About this episode
Today, Rob and Alon welcome the legendary force of nature that is Jean-Claude Biver to the show. An industry icon, Biver played a pivotal role in the renaissance of the Swiss watch industry following the tumult of the Quartz Crisis of the 1970s. He reinvigorated Blancpain, tripled the profitability of Omega (and managed to strap one onto James Bond's wrist for the first time, made Hublot a household name, and spearheaded TAG Heuer's increasing global visibility, molding it into the powerhouse brand it is today.
If you've never heard Biver speak before, you're in for a treat...
