---------------------------------------------------------------------?THE WILLIAMS F1 TEAM AND ORIS CONTINUE THEIR LONG STANDING PARTNERSHIP
22 February 2013. Grove, UK. The Williams F1 Team (Ticker: WGF1) is
pleased to announce that its long-term Official Watch Partner, Oris, has
again renewed and upgraded its sponsorship of the team ahead of the 2013
FIA Formula One World Championship.
This will be Oris' eleventh full season as an Official Partner of the
Williams F1 Team, after entering into partnership in 2003 and having
subsequently enjoyed a strong relationship. For 2013, the Oris logo will
feature on the cars' front wing and cockpit shoulders. Oris will also
continue its presence on the driver and mechanic overalls, driver gloves
and driver helmets.
Oris has a heritage of over 100 years of watch manufacturing in H?lstein,
Switzerland and is the world's leading manufacturer of mechanical watches.
Its watch designs always incorporate a hallmark red rotor as an integral
element of the design mechanism. The Oris designers work with the latest
technology at the cutting edge of watch making to meet the highest quality
standards while remaining true to the company's characteristic designs.
Ulrich W. Herzog, Executive Chairman of Oris, commented; 'The prestigious
world of Formula One continues to be the perfect platform to promote Oris
and renewing the partnership reinforces our support and commitment to the
Williams F1 Team. We at Oris identify ourselves with the competitive
racing environment and the commitment to quality and success.'
Sir Frank Williams, Team Principal of the Williams F1 Team, added; 'It
gives me great pleasure when one of our existing partners renews their
engagement with the team, especially when it is one of the longest standing
relationships in our sponsorship portfolio. We very much look forward to
continuing our relationship with them in the season ahead and I'd like to
thank them for their continued support.'

About Oris
Oris was founded in 1904. Since the management buy-out in 1982, the
company has been privately owned mainly by the board members and the
management. In 1985, long before the recent mechanical watch hype, Oris
focused on the manufacture of mechanical watches only. Today the strategy
remains the same. Oris makes watches for people who are passionate about
mechanical movements and who look for genuine, contemporary values. The
collection is geared to fulfil consumer needs with the four Oris worlds of
culture, diving, aviation and motorsport: real watches for real people.
