The engineering experience that made possible a watch like the Constellation was acquired the hard way: in the accuracy contests of the Geneva and Neuchatel observatories. Here, each year, the finest Swiss watches are pitted against the astronomical clock. Here, over the years, Omega has won an as yer unequalled series of precision victories.
