Gustavo is the Managing Director of Parmigiani Fleurier Americas. He joins us for this episode to discuss the incredible initiatives out into action by Parmigiani Fleurier here in the USA to specifically encourage and reward those who financially support our front line heroes who are battling daily to save lives of those infected by Covid-19. Additionally, we discuss how Parmigiani Fleurier is supporting their retailers and even individual salespeople as we all navigate through these troubled times. The conversation naturally gravitates towards discussing the sometimes under-appreciated value and expertise of the immense Manufacturing capabilities of Parmigiani Fleurier. Naturally, we also discuss the man himself, Michel Parmigiani. We hope that you enjoy this episode and perhaps even learn a thing or two about haute horlogerie and this special brand.

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.
