Richemont Results for Year Ending March 31, 2009
Swiss luxury goods group Richemont has announced its audited results for the year ending March 31, 2009. Overall group sales increased 2 percent, however good growth in the first six months was largely offset by lower sales in the second half of the year. For the group as a whole, operating profit declined 12%. Richemont’s specialist watchmakers saw sales increase 4% over the prior year, from €1,378,000,000 to €1,437,000,000. Sales of IWC, Vacheron Constantin and Jaeger-LeCoultre were particularly strong. All of Richemont’s long-held Maisons were profitable. However, the group incurred charges relating to the purchase of Roger Dubuis and the cost of a second SIHH in the same fiscal year. Operating results for the specialist watchmakers were €287 million versus €374 million for the prior year, reflecting a decline of 23%. The new joint venture with Polo Ralph Lauren had no impact on sales.Richemont’s specialist watchmakers include IWC, Vacheron Constantin, Jaeger-LeCou

The high price of a Versace Watch must have made many people

Going to the range on Sunday and I was getting ready and thought this would be a funny shot.

Aqautimer 3536 Titanium
Hi guys,newbie here with a couple of questions:). Like to know what is the feedback on the aquatimer 3536-01. I have been offerred one by a grey dealer and was told that it is a discontinued and sought-after iconic model. Really like the simple and classic single crown look with the stealth apperance of greyish titanium but is a little put off by its price of about USD 3.8k . So when was it discontinued and what are the views on this model as compare to the later offerrings in the Aquatimer line. Appreciate any info on this model. Cheers

Servicing questions
Apologies if this is already covered elsewhere, but as a PP newbie, I am wondering whether forum members actually do have their prized watches serviced as often as recommended, and what percentage have them serviced by PP.I ask this as a Rolex wearer who has been regularly wearing the same watch for close on 40 years, which been serviced once during that time and yet still keeps perfect time !I am considering the purchase of a factory sealed Grand Complication manufactured in 2007, for everyday wear. Will that theoretically need a service before it is worn and (leaving aside maintaining value) does it justify a PP service given that it should be in perfect mechanical condition ?If anyone has a recommendation for a reliable watchmaker in London, who is up to servicing complicated PP watches, a recommendation would also be appreciated (by PM if appropriate ?).
