This interview is a superb teasing! Still one week to wait, to see what GP has under his sleeve. Curiously I thught their annual production was a bit above 11 / 12 000 watches. Very interesting read, Andrew. Well done. And, of course, thanks to Stephano M... 

Nice interview Andrew....and Nicolas.....

Mr. Stefano seems to be very passionate about the brand and GP is on good hands. The Hawk was and is a great watch. I'm wishing only for a 42mm model. Cheers, Nilo

The Kering (PPR) relationship ...

 
 By: AndrewD : April 18th, 2013-13:57
It has been nearly 2 years since Kering obtained majority (51%) ownership of GP and JR. Of course many of us were nervous about a (Macaluso) family owned company under a larger conglomerate of luxury goods. But at every opportunity I have asked employees,... 

Thanks very much Andrew :)

Many thanks Andrew for this interview, very "revealing"....

indeed. I personally find very interesting the reflection of, trying to make bigger mouvements while, in the "not so far past" the emphasis and the prestige was to make, as Mr Macaluso says, smaller and smaller mouvement. As you know, I am a fervent advoc... 

Congratulations Andrew! I read this morning in the SMH .....

I like the GP Hawk chrono, and it was interesting to learn that Mr. Macaluso mentioned that the Hawk design was partly inspired by the Millenium Falcon. Very cool. Looking forward to seeing what GP offers at Baselworld. Regards, ED-209
