Omega BG 859 Specialties Paris 2024 Bronze Gold 522.92.39.21.99.001

In tribute to the three iconic medals at the Olympic and Paralympic Games, this vintage-style timepiece combines gold, silver and bronze in a special celebration of Paris 2024. The unique design is directly inspired by a classic OMEGA wristwatch from 1939 that housed the famous 30T manual-winding small seconds calibre.

The 39 mm brushed case is crafted in OMEGA’s exclusive Bronze Gold, with a polished bezel, and a vintage OMEGA logo embossed on the crown. Behind the domed sapphire crystal, the dial is made from Ag 925 silver, with a “Clous de Paris” pattern at the center and a small seconds subdial at 6 o'clock. In even finer detail, there is a circular brushed pattern on the minute track and subdial minute track, as well as a dark grey vintage OMEGA logo. The 18K Sedna™ Gold hands have been given a special PVD Bronze Gold coating.

On the caseback, the “BG 859” engraving is a reference to Bronze Gold, as well as the shape of the case. This follows the "CK 859" and "OT 859" references used in historic technical sheets. There is also a stamped and frosted medallion with a mirror-polished Paris 2024 logo featuring the iconic Olympic rings.

Customers will receive this timepiece inside a special presentation box. It is worn on a brown calf-skin leather strap, featuring a sandblasted Bronze Gold buckle with a polished vintage OMEGA logo in positive relief. Inside, the watch is driven by the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8926, crafted with a special luxury finish.

Founded in 1848 by Louis Brandt in Switzerland, Omega has grown into one of the most respected and innovative names in watchmaking. The brand’s early focus on precision earned it accolades at international observatories and competitions, setting the stage for decades of horological achievement. Omega became the official timekeeper for the Olympic Games in 1932, and in 1969, the Speedmaster Professional—nicknamed the "Moonwatch"—made history as the first watch worn on the lunar surface during NASA’s Apollo 11 mission. Omega’s innovations continued with the introduction of the Co-Axial escapement in the late 1990s, a groundbreaking movement that dramatically reduced friction and improved long-term accuracy.

Omega’s lineup showcases a wide range of iconic models that reflect the brand’s legacy and versatility. The Seamaster, introduced in 1948, is a favorite among divers and famously worn by James Bond since 1995’s GoldenEye, blending technical capability with cinematic cool. The Speedmaster remains one of the most storied chronographs in existence, while the Constellation is known for its refined design and chronometric precision. The De Ville collection offers a more elegant, dress-focused aesthetic, often featuring high-end complications and meticulous finishing. Omega continues to lead with innovations like Master Chronometer certification, METAS testing, and antimagnetic technology—ensuring that its watches are not just beautiful, but built for the demands of modern life.
