That's a good question
And I don't have a answer answer yet to write out.
But I shared this one point with MMA that I will share here as well.
He was in town for a GP event organized by THG the Authorized dealer.
The majority of the GP collectors in Singapore that I knew were not invited. I too wws not invited.
I said to MMA, the fastest way to disintermediate with a fan is to come to the country, throw a party (AD party), do NOT invite many existing collectors and then post what a great party it was on social media.
This is not being collector centric.
This is leaving it all to the AD that is only interested in sales and new prospects.
This seemed to hit home ... MMA will need to engage with current collectors/owners of GP.
Your thoughts?

Dinner with Marc Michel-Amadry (MMA), the Managing Director (MD) of Girard-Perregaux
Friends, Marc Michel-Amadry (MMA), the Managing Director (MD) of Girard-Perregaux came over to our house in Singapore for dinner last night. It was a pleasure to meet him with my family in a casual environment. My mother prepared local delights which we w...
What a treat
For all parties involved. Your mother sounds like she has some serious skills on the kitchen. I watch brand that takes seriously its consumer base - that’s foundational!
Thank you
Yes, good food and nice conversation about watches. Priceless. The GP minute repeater that MMA brought alone is CHF 530,000 ... So we all were careful around it. 😅
Wow, what an amazing and kind gesture from MMA.
Your dedication and loyalty to the brand is not going unnoticed in higher places Marc. Wonderful post from a wonderful evening. Enjoy!
It was fun. I don't like wearing jackets and such anymore
So dinner at my house was a lot more fun for everyone.
Wow, that sounds superinteresting!
Tell me please, Marc, what exactly do you mean saying that collectors would be the primary focus for GP? Any practical ideas? Thanks in advance.

We pretty much talked as two collectors
that love GP. I'm a pretty casual guy and I like a non pretentious environment. MMA is also pretty chill so it was good chemistry. My mother, wife and sister would go in to do somethings and come back out to the patio and say...You guys still talking abou...
It was enjoyable
I shared what I think and MMA listened. There are some gaps that will need to be filled. Getting into the "collector mindset$ is going to be key to it all.
Yes, all very impressive
MMA was also very interested to see my Neo vintage GP collection. I think we were both mutually impresses with what we both brought to the table. (Literally) ☺
It has been a wonderful moment, apparently!
I couldn’t be more happy for you, Marc. Best, Emmanuel
