LIP AMBASSADOR:
oscar lombardot
FRENCH NATIONAL BIATHLON TEAM ATHLETE
French biathlete Oscar Lombardot, a native of the Doubs region, joins LIP as an ambassador, proudly representing the Besançon-based watchmaking Maison.
A partnership bringing together two figures deeply rooted in their home region, united by a shared appreciation of time, precision and performance. Time is everywhere in biathlon. In the physical effort, in race management, in shooting accuracy and, ultimately, at the finish line. For Oscar Lombardot, every second counts.
OSCAR LOMBARDOT
Born on April 23, 2000, in Pontarlier, Oscar Lombardot grew up in the Haut-Doubs region and represents the Entente Sportive Saugette sports club.
Having steadily progressed through the ranks of international biathlon, from junior competitions to the World Cup circuit, he now joins LIP as a brand ambassador.
This partnership is a natural continuation of LIP's history and the Maison's enduring connection to its home region.
A CAREER BUILT ON PRECISION
A two-time Junior World Champion in the relay in 2021 and 2022, Oscar Lombardot has continued to develop within the French national team, progressively establishing himself on the international circuit.
On the World Cup circuit, he has distinguished himself in both individual and relay events. During the 2025–2026 season, he notably achieved three top-10 finishes in individual World Cup races and contributed to France's relay victories in Nové Město and Ruhpolding. He finished the season 17th in the overall World Cup standings.
Behind these achievements lies the constant discipline required by biathlon. Athletes must manage their physical effort on skis, regain their composure at the shooting range and maintain their accuracy despite the intensity of competition. A matter of seconds can make all the difference.
These exacting demands naturally resonate with LIP's watchmaking heritage, where precision and mastery of time lie at the heart of its expertise.
""I am delighted to join LIP. In biathlon, time is everywhere: in the physical effort, in precision, in race management and, of course, at the finish line. Partnering with a French brand with such a rich history and genuine watchmaking expertise means a great deal to me. I look forward to bringing this partnership to life throughout the season."
WHEN TWO WORLDS COME TOGETHER
Beyond his career as an elite athlete, LIP is also supporting a young man who is pursuing engineering studies alongside his sporting ambitions. This dual commitment reflects the same determination to move forward, continuously improve and build for the future.
Away from the skis and shooting range, Oscar remains deeply connected to nature. He enjoys returning to the Haut-Doubs region to explore its landscapes, particularly through hiking and cycling, and also enjoys fishing.
Through this partnership, LIP aims to support Oscar Lombardot in achieving his sporting goals and to share new memorable moments with him, both on and off the slopes.
The Maison wishes him a season filled with success, both professionally and personally.
