USA Swimming today announced the renewal of its partnership with OMEGA, which will continue serving as the Official Timekeeper of USA Swimming through 2029.

OMEGA has been the exclusive timing partner of USA Swimming since 2007, marking 18 years of collaboration that has captured every touch, turn, and record-breaking moment in the pool. OMEGA’s support remains critical to the sport of swimming that relies on accurate timing.

As part of the renewed agreement, OMEGA will continue supporting USA Swimming’s championship-level events, including the 2026 Pan-Pacific Championships in Irvine, Calif. The brand will also serve as the presenting sponsor of the Female Athlete, Male Athlete, and Coach of the Year awards at the Golden Goggle Awards.

“OMEGA’s precision and excellence have been synonymous with competitive swimming for decades,” said Kevin Ring, USA Swimming President and CEO. “Their continued support allows us to deliver world-class competition experiences for athletes, coaches, and fans alike.”

The partnership underscores OMEGA’s commitment to innovation, precision, and capturing every moment that defines the sport.

“Extending this partnership reflects the strong trust and friendship that OMEGA and USA Swimming has built over the years. As a brand, we’re thrilled to grow our legacy of aquatic timekeeping alongside such a committed partner, and especially to serve and honour the athletes whose careers are defined by split-seconds,” said Raynald Aeschlimann, President and CEO of OMEGA.
