Every aspect of the APEX 2 Pro Kilian Jornet Edition, from the watch’s colours to the packaging to the broader campaign, is created to represent Kilian and his training environment. The watch features a simple yet bold black and white pallet derived from the snow and igneous rock found around Kilian’s home in Norway.
Included with the APEX 2 Pro Kilian Jornet Edition are the following:
- Unique coloured/designed APEX 2 Pro watch model with matching nylon band.
- Extra silicone watch band to match special edition colour.
- NNormal Run Cap.
- Opportunity to apply for the Kilian Jornet 12-Week Virtual Training Camp.
“COROS and Kilian have worked in unison to build a bigger and better platform for training since the day our partnership originated,” said Lewis Wu, CEO of COROS Wearables. “While the Limited-Edition watch is a physical representation of this partnership, Kilian’s influence can be witnessed by all Users via the recently introduced ‘Effort Pace’ metrics,” Added Wu.
In addition to the introduction of the new watch, COROS has announced that they will be partnering with Kilian Jornet on an exclusive 12-week virtual training camp. Individuals who purchase the APEX 2 Pro Kilian Jornet Edition will have the opportunity to apply for the training camp until February 17, 2023.

Kilian Jornet, on his signature edition APEX 2 Pro, “I spend many hours every day outdoors, training to improve my level, adventuring in the mountains. For this, I need to rely on data to monitor my training stimulus. During the past year working with COROS developers, I’ve learned a lot about this, creating the best tools for me to use when trail running, skimo or out in the mountains. I believe that with this special edition APEX 2 Pro, we can keep pushing how the COROS device can help me – or anyone- improve their training.”
