The Olympic Games Paris 2024 are beginning soon. As the excitement builds, Official Timekeeper Omega is marking the moment with a new Speedmaster Chronoscope in the Olympic colours
The new 43 mm series has four available models, each presented in the gold, black, and white colourway of the Olympic Games Paris 2024. This includes a version in full stainless steel with an anodised aluminium bezel, and another with a ceramic bezel and 18K Moonshine Gold case and bracelet – OMEGA’s own yellow gold alloy, known for its subtle hue and long-lasting shine.
Most notable on each watch is the silvery white opaline dial, which is transferred with three dark grey timing scales in a 1940’s “snail” design. These include a tachymeter scale, a pulsometer scale, and a telemeter scale, bringing a wide range of measurements to the wrist. It’s the perfect tribute to the precise and all-encompassing timekeeping that OMEGA brings to the Olympic Games – a role it has held since 1932.
There are other details to admire from the front as well, such as the blackened sub-dials, Arabic numerals in 18K Moonshine Gold, and leaf-shaped hands and sub-dial hands that are Moonshine Gold-coated. On the reverse side, the Speedmaster Chronoscope Paris 2024 asserts its connection to the Olympic Games with a striking commemorative caseback. The stamped medallion is crafted with a frosted base and features a mirror-polished Paris 2024 logo, along with the stamped words, “Paris 2024” and the Olympic Rings. For those who add this timepiece to their collection, the watch will forever stand as a luxurious homage to the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad.
Finally, it wouldn’t be an Olympic Games watch without sublime accuracy at every second. For that reason, OMEGA has equipped the Speedmaster Chronoscope with the Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 9908 / 9909, certified by METAS at the highest standard of precision, performance, and magnetic resistance in the Swiss watch industry. A further two editions are available in the Speedmaster Chronoscope Paris 2024 collection, including a stainless-steel model on a perforated black calfskin leather strap, and another 18K Moonshine Gold version on a standard black calfskin leather strap.
