Mr Eric Othenin-Girard, watch industry journalist and expert, presents us the idea behind his new association Watches & Friends. His first guest was Mr Max Busser of MB&F. Andrian Bosshard, CEO of Certina, demonstrates the 8 functions of the new DS Multi-8. Discover Louis Nardin’s (editor-in-chief of Worltempus) Top 5 during the 21st edition of the SIHH. Behind the scenes of a record sale by Christie’s at the Geneva auction on May 10th 2010: 6.4 Million Swiss francs for a 1943 Patek Philippe chronograph. Find out more about the incredible George Daniels auction just held in London with Roger Smith, pupil and independent watchmaker who talks to us about the man and his watches with a exceptional presentation of the Space Traveller, one of the most iconic pieces of the auction. For the current floral themed exhibition of Vacheron Constantin’s private collection in Geneva, TheWATCHES.tv has interviewed Jérôme Meier, expert watchmaker at Vacheron Constantin. He gives us further insight into the 50 timepieces ranging from 1780 through the 1930′s displayed until December 2012. With a new world record for a Rolex Sea-Dweller reaching almost 0.5 million Swiss Francs and total sales of the 600 lots proposed slightly above CHF 8,6 Million, find out more about the auction that took place on the 11th of November 2012 with Julien Schaerer, Watch Director and auctioneer of Antiquorum. We also talk about the result of a contemporary Audemars Piguet, the Jules Audemars, and why are Swatch watches not performing, even for prototype versions! Guillaume Tetu, founder of Hautlence, explains us the takeover of the company by an experienced team led by Georges-Henri Meylan (former Audemars Piguet CEO), a move that should solidify the brand both in terms of product development and its distribution. The first visible step, the launch of new repositioned timepiece, the HLRS, a watch which comes in 3 finishing and to be found around the $30’000 mark.
