In 1848, at the age of 23, the marks of Louis opened one of etabilissage of counter, a sales office of subcontracting for the manufacture of watch. In 1880, the two C?ar brothers and Louis-Paul Brandt rented a floor with Bienne building to install a modern manufacturing unit of watch. Among the names they chose for their watches "Helvetia", "the Jura", "Celtic", "Gurzelen", and "Patria". With the introduction of the movement of lever of "Labrador "in 1885, the watches carried out a precision of in 30 seconds per day.
In 1889, four years, later, Louis Brandt and Fils was well to the largest producers of the watches to Switzerland, with a production rate of of more than 100.000 watches. But this fact did not stop the exclusiveness in the watches which they produced, for example the wrist watch derépétition, developed in 1892 in association with Audemars Piguet, and probably the first wrist watch of its kind.
Completely new procket-observes the movement of gauge went well to a brilliant interpreter of the market when it entered the production in 1894. They is the principal points for the salability were in him is easily the parts interchangable, and it is simplicity of construction. The banker of company, Henri Rieckel, suggested the "Omega "named for the new watch. The overpowering success of the name of "Omega "led to him being adopted while the single name for all the watches of the company of the name of 1903.The Omega did it is beginning of sports with the contest going up in international balloon for the cup of Gordon Bennet in 1909. Royal bodies of the flight of Great Britain decided to choose watches of Omega in 1917 bus their timekeepers official for them are units of combat, just as the American army in 1918. Omega had their first victory with the contests of synchronization of observatory in Neuch?el in 1919 with their stop watches gaining competition. This was continued a score of the first places well upwards until 1971. The 1933, 1936 and 1946 contests were part of the Omega most remarkable.
In 1957, the "Omega Speedmaster "was created. After rigorous evaluation and the test, NASA decided to use the professional wrist watch of stop watch of "Speedmaster" in 1965 as it is timekeeper official. In 1967, one millionth stop watch was certified.On on July 21, 1969, astronaught Neil Armstrong went well to the first man to take a step on the moon. Because it made the stages famous quoting "a small stage for the man, a giant jump for humanity", it carried its stop watch of professional of Omega Speedmaster. In 1972, Omega recieved them two-millionth stop watch certificate.In 1974 that the legendary sailor-stop watch of "Megaquartz "had a variation of synchronization of newspaper of Juste two thousands one second old, in a test lasting during 63 days.
Over May 18th, 1983, Omega recieved is the 100, 000th official certificate of estimate for quartz stop watches. A museum for the company was open on December 16, 1983. In 1995, presentations were made first automatic wrist watch with a centrally assembled tourbillion. Omega continuous to show it is innovation, with it is the newest addition with the collection of the company in 1999, with the new movement of 2500 gauges looking at to replace the traditional outfall of Switzerland-lever. The clock and watch makers of Omega developed "the coaxial outfall", a creation of the English Master-clock and watch maker, George Dianels, for the series production in wrist watches. The combination of the new outfall and a freely spouted out lately developed balance aims at eliminating the basic preventions with timekeeping regular precis. One almost entirely eliminated the effect the thickness and of viscosity from the lubricant on the amplitude of balance. The new coaxial outfall is composed of three components: a coaxial wheel, a wheel of escape, and a lever with three stones of pallet, unlike the conventional wheel of pallet-lever and escape from the outfall of lever. This prolonged intervals of service at approximately 10 years.
