Raymond Weil has named Vikings actress Katheryn Winnick as its new brand ambassador.
Born in Canada, Winnick has guest-starred in numerous television shows, including House M.D., Bones, and Criminal Minds. She has also appeared in several films, such as Love & Other Drugs, and will be seen next in Geostorm.
“We first met Katheryn Winnick on the set of the fourth season of Vikings and immediately became inspired by her strength of character and innate beauty,” said Elie Bernheim, chief executive officer (CEO) of Raymond Weil.
“She perfectly embodies our feminine collections and we are delighted to welcome her as our new brand ambassador.”
Winnick is best known for her leading role as Lagertha on History Channel’s Vikings, now in its fourth season. Her role on the show has garnered her a ‘Best Supporting Actress’ nomination at the 2015 Television Critics Choice Awards and a ‘Best Performance by a Lead Dramatic Actress’ nomination at the 2014 Canadian Screen Awards.
“I am very excited about this partnership, as Raymond Weil shares a similar passion in celebrating the arts, strength, and beauty in women,” Winnick said. “The brand offers elegant timepieces, which reflect style and individual personality. I am an active woman, constantly travelling and on the go. I need a watch that accessorizes and can be worn with many different outfits. Raymond Weil is that brand—beautiful watches for the active, modern woman.”
