The WatchTime Q&A: Jean-Claude Biver on the TAG Heuer Connected Watch
The biggest news in the watch world this week was the launch of the TAG Heuer Connected, a “smartwatch” developed by the Swiss brand in partnership with Google and Intel. (Click here for our detailed report on the watch). After the launch, I had the opportunity to speak with the man behind the ambitious project, TAG Heuer CEO and President of LVMH Watch Division Jean-Claude Biver.WT: You oversee a small group of brands at LVMH �� Zenith and Hublot as well as TAG Heuer �� so what made you decide that TAG Heuer was the right brand for a connected watch?JCB: It was the price structure. The average price of a Hublot is $22,500, The entry-level price for a Hublot is $5,000. Can Hublot produce a connected watch at $1,500 when the entry price is $5,000? I doubt it. Can Hublot produce a smartwatch when it does just 30,000 watches per year? How could it make a smartwatch with such low quantities?

Thoughts on white Ceramic Diver
I just wanted to know your thoughts on a white ceramic diver and would you buy it if you had the chance of getting it over a black or steel diver. These are the pics i got yesterday and a size comparison between my 5164.

way too good to be true
I believe retail on this one is $40k,yet they're giving it away... .thefancy/things/21256...re-Chronograph

Did this happen to you?
I was starring at my watch collection one day that included patek, AP, breguet and rolex and realized that patek is by far the most amazing watch and brand. I then decided to sell and trade all of my collection for pateks. That was two years ago for me. I know realize that it is the only brand I am interested in. The more I learn about the brand and history the more impressed I am. I realize now that I am no longer a watch enthusiast but a patek enthusiast. Every now and then I am tempted by another brand, but I realize I am just wasting my time because as soon as I buy anything else I will end up trading it for a patek. I don't even buy watch magazines anymore or visit non-patek watch stores.I now understand this statement for myself There are only two types of watches, patek and everything elseHas this happened to anyone else?
