Hi guys,
would you recommend a particular book concerning the history of the firm? I've seen few titles in the Stories sections, that are great. But i was looking for something about the birth of the brand.
thanks!
Francesco

The Omega website actually makes a decent starting point there but it focuses on the high points and glosses over some parts like how the company was sort of on the bones of its arse, producing some second and third rate watches before Swatch took it over and dragged it back to credibility over a period of time.
