GEORGE CLOONEY WITH OMEGA
OMEGA with George Clooney, a longtime ambassador of the brand, were the protagonists of the event held Friday, May 16 in Shanghai.
A celebratory evening in which OMEGA has introduced its new collection WATER EARTH.
The exclusive event was held at "Le Jardin Secret" created specifically for the event with an innovative glass roof allowed all guests a magnificent view of the starry sky of Shanghai. The Garden was characterized by elements that recall the vertical lines that distinguish the dials of the collection Seamaster Water Earth.
During the party, George Clooney told on stage as he began his relationship with OMEGA: "My father wore an OMEGA watch for many years. When I started working with the brand I called him to tell him the great news. He told me that his OMEGA was at home and that after having found and loaded it still worked. I handed it to OMEGA who has reviewed so that I could return to my father on the occasion of his birthday. I have a long long history with the brand”.
Immediately after the speech of the President of OMEGA Stephen Urquhart was a short film of great intensity, focusing on the exceptional work done around the world by Orbis International, the organization supported by OMEGA dealing with its Flying Eye Hospital to provide high quality care in the most remote regions of the world.
George Clooney took off his OMEGA De Ville Hour Vision Annual Calendar: autographed the strap and the box in which it was then stored. The watch has been put on display during the event and in the coming months will be presented in six OMEGA boutique in China. During the year, will be auctioned off and all proceeds will go in favor of Orbis and the wonderful work that continues to play.
Stephan Urquhart said about the brand's friendship with George Clooney:"We are proud to be associated with someone like George Clooney. He is not here tonight just because he's part of the OMEGA team but because he brings OMEGA in his heart”.
