Mat Rebeaud’s on top of the world. The young Swiss Freestyle Moto Cross champion and Swatch ProTeam member made a remarkable comeback from injury last year, capping his performance with first and second place performances at the challenging “Night of the Jumps” in Basel. In 2008 he’s back with a bang, in World Championship form with a series of spectacular jumps and stunts that earned him a first-place finish at the Red Bull X-Fighters in Mexico City and second place Rio de Janeiro.

Since joining the Swatch ProTeam in 2005, Mat Rebeaud has helped make the acrobatic performance art of motorcycle jumping a popular sport in his native Switzerland, where he began riding motorcycles when he was only four years old! He’s cheeky, challenging, innovative, tough and trendy - a perfect match for the Swatch philosophy - Mat lends his name to a new “FMX” Swatch Special, a classic, robust Irony THE Chrono that is everything you’d want in a rough and ready sports watch.
