TOKYO 2020--Recording Olympic Dream

The Olympic gold medal is the supreme honor of the Olympic Games and represents one of the highest achievements of an athlete's career. As a tribute to the 2020 Olympic Games, OMEGA, the renowned Swiss watchmaking brand, is proud to present two unique watches in yellow 18-carat gold to honor the Olympic athletes in their quest for medals.

The Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games will be the 29th time that OMEGA will be the official timekeeper of the Olympic Games. Excellence, the pursuit of excellence and perseverance are qualities that are essential for athletes to be able to stand on the podium at the Olympic Games, and OMEGA understands and practices these valuable qualities.

Available in 38mm and 41mm, the new Seamaster Aqua Terra all-gold model, crafted in yellow 18K gold, is also a glittering tribute to the excellence of the Olympic athletes.

The new model comes with a blue leather strap and a polished blue ceramic dial decorated with a beautiful laser-engraved motif inspired by the Tokyo 2020 Olympic emblem, with the full emblem transferred to the back of the watch. Inside the watch is an OMEGA Chronometer movement with a daily accuracy of 0 to +5 seconds and resistance to strong magnetic fields of up to 15,000 gauss, achieving higher industry standards in terms of precision, antimagnetism and overall performance. The new Seamaster Aqua Terra "Tokyo 2020" is available in an all-gold version in a special gift box and is backed by a five-year warranty, providing consumers with a solid guarantee.

Michael Phelps is by far the most decorated athlete in Olympic history, with 28 medals, including 23 gold. He has been part of the OMEGA family of celebrity ambassadors since 2004 and knows how important time is for athletes.

Michael Phelps said: "Whether you are an Olympian or want to be an Olympian, you have to be fully committed 24/7. Every second counts and you never stop." He was impressed by the efforts of the medal-winning athletes: "To prepare for the Olympics, you have to train hard and overcome many challenges. It's never easy to compete in the Olympics, but I always believe that hard work will pay off."
