Press release
Christmas has come and gone. The gifts were exchanged – maybe last night, maybe this morning, depending on your culture or your own family traditions.
And now you have 364 days before it's time to do it all again. There are only about 8,700 hours to select, buy and wrap next year's presents – less, if you do your shopping early.
And the passing of time is tracked sublimely on the Omega wristwatch she found under the tree. Each glance at the watch reminds her of the best Christmas ever and the special person who gave it to her.
She will notice more of the 525,600 minutes between this Christmas and next than usual because she can't keep her eyes off the dial. And the Omega she received this year will be counting down the days perfectly. Who should be thinking about you each time she looks at her watch ?
