OMEGA Welcomes Eddie Redmayne to a Swiss Golfing Celebration
Situated far above the golfing greens of Crans-Montana, L’Arnouva is a popular destination for skiers and hikers, offering sensational views all year round. Guests were transported via cable car to the evening’s celebration, which marked OMEGA’s 24th year as the title sponsor of the OMEGA Masters.
Stepping onto stage was the Academy Award-winning actor, Eddie Redmayne, who has been an OMEGA ambassador since 2015. His most notable career roles have included The Trial Of the Chicago 7, Les Misérables, The Danish Girl, the Fantastic Beasts series, and The Theory Of Everything – for which he received the Oscar for ‘Actor in a Leading Role’ amongst other awards. His recent performances in The Good Nurse and Day of the Jackal have also earned him multiple nominations, including at the Golden Globes and Screen Actors Guild Awards.
Visiting in Style
During these past 10 years with OMEGA, I’ve witnessed so many incredible parts of the brand, whether it’s the Olympic Games or the precision on display at their factory. I’ve learned there are always more surprises to uncover.
Amongst the special guests, a group of OMEGA’s golfing ambassadors also attended the evening celebration, including Kim Métraux, Wyndham Clark, Rasmus Hojgaard, Nicolai Hojgaard, Danny Willett, Miguel Angel Jiménez, Erik Van Rooyen, Frank Kennedy and Guido Migliozzi.
Played at the Crans-sur-Sierre Golf Club until 31st of August, the OMEGA Masters is one of OMEGA’s sporting highlights of the year. Originally called the Swiss Open when it was first played in 1923, the high-altitude competition has remained at the same venue since 1939, making it the oldest golf tournament in Europe to be played on the same course every year. OMEGA claimed the naming rights in 2001.
