The House, located in the beautiful Hôtel de Poulpry, Maison des Polytechniciens, will entertain countless athletes and celebrities alike with themed events, special exhibitions, and more. Longtime Omega ambassadors Cindy Crawford and Nicole Kidman have already attended some of Omega’s Parisian events in style.

Crawford attended Omega House Paris’ opening night with her daughter, Kaia Gerber, in tow. The mother-daughter duo looked gorgeous in black dresses accessorized with Omega timepieces. Also in attendance was Olympic track star Gabby Thomas, who will compete in the women’s 200-meter sprint on August 6 and two relay events later that week alongside the talented Sha’Carri Richardson.

Crawford is Omega’s longest-serving ambassador, having joined the brand in 1995. Gerber, following in her mother’s footsteps, shared that the brand “always does everything to the highest standard. You can see it when they time the events at the Olympic Games, and you can see it in every detail of the House.”

The quality and precision of Omega timepieces are on full display with this venture. Several exhibits in the house inform guests about the brand’s illustrious history, with two dedicated to the Stadium and Seamaster watch collections. Swanky lounges around the exhibits and a soothing garden out back allow guests to relax. One exhibit, entitled “Her Time,” celebrates women’s watchmaking over a century. Kidman attended in a summery Valentino set with her daughter, Sunday Rose, on July 29. Fans were quick to share the sweet moment online.

Kidman also attended the women’s gymnastics finals on July 30, cheering as the USA team secured yet another gold medal with Simone Biles at the helm. Fans spotted her in the crowd, among several other stars.

In such a high-stakes environment, time is of the essence. Omega’s role as timekeeper is absolutely critical, especially considering that just a hundredth of a second can make or break an athlete’s chances. We can’t wait to see what else Omega House Paris has in store, and time is certainly on their side.
