I read on Monochrome that AP will donate 100%
Of the money coming from those sales to a good horlogical cause. So they dont do it just to earn a quick buck, which I find nobel....they get to play philantropic in all this!😄
AP & Swatch, taking the watch out of the discussion...
One of the things I like to do when I can't figure things out is throw out everything and start over. What do we know? We have some "givens": - APs new CEO is not a watch industry insider - Swatch is a conglomerate that knows how to make money I'll tack o...
