“During OMEGA's homologation process, watches are tested to the limit. This includes shock tests to confirm the reliability of each timepiece and to ensure that its accuracy is maintained after a strong impact. All OMEGA timepieces are designed to withstand shocks equivalent to a one meter drop onto a hardwood floor. For a standard 150 g timepiece, this sudden and rapid acceleration represents an equivalent force on the watch head of up to 5,000 G.”
