In exactly one year’s time, the world will be eagerly anticipating the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games Paris 2024. To mark the countdown to this momentous sporting event, OMEGA, the Official Timekeeper of the Games, is proud to unveil a special edition timepiece that exudes elegance and sophistication.
The Seamaster Diver 300M “Paris 2024” Special Edition watch has been meticulously crafted as an exclusive tribute to the XXXIII Olympiad. This edition of the Olympic Games will be OMEGA’s 31st time serving as the Official Timekeeper, a role they have fulfilled since 1932.
For now, this exquisite 42 mm timepiece will only be available at OMEGA Boutiques in the host city, Paris. It is expertly crafted from stainless steel and OMEGA’s proprietary 18K MoonshineTM Gold alloy, which offers a subtle hue and exceptional resistance to fading. The use of gold in this Olympic Games edition watch is a symbolic inclusion, representing the coveted medals that athletes strive to achieve. The gold is prominently featured on the watch’s bezel, which showcases a laser-structured diving scale in positive relief, along with a single dot of Super-LumiNova at 12 o’clock for enhanced visibility.
The laser-engraved dial of the watch is truly captivating. Made from white ceramic, it boasts a matte finish with polished waves in positive relief. The date display at 6 o’clock cleverly incorporates the Paris 2024 typography, while the central seconds hand proudly displays a small yet visible Paris 2024 emblem.
These remarkable details are not the only distinguishing features of this exceptional timepiece. The commemorative caseback reveals an inlayed 18K MoonshineTM Gold medallion, showcasing the distinctive element of the Paris 2024 emblem against a laser-ablated background. This is complemented by the stamped words “Paris 2024” and the iconic Olympic Rings in stainless steel, polished on a frosted structure, completing the Paris 2024 emblem.
The watch is elegantly worn on a stainless steel bracelet equipped with OMEGA’s innovative Quick Change System, allowing the wearer to easily switch to a more personalized strap. Options include a Quick Change rubber strap in blue, white, or red, or even a dedicated Paris 2024 NATO Strap.
In keeping with OMEGA’s commitment to excellence, the Seamaster Diver 300M upholds the highest standards of precision and performance. Powered by the Co-Axial Master Chronometer 8800 movement, this timepiece has undergone rigorous testing and certification by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS) to ensure exceptional quality and accuracy.
The Olympic Games Paris 2024 will commence on July 26th, 2024. As the Official Timekeeper, OMEGA has dedicated over 90 years to developing and improving the most advanced technologies in sports measurement, while also capturing the dreams and achievements of the world’s finest athletes.
