History:
The History of a Successful Company Omega was founded by Louis Brandt at
La Chaux – de –
Fonds, Switzerland
in 1848 as a assembly workshop. In 1879, after his death, his two sons Louis
Paul and César started the in-house manufacturing so they started having total
production control. One year later, Omega moved into a small factory that became
a huge one when 12 months later they bought the entire building. In 1903, they
both died leaving the company in 24 years old, Paul Emile Brandt’s hands.
Because of the crisis that the Second World War left, he had to work really
hard in order to face the economic difficulties. He merged Omega with Tissot
calling the new company SSIH. The SSIH group continued to grow and multiply
under his leadership and, by the seventies, it had become Switzerland’s number one producer
of finished watches and number three in the world.
In 1985, the holding company was taken over by a group of private
investors under Nicolas Hayek leadership. It was immediately renamed SMH
(Société suisse de Microélectronique et d’Horlogerie). SMH had a rapid growth
and success becoming today’s top watch producer in the world. Named Swatch
Group in 1998, it now includes Blancpain and Breguet.
