company to Bienne Since 1894 company adopted the sole name for all its

watches i.e. “OMEGA”.OMEGA is the last letter of Greek alphabet it means

‘Perfection & success in the attainment of task’.Omega has a merger with Tissot in 1930 & a new

perent company SSIH (societe suisse indrustrie horlogere) was created.

This group eventually grew to over 50 companies including Lanco, Lemania and Hamilton etc.

Communication StrategyOmega follows a multiple celebrity

endorsement strategy.The slogan & theme of the actual campaign is

“Choice”.Attributes use for the transfer of image from

the celebrity to the brands are, Beauty Hedonism & Victory

Beauty Hedonism Victory

Omega is active in a lot of different domain with its ambassadors.

Overall 7 different domains for 14 celebrities. It shows that omega is trying to reach every

segment without being involved in one.Among the attributes territories are well defined

such as, show business for beauty, surf & sailing for

hedonism, motor sports and swimming for victory. Golf is used for both for the hedonistic and the victory attributes.

This coherence can may be help the customer to understand the communication better.

The majority of the advertisements picture male young adults. This shows that Omega really tries to increase recognition on this segment. Therefore communication is aimed at youth.

One is a star today and tomorrow is forgotten. Brand is phenomenon that should find its roots in duration, which is pretty much the opposite of fashion. Therefore, omega rightly chooses to use multiple endorsement in order to avoid dependence on the ambassadors and diversify its risk of a bad celebrity away.
