OMEGA House Milano: A Night of Precision, Celebration, and Olympic Spirit

On Thursday evening, a winter-dressed Milan welcomed us with its unmistakable elegance as OMEGA House opened its doors to the Numéro Switzerland team to continue the celebrations just days before the closing of Milano Cortina 2026. This was no ordinary night, but a special occasion marked by the presence of British actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Italian singer Marco Mengoni, two personalities who embody the contemporary spirit of the brand.

Located at Ristorante CRACCO, inside the iconic Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, OMEGA House Milano highlights the role of OMEGA as Official Timekeeper of the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games. Designed as an intimate yet sophisticated gathering space, the venue has served as the brand’s home from February 8 to 21, offering an immersive experience where sport, hospitality, and Swiss precision naturally converge.

Faithful to its Olympic timekeeping legacy, OMEGA pursues precision not only on the field of competition but also in the personalities who represent its universe. In this sense, Aaron Taylor-Johnson perfectly reflects this pursuit of excellence: a refined presence, a strong cinematic career, and an energy that aligns seamlessly with the maison’s values. The actor joined OMEGA’s family of ambassadors in 2025, appearing in the global campaign for the Planet Ocean collection.

Speaking about the vibrant sporting atmosphere of Milano Cortina 2026, he shared:
“I commend the dedication and perseverance required to be an Olympic or Paralympic athlete. Their strength and capability is so inspiring. I’ve witnessed firsthand the important role OMEGA plays in timekeeping – capturing the record breaking performances of the greatest athletes competing in the Winter Games. I’m proud to represent OMEGA and celebrate the competitors on the world stage.”

The evening also brought together remarkable figures from the international sporting world. Among the guests was Swiss freestyle skier and newly crowned gold medallist Mathilde Gremaud, whom we had the pleasure of meeting and congratulating personally — a moment that perfectly captured the celebratory spirit of the night.

Also in attendance was OMEGA’s President and CEO, Raynald Aeschlimann, who remarked:

“Hosting events at OMEGA House really highlights the positivity that surrounds the Olympic Winter Games. Everyone I talk to is so enthusiastic about the sport – and about the beautiful spirit of Milano Cortina 2026 that we’re all experiencing. It reminds us how much we love sharing this competition with our friends as the Official Timekeeper.”

As the evening unfolded — through conversations, music, and exceptional cuisine — the atmosphere evolved into a warm and genuine celebration. More than an event, OMEGA House Milano felt like a meeting place where time itself — the brand’s defining element — seemed to pause momentarily to celebrate sport, excellence, and community.

By the end of the night, one thing was clear: OMEGA once again achieved what it does best — combining impeccable precision with human emotion, welcoming each guest into an atmosphere defined by celebration and a shared Olympic spirit.
