Backed by a significant history of producing military watches dating back to the First World War, Omega quietly continues to produce customized “Unit Watches” for select government organizations and military units including the US Navy SEALs, US Secret Service, Danish Frogman Corps, and more. Intriguingly, despite being one of the world’s largest watch brands and no stranger to mass marketing, Omega’s unit watch program isn’t officially acknowledged.
In the newest episode on the W.O.E. YouTube Channel, we pull back the curtain on Omega’s modern unit watch program, using specific examples and intel gathered from the world of SpecOps to show that at least for Omega, the Use Your Tools ethos is alive and well. And no, you can’t have a custom unit Seamaster for your local watch meetup.
Enjoy episode fourteen of W.O.E. TV.
Happy Hunting,

Love this site.
Love it, love it, love it…..
I know Rolex was approached to do the same thing to one extent or another, but turned it down.
Good for Omega.
What about the mythical white faced Rolex Explorerll for the U.K’s Special Reconnaissance Regiment?
Was this ever debunked as just bullshit?
I’ve never been able to ascertain its authenticity.
