JeanRichard is set to make its mark in the gentleman’s game of rugby as official watch of the famous Paris rugby club Racing Metro 92.

Founded in 1882, the club from Hauts-de-Seine was one of the pioneers of rugby in France and has been one of the major players in French rugby for over 130 years. It has also provided many players, including some leading figures, to France’s national rugby team. Five times national champion, it has now decided to infuse new life into the legendary club and has brought about a remarkable turnaround in just a few seasons.

“A rich past, a promising future, a beautiful Philosophy of Life: JeanRichard and Racing Metro 92 have much in common,” enthuses Bruno Grande, COO of the Swiss firm. “Our brand, in the throes of a revival, and this legendary club, now back at the top, share the same values – such as the taste for challenge, team spirit and the desire to live life to the fullest, making the most of every moment. Racingmen are just like the JeanRichard men: everyday heroes who do extraordinary things. Lovers of explorations and discoveries, ready to conquer the world.”
