Omega started in 1848 as a small pocket watch shop, and became the largest watch company in Switzerland, manufacturing 240,000 watches annually. Omega has made innumerable contributions to watch-making history, including the first watch on the moon, and five subsequent lunar landings, the first divers' watch, the world's only certified marine chronometer, the inventor of the James Bond watch, and more records for accuracy than any other watch company. Omega has also been the official timekeeper of the Olympic Games since 1932.
