History of Omega
In 1848, at the age of 23, Louis Brandt opened a counter in La Chaux-de-Fonds, in the canton of Neuchâtel. His watch bears the mark "Louis Brandt".
In 1879, the two sons of the founder, Louis-Paul and César Brandt, decided to embark on the path of “American-style” industrial manufacturing. Due to the shortage of skilled labor and available space and opposition from competitors, La Chaux-de-Fonds did not seem to suit them. After considering several villages in the Jura, they settled permanently in Buena, in the canton of Bern, which was better positioned logistically (transport, labour, energy supply, etc.). In January 1880, they launched their first machined movement. The product was reliable and affordable, and it was an impressive success. From the second half of 1880, the company employed 250 people and launched the first brand. At the time, the company was working 59.5 hours a week, below the legal maximum of 65 hours. Ten years ago, the company became the biggest company in the Swiss watch industry, employing 600 people and producing 100,000 watches a year. The quality of the production is recognized by the Swiss Confederation and abroad.
I need a watch winder for my Omega watch ?
If you don't wear your Omega every day, consider putting it on a watch winder, because your Omega needs to be wound a certain number of times a day to fully wind the mainspring and extend its life.
A watch winder is a luxury device that maintains your Omega without worrying about winding it.
But if you wear your Omega every day, you don't need to put it in your winder.
Rotation direction for Omega
The watch winder must work properly to properly wind your Omega. It must be able to rotate clockwise, counter-clockwise and in both directions.
If your Omega needs to be wound clockwise, turning your watch counter-clockwise will not power it, so it will not be wound. To find out the direction of rotation of your Omega, you can follow our winding parameters for Omega.
Tours per day for Omega
The minimum number of revolutions an automatic watch needs to gain power often varies from day to day.
