Omega, the Swiss luxury watch manufacturer, has a rich tradition and is showcasing it in the Wrist-Chronograph Limited Edition Collection.The timepieces in the collection currently number 18 and importantly, each is going to feature a CHRO caliber that was created by Omega in 1913. Omega was founded in 1848 and since then the watchmaker has become a byword for high-quality manufacturing. The vaunted caliber that Omega created in 1913 has been refurbished and included in the new limited edition timepieces giving them a “dated” vibe.The company has been busy marketing the timepieces in the Wrist-Chronograph Limited Edition Collection by drawing on its history manufacturing the watches, and its campaign has starred models and clothes from the early 1900s. The launch party, named the “Museum Night,” was held on July 2 in Biel, Switzerland. Importantly, the timepieces are being described as a nice way to own a historic watch without having to make a sacrifice of longevity and durability.Raynald Aeschlimann, the President and CEO of the company, was at the Omega launch party and he unveiled timepieces from the collection. He also outlined how a meticulous process has been followed to rejuvenate the 105-year-old movement that will now feature in the ongoing story of the company.Importantly, the collection showcases how Omega was one of the first companies to manufacture a wrist-chronograph.
