Notes

The Century The Century line was introduced in 1952 and used in some markets: Switzerland, Italy, France, United States and Canada to designate a part of Omega?s collection of 30 mm models. It was updated in the 1960s and continued until the name was sold in 1967. See: Omega, A Journey Through Time, Marco Richon, 2007, p. 475.
