Jean Claude Biver to head up Zenith and Tag Heuer

[xdonolix]

LVMH announced that Jean Claude Biver will add responsibility for Zenith and Tag Heuer to his existing role at Hublot. It will be interesting to see what he does. He certainly made a few changes when he took over Blancpain and Hublot. Should be good news.

Zenith has some wonderful movements but their design could do with some new ideas.

Zenith has some wonderful movements but their design could do with some new ideas.

They tried that, but ended up producing a load of unloved, short-lived, new-economy crap. However, they are veering back towards producing oversized watches with obviously too-small, undersized movements which should keep the New Economies happy! I'd rather they spent the money figuring out how to make the el Primero hack. I've always thought it a bit silly that a movement which touts the accuracy you get from 36000vph can't be set to the nearest second.
