OMEGA brand ambassadors take time off track to visit OMEGA House
OMEGA brand ambassadors take time off track to visit OMEGA House
Olympic stars and OMEGA brand ambassadors heptathlete Jessica Ennis, pole vaulter Jenn Suhr and sprinter Tyson Gay spent time at the OMEGA House on Wednesday to answer questions on their Olympic experience and what awaits them down the track.
Jessica Ennis, the 26-year-old British sports star, is the face of Team GB during the London 2012 Olympic Games. She dazzled the world last week when she took home gold in the heptathlon competition, winning with a score that not only set her personal best, but a national record as well. She was recognized as one of the dominant athletes of her generation after winning the World and European Championships in the heptathlon as well as a World Indoor Championship in pentathlon.
Jessica Ennis said she was nervous for her competition, but felt prepared at the same time: “I was very much aware that I had to go out there and do it and deliver. There are so many things that can go wrong during the heptathlon so I just wanted to stay really focused. Obviously I believed in myself but I didn’t want to take anything for granted and get carried away”.
As the person standing on top of the podium, brand ambassador Jessica Ennis is very aware of the importance the timekeeping system has in Olympic events. “Those fractions of time make such a huge difference. And it’s great to have OMEGA that has supported us for so long, especially here in London”, she said. “To be an OMEGA ambassador is really special”.
American pole vaulter Jenn Suhr has again established herself as the world’s top-ranked women’s in her sport. On Monday night, the OMEGA brand ambassador claimed gold when she cleared 4.75m in the women’s Pole Vault competition; she is also recognized as the U.S. women’s pole vault record-holder.
Jenn Suhr has been appreciating her victory and taking the time to absorb the experience: “I want to keep the moment as long as I can,” she said. “It’s been fabulous; the whole experience has been amazing. The crowd has lifted me up through the whole thing.”
Tyson Gay, American 100m sprinter, embodies the determined charismatic characteristics that OMEGA treasures in its ambassadors. He is a prime example of what the human body can accomplish when pushed to the limits. In the time leading up to the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the world’s sporting media and track and field fans were focused on Tyson’s every move – his wind-aided 9.68 second performance in the 100-metre trials was the fastest time ever recorded for the distance.
“My experience has had some ups and downs. Right now, I’m looking back on the upside”, said OMEGA ambassador Tyson Gay. “Not medaling was a downer for me, but I’m looking forward to the 4x100m Relay”.
OMEGA is incredibly proud of its track & field brand ambassadors and congratulates them on their success at the London 2012 Olympic Games and the time leading up to their events. OMEGA recognizes and appreciates the high level of competition in each event seen at the Olympic Games and applauds Jessica Ennis, Jenn Suhr and Tyson Gay for their participation in the Games and their incredible record-setting abilities.
The OMEGA House is the brand’s social activity hub through the London 2012 Olympic Games and is located in the heart of London’s Soho district.

Bradley Wiggins and Jessica Ennis among Olympic stars at secret Stone Roses gig
It seems the heroes of Team GB made up much of the guest list at last night's secret gig by legendary band The Stone Roses.
Gold medal heroes Bradley Wiggins and Jessica Ennis showed off their gongs for waiting photographers before attending the concert at tiny East London venue The Village Underground, convenienly located a hop, skip and a jump from the Olympic Village.
Cycling hero Bradley is known to be a keen guitarist and lover of all things mod, so he will have been particularly chuffed to bump into one of his musical idols.

Omega Westfield Stratford Launch Party
Olympic Ambassador Jessica Ennis celebrates the launch of OMEGA Westfield Stratford with an intimate evening of music headlined by local talent Professor Green...
Last night saw a host of celebrities brave the wind and the rain to flock to the OMEGA Westfield Stratford Boutique Launch. OMEGA, Official Timekeepers of the London 2012 Olympics, launched its largest boutique in Europe at the gateway to the Olympic Park celebrating East London, the Olympics and some of the best talent from the UK including sport, music, T.V, fashion and film with OMEGA President Stephen Urquhart and Jessica Ennis hosting the evening.
Much loved TV presenter and silver fox George Lamb kicked off the festivities whilst guests drank champagne and Molecular Margaritas. Self-announced Tequila fan, Benedict Cumberbatch was seen trying all four flavours whilst getting ‘Old Boys’ sporting Rugby tips from Rob Webber and Ollie Phillips with some light hearted banter flying about on their WASPs game on Saturday.
Heads swiftly turned when co-host and one of the UK’s British Gold medal hopefuls, Jessica Ennis dazzled the crowd in a jaw dropping black and white ensemble, a far cry from her track gear. Fashionistas Percy Parker and Amy Molyneux both gave their fashion stamp of approval and were heard literally gasping at how beautiful she was. Showcasing another of her talents Jessica also took to the decks with George Lamb to show him how it’s done.
British Songstress Charlene Soraia’s dulcet tones showcased boxing’s hard man David Haye’s softer side as he stood in awe of her raw talent, after which he spoke to her at length making an unlikely alliance again showcasing an eclectic mix of British talent. The highlight of the evening was an amazing set by Professor Green and DJ I.Q. Even male super-model David Gandy rushed to the front of the stage to see UK music sensation blow the roof off the party, although he had competition for his space when Pro Green fans, The Overtones bustled in to see their favourite artist perform a stellar set too.
Immodesty Blaize and Henry Conway were, as usual, in cahoots but swiftly forgot their East London fashion ‘cool’ when faced with sporting legend Linford Christie. Another example of fashion and sports going hand in hand was Patrick Grant and Olympic swimmer Mark Foster chatting about the importance of a Saville Row suit, especially as Mark finds the perfect fit hard to come by due to his swimmers frame. Tudor’s Tamzin Merchant and toy-boy and The Three Musketeers actor Freddie Fox where found canoodling in a corner and looking very much loves young dream with only eyes for each other, and of course the OMEGA watches.
