As official timekeeper to the Olympics, a role it has held since 1932, watch brand Omega is gearing up for Paris in July with a new Speedmaster Chronoscope in the colours of the competition.

The sporty 43mm series has four available models, presented in the gold, black, and white colourway of the Olympic Games Paris 2024. This includes a version in full stainless steel with an anodized aluminium bezel, and another with a ceramic bezel and 18K MoonshineTM Gold case and bracelet – OMEGA’s own yellow gold alloy, known for its subtle hue and long-lasting shine.

Each watch contains a 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.

Blackened subdials, Arabic numerals in 18K MoonshineTM Gold, and leaf-shaped hands and subdial hands that are MoonshineTM Gold coated are also features.

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.

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 MoonshineTM Gold version on a standard black calfskin leather strap.
