through to 2032. It is undeniably the authority in precision and ultimately the determiner of the winner of the coveted Gold, Silver, or Bronze, medals. With timing and medals being at the forefront of our minds, we have highlighted some of our favourite bronze, silver, and gold, luxury timepieces, each of which are victorious in their craftsmanship, creativity, and style with a fastidious reliability.
