When it came to making sense of the potential impact of smart watches on the traditional Swiss watch industry, CNN International spoke to Breitling boss Jean-Paul Girardin, LVMH watch president Jean-Claude Biver and WatchPro editor James Buttery.
In a segment filmed on the first day of Baselworld 2015, CNN International’s Nina Dos Santos grilled Buttery on how the newly emerging segment – and the Apple Watch – might affect the traditional watch industry and what the response was likely to be.
Dos Santos later asked Breitling vice president Jean-Paul Girardin and Tag Heuer chief executive officer Jean-Claude Biver, whose companies were both making the Baselworld headlines for connected watches, for their views on the potential impact.
