Swiss athletics proudly welcomes Audrey Werro into the family of OMEGA ambassadorThe Bienne watch brand has made official its collaboration with one of the most promising protagonists of world middle distance running, the protagonist of a season that led her to set new chronometric benchmarks and consolidate her position among the best performers in the 800 metres.
The announcement confirms the company's commitment to continuing to invest in athletes who represent the present and future of sport, nurturing talent, determination, and perseverance—qualities that have always characterized OMEGA's relationship with major international competitions.
A visit to the Bienne headquarters
To celebrate the start of the collaboration, Audrey Werro visited OMEGA's headquarters in Biel, where she gained an up-close experience of the manufacturing tradition and craftsmanship that have accompanied the Swiss brand since 1848.
The meeting also provided an opportunity to delve deeper into the corporate culture of a company that, over nearly two centuries, has built its reputation in the fine watchmaking and sports timekeeping sectors.
Raynald Aeschlimann, President and CEO of OMEGA, welcomed the young athlete's arrival, noting that her competitive career has already seen significant results and steady growth. According to the manager, Werro perfectly embodies the values of excellence, commitment, and precision that the brand has long associated with the world of athletics.
An ever-growing talent
The Swiss middle-distance runner's career has been marked by constant progression. After distinguishing herself in the Under-20 and Under-23 categories with numerous international medals and several national youth records, Werro has successfully translated her potential into senior competitions as well.
The 800-meter specialist has quickly established herself as one of the discipline's leading athletes thanks to performances that have attracted international attention.
Her racing style, characterized by speed, tactical management and consistency, has made her one of the most interesting protagonists of the new generation of European athletics.
A 2026 full of results
The 2026 season marked a significant acceleration in the Swiss middle-distance runner's career.
At the World Indoor Championships held in Toruń, Poland, Werro won the silver medal in the 800 meters, confirming his competitiveness also at major international events.
A few months later, one of the most significant results of her career arrived. During the Diamond League leg in Stockholm, she won the 800-meter race, setting a new Swiss record with a time of 1:53.98.
A performance destined to go down in the history of the specialty: the time was in fact the third fastest time ever achieved over the distance and the fastest recorded in the last forty-three years.
But her growth didn't stop there. In the next Diamond League event in Paris, Audrey Werro further improved the Swiss national record, clocking 1:53.80, confirming her extraordinary athletic condition.
From the Olympic experience to the next goals
The middle-distance runner had already represented Switzerland at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, an experience that contributed to her competitive development and which today represents an important step towards the next major international events.
The focus now turns to the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games, a goal that will accompany the athlete's next sporting seasons and which could bring new satisfaction both personally and for Swiss athletics.
The connection between OMEGA and athletics
The agreement with Audrey Werro continues a long-standing tradition that links OMEGA to the world of athletics.
The company has been the Official Timekeeper of the Olympic Games since 1932, an experience that has since been extended to the Paralympic Games and the Diamond League circuit. This ongoing presence has allowed the brand to develop technologies dedicated to sports timekeeping and build relationships with numerous international champions.
Over the years, the family of ambassadors has grown to include some of the most important figures in world sport, confirming the company's desire to support athletes who embody values such as precision, reliability, and the pursuit of maximum performance.
A collaboration that enhances Swiss talent
For Audrey Werro, joining the ambassador team means supporting a brand deeply rooted in Swiss tradition and internationally recognized for its role in major sporting competitions.
The athlete expressed his satisfaction with this new experience, recalling how OMEGA represents a benchmark among athletes thanks to its reliable timekeeping and underscoring his pride in being able to collaborate with a company that represents Switzerland around the world.
With increasingly competitive results and seemingly unstoppable growth, the young middle-distance runner is now preparing to face the next international challenges, supported by a partnership that unites two Swiss excellences united by the pursuit of precision and maximum performance.
