Eddie Redmayne, the young British actor who won an Oscar and Goden Globe for his role as Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything, has been named International Ambassador of Swiss watch brand Omega.

Stephen Urquhart, President of OMEGA said, "We are absolutely delighted to welcome Eddie to the OMEGA family.  He brings true elegance and integrity, and is incredibly humble about his success – something that sits perfectly with the OMEGA spirit. We very much look forward to working together."

The actor himself says he's worn Omega for years, and added: "To join a brand whose own credentials include the only watch to be officially certified by NASA, and the Official Timekeeper of the Olympic Games is an honour."

Other Omega ambassadors include Cindy Crawford and George Clooney.
