Welcome to our first "quarantine" episode. From our respective isolation locations we have a very special episode with one of the most charismatic leaders in the luxury watch industry, François Bennahmias. The CEO of Audemars Piguet rose to prominence when he took over the reigns of the newly established Audemars Piguet-owned distribution for North America in New York in the late 1990's. Francois set to work to transform the image and the fortunes of the famous family-owned Manufacture from Le Brassus, Switzerland. Today, Francois is the global CEO of the power-house brand famous for iconic watches such as the Royal Oak. Join us as we discuss the implications of today's Covid-19 crisis and look for perspective and calm, insightful thought from the leader of a global company with 145 years of experience navigating a myriad of crises. We look for the positives, the hopes and reflect on the lessons we are all learning at this historically significant moment in time. If you enjoy Keeping Time Podcast please let others know.
