Why this watch.

Omega Maison Fondée en 1848 — 1986

Introduced in the 1980s as a tribute to Omega’s heritage, this Maison Fondée en 1848 reference pairs modest dress-watch dimensions with purposeful, modern proportions. The stainless steel case and distinctive lugs frame a pristine silver dial beneath a period-correct acrylic crystal, offering a refined neo-vintage presence. Inside beats the Omega 1110, a high-beat, slim automatic derived from the reliable ETA 2892-2, carrying the brand’s focus on thin, accurate movements. For today’s collector, it represents a balanced fusion of heritage design and dependable, serviceable mechanics.
