Our story

Timepieces built for the men who earned their place.

We didn't set out to make another watch. We set out to make something worthy of the journey: the brothers, the bonds, and the moments that define who you become.

Who we are

Make timepieces with meaning.

We carry forward a legacy of inventive watchmaking with a clear mission: build timepieces that express identity. Our authentic, licensed watches integrate contemporary fraternal design cues with patented UV-LED technology, creating layered visuals that shift from day to night.

We formed OMG Watch Co. to give Greek fraternities something that felt worthy of the journey. When we scanned the space, we saw a lot of sameness: pieces that missed the ceremony of earning your letters. So we reimagined the experience from materials and finishing to emblematic details, to deliver watches that carry weight and spark pride.

Original. Fun. Unapologetically authentic.

The people behind OMG

Where vision, experience, and innovation meet.

Michael Houtkin Founder & CEO

Michael Houtkin

Mike is an entrepreneur and proud Alpha Tau Omega brother since 2000. His years in ATO gave a lifelong entrepreneurial instinct something deeply personal to build around: the friendships, traditions, mentorship, and milestones of fraternity life.

He saw an opportunity to create something more meaningful than another piece of branded merchandise. A timepiece could carry the identity of an organization while marking the achievements, relationships, and moments that make belonging to it matter. That idea became OMG Watch Co.

“The things we wear can mean something.”
Doug Mendoza Leadership & Strategy

Doug Mendoza

Doug is a seasoned business executive, entrepreneur, and strategic advisor with more than 45 years of experience building and guiding businesses across technology, professional services, and emerging industries.

At OMG, he provides the business discipline needed to turn an innovative product into a viable, scalable company without losing what makes it different: a creative boutique watch brand with distinctive technology and a strong sense of belonging.

“My role is to give a great idea the structure, direction, and strategy it needs to become a great company.”
Sara Keen Director of Brand, Marketing & Creative

Sara Keen

A lifelong creative, entrepreneur, and digital strategist, Sara saw the bigger picture behind OMG. What began with social media grew into the creative direction, brand strategy, marketing, digital design, storytelling, campaigns, photography, partnerships, proposals, AI, and online presence behind the company.

Today, she leads the creative ecosystem behind OMG, translating its mission, technology, and vision into a brand designed to make people feel the same connection to their communities that inspired the watches themselves.

“I’m here to take the big ideas, the messy pieces, and the things that sound a little crazy at first, and turn them into something people can see, feel, and believe in.”

What we stand for

Connection. Community.
Brotherhood. Lifestyle.

01

Connection

Symbols that unite. Every watch carries the crest, colors, and identity of a chapter, worn by the men who belong to it.

02

Community

Support with impact. Twenty percent of profits from every fraternity collection go directly back to that organization.

03

Brotherhood

Bonds built to last. Pieces that outlast the calendar, rooted in where it started.

04

Lifestyle

Integrity, unity, tradition. An OMG watch isn't just what you wear. It's how you carry yourself.

The craft

Built on a legacy of inventive watchmaking.

Every watch begins with a custom 5-jewel Swiss quartz movement, three hands, gold finish, built for a battery life of up to five years under normal use.

AAA-hardened mineral crystals with eighteen UV-blocking layers ensure enduring clarity. Our patented UV-LED system creates three distinctly different appearances, daylight, illumination, and afterglow.
