Tag Heuer CEO: Suffering From International Problems
Hublot will probably be the next LVMH watch brand to add smart functions, following TAG Heuer’s footsteps in combining Swiss craftsmanship and connected technology, according to LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE’s watch chief.
Hublot may add intelligent functions to watches in 2017 or 2018, and Zenith could also consider doing so sometime, Jean-Claude Biver said in an interview at the Baselworld watch fair. Some of the functions could be sports-related, similar to its sister brand TAG Heuer, he added.
