Omega Megaquartz 32 kHz

Omega Megaquartz 32 kHz

The Omega Megaquartz 32 kHz was a technological milestone in the 1970s, setting new standards for wristwatch precision. With a frequency of 32,768 Hz, it surpassed most mechanical chronometers of its time and marked Omega's claim to produce the most accurate watches in the world.

The elegant tonneau-shaped case with the brushed dial and the characteristic red crown with the Omega logo reflects the innovative design spirit of that time. The easy-to-read display of the day of the week and date at 3 o'clock as well as the fine line indices give the watch a classic yet modern aesthetic.

These Megaquartz models were designed as luxury quartz watches and remained in the Omega catalog until the early 1980s. Today they are sought-after collector's items and represent the technological avant-garde of their time.
