The first person we would like to introduce is ski jumper Sara Takanashi, who will be competing for her third time.

Takanashi commented, " The four years since the Pyeongchang Olympics have been a start from zero in creating a new style for myself. " She added, " In Beijing, I want people to see how my jumps have changed over the past four years. My greatest dream is to have people watching me jump and be amazed or feel something new."

This model was born from the traditional chronograph look, simplicity, size and color, and features a stainless steel case and aluminum ring with a bezel equipped with a tachymeter scale. In addition, the sun-brushed gray dial creates a stylish look.

On Takanashi's Instagram, she posts some lovely photos that show her sporty yet elegant look with the message, "Spend your precious time with OMEGA."

Worn by male snowboarder Ayumu Hirano

The second person we would like to introduce is Hirano Ayumu , who competed in skateboarding at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics last year.

Hirano said, " The Olympics really does have a special presence. I feel a strong sense of representing Japan, and it feels like the pinnacle of serious competition. How far can I go after having been snowboarding for many years? I hope to be able to convey something on the big Olympic stage. "

In a photo posted on Hirano's Instagram before he left for Beijing, he can be seen wearing the Seamaster Aqua Terra .

The Seamaster Aqua Terra, which represents OMEGA's long history of involvement with the sea, features a horizontal striped design called the "Teak Concept" that evokes the wooden deck of a luxurious yacht, as well as a sun-brushed blue dial, giving it an adult atmosphere.

It also looks cool against Hirano's relaxed style during his coffee break!

Kodaira's Instagram posts often include pictures of her skating rink, clearly conveying her stoic professionalism as she pursues speed every day.

Worn by male ski jumper Ryoyu Kobayashi...

Finally, we would like to introduce men's ski jumper Kobayashi Ryoyu, who will be competing on the stage for the second time.

Kobayashi spoke passionately, saying, " To win, you need not only skill, but also the ability to turn the tide. I think I have that ability. I want to do my best and aim for the gold medal ."

Unfortunately, there are no photos of Kobayashi wearing the watch on his Instagram, but he has a great fashion sense. There is no doubt that he will look great wearing either of the " Beijing 2022 Olympic Limited Edition " watches.
