Captured in a new series of black and white portraits and videos, the Swiss watchmaker OMEGA is revealing the unique personalities of its inspiring female ambassadors. In this intimate campaign, each woman is shown with her choice of watch – and the words she lives her life by.
My Choice is the latest continuation of OMEGA’s historic bond with women. For more than 100 years, the company has delivered ladies’ timepieces of true reliability, beauty and versatility – helping to support everyone from nurses and aviators, through to artists and actresses.
Today, OMEGA is proud to be represented around the world by a strong family of female stars. For the latest shoot, the brand was joined by the actresses Nicole Kidman, Zoë Kravitz, So-hee Han and Dongyu Zhou as well as the models Kaia Gerber and Kiko Mizuhara, and legendary athlete Allyson Felix. Free to express themselves through style and words, each star was given the space to show their true character.
Spirit, talent, power and beauty. These gifted individuals from diverse backgrounds and multiple disciplines have all excelled in their own way. They share a drive to succeed, an openness to experience and an appreciation of quality.
The result brings together a selection of classic yet fast moving portraits. In front of the camera, they each show the woman they are today, yet also the confidence they have for the future. Wherever time takes them, as with women from all walks of life, OMEGA will be on hand to celebrate each hour.
The Women and their Watches
“Being free to make choices can be a mystery. But that’s magical, and I love that side of me.”
Zoë Kravitz
Actress, director, model, Zoë can do it all – brilliantly. A singular talent with her own take on style, Zoë Kravitz has earned high praise and loud applause for performances in The Divergent Series, the Fantastic Beasts films, as well as the hit HBO show Big Little Lies, for which she earned a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination. She also stole the show as Catwoman in The Batman. All this and still so much to come. Small wonder Zoë Kravitz is one of the most sought-after individuals in the entertainment industry.
“I get to be powerful, playful, try on moods. Looks, eras, styles… but at the heart of it all… is me.”
Nicole Kidman
Nicole Kidman’s list of awards is a long-read. Oscars, Golden Globes, BAFTA’s, SAG Awards. Hard earned and well deserved tributes to her talent as an actress and producer. In addition to bringing scripted lines gloriously into life, she has used her own words and voice to speak up for the rights of women and children. Nicole Kidman is a phenomenon. A woman with a warm heart and a wicked sense of humour. It’s a huge honour to have her in the family.
“Being yourself is complicated – and that’s a good thing.”
Kaia Gerber
This fashion super nova is one of the most down-to-earth. The proud Californian has secured multiple runway appearances with top designers such as Burberry, Calvin Klein and Versace. She also has a talent for acting, earning roles in TV shows Sister Cities, American Horror Stories and The Palisades. Effortlessly cool, yet always turning heads, Kaia has a natural energy and style that you can’t help but love.
“To truly be yourself, you must be willing to change and grow. Time will reveal all.”
Kiko Mizuhara
Determined to succeed from an early age, Kiko Mizuhara began modelling at 12 years old and has been building an impressive career ever since. As well as gracing the covers of multiple magazines including Vogue, Kiko has dazzled on the big screen, with an acting career that began with the film Norwegian Wood in 2010. For good measure, she has also built her own designer brand “OK”, producing fashion worn by several notable celebrities. Ms. Mizuhara is the ultimate multitasker.
“It’s not about finding yourself, it’s about creating yourself. I like to be open to possibilities – keep things moving.”
Allyson Felix
In top-level competitive athletics, it takes passion, commitment and personal sacrifice just to be good enough to show up. Allyson Felix is the most decorated athlete in the history of track and field. How’s that for strength of character? LA born Allyson is an inspiration to women determined to cross the line first. A sporting legend, with a trophy cabinet filled with gold and huge reserves of positive energy and enthusiasm.
“I know who I am, where I came from, and where I’m going – at all times.”
So-hee Han
So-hee Han shines too bright for life in the shadows. After success in a number of supporting roles, the South Korean star staked her claim to the central characters, earning starring roles in multiple series, including Nevertheless, My Name, and The World of the Married, for which she received wide recognition and acclaim. A winner of multiple awards for her craft, Han is a talent to watch. A woman in the spotlight with her own clear view of the future.
“In many cases, it’s best just to be yourself. Let everyone see your uniqueness.”
Dongyu Zhou
An accomplished actress, capable of delivering convincing and critically acclaimed performances ranging in genres from crime thriller to romantic comedy, Dongyu Zhou is the youngest actress to have been honoured with the three most significant accolades in the history of Chinese film. Her list of top prizes include Best Actress at the 53rd Golden Horse Awards in 2016 for Soul Mate, and best actress for Better Days at the 39th Hong Kong Film Awards and 33rd Golden Rooster Awards. Even a screen veteran would be proud of that list – and Zhou is just getting started.
