OMEGA Unveils Seamaster 37mm Milano Cortina 2026 Watch

OMEGA has once again reinforced its legacy as a leader in precision timekeeping with the launch of the Seamaster 37mm Milano Cortina 2026, a timepiece dedicated to the upcoming Olympic Winter Games.

As the world anticipates the Opening Ceremony of Milano Cortina 2026 on February 6, OMEGA celebrates this milestone with a watch that perfectly encapsulates the brand’s unwavering commitment to excellence in both horology and sports timing.

Having served as the Official Timekeeper of the Olympic Games since 1932, OMEGA has consistently introduced innovative timekeeping technologies while crafting some of the most iconic watches in the industry. The Seamaster 37mm Milano Cortina 2026 is the latest addition to this prestigious legacy, merging timeless design with cutting-edge craftsmanship.

This commemorative timepiece represents a seamless fusion of past and present, honoring OMEGA’s decades-long relationship with the Olympic Games. The watch features a 37mm symmetrical case made from 18K Moonshine™ Gold, a proprietary material developed by OMEGA to offer a softer, more enduring gold tone while enhancing durability and resistance to fading.

With its polished finish and distinctive hexagonal crown, the case takes inspiration from the earliest Seamaster models associated with the Olympic Games, maintaining a design ethos that has stood the test of time.

At the core of the Seamaster 37mm Milano Cortina 2026 is a pristine white Grand Feu enamel dial, a hallmark of high-end watchmaking that exudes elegance and technical mastery. The dial serves as a perfect canvas for sculpted 18K Moonshine™ Gold hour markers, which have been meticulously crafted to provide an elevated sense of depth and refinement.

Complementing these markers are diamond-polished and faceted dauphine hands, ensuring maximum legibility while adding a sophisticated touch. OMEGA has also included transferred markings in grey Petit Feu enamel, a subtle yet striking detail that maintains the Seamaster’s signature aesthetic, with a precise minute track and classic typography.

Beyond its stunning design, the Seamaster 37mm Milano Cortina 2026 is powered by one of OMEGA’s most advanced movements—the self-winding Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8807. This movement is a testament to OMEGA’s leadership in watchmaking innovation, delivering exceptional accuracy, durability, and resistance to external forces.

Certified by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS), the Calibre 8807 meets the industry’s most stringent performance standards, ensuring that the watch operates flawlessly under extreme conditions. One of its standout features is its exceptional magnetic resistance, capable of withstanding magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss, a level of protection that sets OMEGA apart from many luxury watch brands.

On the reverse side of the watch, OMEGA has incorporated a special commemorative medallion on the polished caseback, featuring the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Games logo.

This emblem pays tribute to the brand’s long-standing partnership with the Olympics, a collaboration that began at the Los Angeles 1932 Games and has since defined OMEGA’s role as a pioneer in sports timekeeping. The caseback not only adds a collectible aspect to the timepiece but also reinforces its significance as a true Olympic edition.

In keeping with its refined aesthetic, the Seamaster 37mm Milano Cortina 2026 is presented on a luxurious brown leather strap, which perfectly complements the warmth of the 18K Moonshine™ Gold case.

The strap is finished with a matching leather lining and a polished gold buckle, offering both comfort and an elevated sense of style. This combination of fine materials ensures that the watch is as sophisticated as it is versatile, suitable for both formal occasions and everyday wear.

Raynald Aeschlimann, President and CEO of OMEGA, has emphasized the importance of this timepiece in celebrating the brand’s Olympic heritage. He noted that while the Seamaster 37mm design has remained remarkably consistent since the Melbourne 1956 Games, OMEGA’s timekeeping technology has continued to evolve.

This balance between tradition and innovation is what makes OMEGA a leader in the watchmaking world, ensuring that its timepieces remain both historically significant and technologically advanced.

For over nine decades, OMEGA has been at the forefront of Olympic timekeeping, introducing groundbreaking advancements that have changed the way sports are measured. From the first-ever photoelectric cell timing system in 1948 to modern motion sensor and photo-finish technology, the brand has played an integral role in ensuring the highest levels of accuracy in sports.

The Seamaster 37mm Milano Cortina 2026 is a reflection of this enduring dedication to precision, not only as a functional instrument but also as a symbol of OMEGA’s unwavering pursuit of excellence.

This limited-edition Seamaster is more than just a watch; it is a celebration of history, craftsmanship, and the Olympic spirit. It pays homage to the athletes who dedicate their lives to pushing the limits of human performance, much like OMEGA continues to push the boundaries of timekeeping innovation.

The watch is designed for collectors, Olympic enthusiasts, and those who appreciate the intersection of heritage and modernity. With the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Games fast approaching, the Seamaster 37mm Milano Cortina 2026 stands as a remarkable tribute to both OMEGA’s legacy and the excitement of the Olympic Games.

This timepiece embodies everything that has made OMEGA one of the most respected names in luxury watchmaking: a commitment to precision, a passion for innovation, and an enduring connection to the world’s greatest sporting event. As the countdown to the Opening Ceremony continues, this extraordinary watch serves as a timeless reminder of the power of human achievement and the art of Swiss horology.
