Thanks for sharing this electrosound. I love how short, eloquent and to the point his answers are. It also made me read more on ETA, the Swatch Group and all the controversy about ETA in terms of movement production and availability as well as the monopoly investigation launched against them in 2005. Good to see that Breitling started thinking about creating their own movements and therefore becoming less dependent on ETA from 2004.

Thanks for posting that electrosound because in spite of being a subscriber to L'Agefi, I missed it. :oops:

It is interesting to see that despite of (still) considering Europe and the US as their primary markets, they now target the BRIC countries and Japan as future potential growth markets. No wonder with what we've seen after Baselworld 2011.

Clearly, they also have no clue as to how the markets will react to their new models as he said that they await the markets's response for that.
