Williams Grand Prix Holdings PLC : ORIS RENEWS SPONSORSHIP WITH THE
WILLIAMS F1 TEAM
24.02.2012 / 13:33

ORIS RENEWS SPONSORSHIP WITH THE WILLIAMS F1 TEAM
24th February 2012. Grove, UK. The Williams F1 Team is pleased to today
confirm that its long-term official watch partner, Oris, has again renewed
its sponsorship of the team ahead of the 2012 FIA Formula One World
Championship.
Oris and Williams entered into partnership in 2003 and have subsequently
enjoyed a strong relationship. New for 2012, the Oris logo has a revised
position on the FW34, and will feature on the cars' front wing pillars as
well as on driver and mechanic overalls, driver gloves and team collateral
as before.
From its original site in the village of Hölstein, Switzerland Oris has
been producing high-quality, purely mechanical watches, from classic
watches to performance sports instruments, for more than a century. The
Oris designers work with the latest technology at the cutting edge of watch
making without sacrificing the traditional values or quality that the
company and its customers demand. All Oris watches incorporate their
hallmark red rotor as an integral element of the design mechanism.
On the upgraded agreement, Oris' Executive Chairman, Ulrich W. Herzog,
commented, 'Renewing the collaboration reinforces our support and
commitment to the Williams F1 Team and the motor sports industry as a
whole. Here at Oris we witness the ongoing dedication of the Williams F1
Team to achieve success, an attribute that we identify with and encourage
as it reflects our own mission statement: real watches for real people.'
Sir Frank Williams, Team Principal of the Williams F1 Team, added, 'Oris is
one of our established and long-term partners and we are delighted that
they have once again renewed their relationship with the team. We have had
a strong and enjoyable partnership with Oris over the past nine years and
the fact that they are renewing their support means a lot to the team as it
demonstrates their commitment to our ambitions for the year as we look to a
more successful 2012. I'd like to thank them once again for their support
and to say that we are all looking forward to working with them again over
the coming year.'
