To mark the beginning of the Paralympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026, and to honour the inspiring athletes who are competing, the Official Timekeeper OMEGA unveils an exclusive new timepiece dedicated to the occasion.
The overall design of this 43.5 mm Seamaster Diver 300M is inspired by the Milano Cortina 2026 emblem, allowing sports fans to own a genuine tribute to this historic Paralympic Winter Games occasion. Each OMEGA piece is delivered inside a special Milano Cortina 2026 presentation box, adding even more prestige to this exclusive keepsake.
To begin the wintry inspiration, OMEGA has crafted the timepiece in white ceramic and grade 5 titanium – two materials that combine sleek beauty with lightweight strength. These materials are finished in a variety of ways, helping to create contrasting surfaces around the design. This includes the polished-brushed case body, the sandblasted helium escape valve and crown, and the white ceramic bezel ring, which features a laser-ablated diving scale in positive relief.
On the dial, OMEGA has created a unique effect in honour of these Paralympic Winter Games. Made in white ceramic, it reveals laser-engraved frosting, with a finger trace pattern inspired by the “26” of the Milano Cortina 2026 emblem. Completing the dial design, the rhodium-plated hands and indexes have been filled with white Super-LumiNova, while the varnished central seconds hand has been given a red, blue, and green gradient – colours that are shared with the competition logo.
A final Paralympic homage is presented on the grade 5 titanium caseback, where OMEGA has placed a stamped Milano Cortina 2026 emblem, forever associating this watch with the XIV Paralympic Winter Games.
Worn on an integrated white rubber strap, with its buckle in grade 5 titanium, this unique Seamaster Diver 300M is powered by the Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8806. Featuring a power reserve of 55 hours and certified at the Swiss industry’s highest standard, it offers a level of precision and performance that any athlete would be proud of.
The Paralympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026 will be competed between March 6th and 15th. Continuing a role that began in 1992, OMEGA will fulfil the duties of Official Timekeeper, bringing its legacy of precision, expertise, and innovation to the competition. The Swiss brand will record all of the 79 events across 6 sports, ensuring total reliability in the moments that matter.
