Brand ambassadors

There is two types of brand ambassadors, the one that the brand employed to promote the brand and the loyal customers that promote the brand just because they love it.

Swatch Brand Ambassadors
Swatch has two kind of ambassadors, the ones related to sports and the other one related to creativity.
For the sports ambassadors, Swatch has 25 successful athletes called the Pro-Team. A watch has been designed for each member of the Pro-Team and they wear it on different events to reach the communities associated with these events. As it is successful athletes, people admire them. They can know which are their favorites Swatch watches on Swatch website. These ambassadors contribute the young, cool and dynamic image of the brand. As only top snowboarders, surfers or FMX riders can be Swatch's ambassadors each year, the brand is never associated with only one member.


For the ambassadors that are not athletes, Swatch choose people with common values like creative diversity with Mika and its watch Kukulakuku or OFF of the artist José Carlos Casado.
