Sébastien ChaulmontetGUEST
So you have two diets, so to speak.
Sébastien ChaulmontetGUEST
And it's a prototype from Jaeger-LeCoultre, which is obviously one of the greatest movement manufacturers of all times.
Sébastien ChaulmontetGUEST
And in addition to having this weird shape, weird indication, it has a backwind.
Sébastien ChaulmontetGUEST
So when you sum up the fact that it's rectangular, that the chronograph indication is fully detached from hour and minute, and that you have a backwind makes this thing crazy... impossible somehow.
MartinHOST
Number two, I forgot what number two was.
MartinHOST
Oh, remember we talked about this with JLC, with their 1,000-hour control.
MartinHOST
Yes.
MartinHOST
When we say, yes, it was gone for four months— Remember, one, I don't know, two weeks of that.
DarrenHOST
What diameter is it?
GHOST
Like the JLC steel perpetual at 40 grand is very good, but this is how the grown-ups do
MattHOST
it, isn't it? 41.5 millimetres, Darren.
MattHOST
Nice.
8 MINS LATER
DarrenHOST
It does, yeah.
DarrenHOST
It's going to cause a fiasco.
MattHOST
I suppose that reveal of the time or of the dial is very much like JLC Reverso.
MattHOST
It's very much like some of the jewellery pieces that Bulgari do where the dial is hidden in the jewellery.
Yan DreddyGUEST
But now you have some emerging... artisans coming out of china doing incredible stuff like for the gishing for tell your when you got barons which by the way barons you know this because we're both in geneva The first Chinese watch brand to exhibit at Pell Expo next to juggernauts of Swiss industry.
Yan DreddyGUEST
That's already a little milestone in itself to have a Chinese brand exhibiting right there next to JLC.
Yan DreddyGUEST
That's huge.
Yan DreddyGUEST
And then you got a watch brand like Minerochi.
JoeHOST
CPO, right? Certified pre-owned or whatever you want to call it.
JoeHOST
And JLC is doing that.
JoeHOST
Vacheron is doing that.
JoeHOST
Rolex is doing that.
10 MINS LATER
JoeHOST
You've got Patek Philippe, but only certain Pateks.
JoeHOST
You've got Vacheron, but only certain Vacheron.
JoeHOST
You've got Brege, but only certain JLC, but only certain, you know, it's not, it's not just like, okay, whatever's on the dial is going to be great.
JoeHOST
It's like, yeah, it doesn't work out that way.
James StaceyHOST
And at the time they used ETA movements, 6497s and things like that.
James StaceyHOST
And then the brand went in-house, you know, with a connection to the rest of Richemont and with JLC and the rest of this.
James StaceyHOST
And so we started to see the P series movements, which of course we still see in this.
James StaceyHOST
It's a three digit, but you go back to the P2000s and the P9000s and things like that.
RichGUEST
Take your pick.
RichGUEST
JLC.
JordanHOST
Christopher Ward.
JordanHOST
Right.
49 MINS LATER
RichGUEST
Like, watching those guys, like, you look at that and it's like, wow.
JordanHOST
Just level anything, right?
RichGUEST
Yeah, but I'll take that back to the watch world, like the people making our dials, Shapiro doing his stuff, the guys at Choppack or some of the stuff at JLC, like those watchmakers, the stuff that they're doing, that is just... like elite level stuff that is on par with that.
RichGUEST
You know, it's just in the art world.
Noah WilliamsHOST
But let's say this.
Noah WilliamsHOST
Let's say you are JLC and you have an in-house movement.
Noah WilliamsHOST
you're still working with suppliers to bring in parts on various levels.
Noah WilliamsHOST
And again, you understand this part better than I do because you've worked directly designing watches.
19 MINS LATER
Michael BerriosHOST
One super quick story on serviceability of some of these timepieces.
Michael BerriosHOST
I had...
Michael BerriosHOST
It was such a privilege to get to go do this, but to go to JLC a few years back, and what an incredible experience at Gégé-les-Coutreux, such a fantastic house.
Michael BerriosHOST
And through this tour of their manufacturer, they take you upstairs to this room of about 10 folks.
RioGUEST
You have your GMT.
RioGUEST
You might have your dress watch, you know, you might have a nice ultra thin JLC or a Calatrava.
RioGUEST
So you have the run of the gamut for any other situations that you have.
RioGUEST
This is the one you put on.
Paul SheeranGUEST
We're the official retail partner, would it be fair to say, Carol? And our company is probably one of the first companies in Ireland to really grow what I'd call boutique experiential retailing in the watchmaking world.
Paul SheeranGUEST
We have brands from IWC, Panerai, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Cartier Espace.
Paul SheeranGUEST
Of course, Breitling, Tag Heuer, Tudor, Hublot, and now Galley joining our latest edition to join the house.
Paul SheeranGUEST
Again, we've other brands joining in the next year or two.
Paul SheeranGUEST
The rest of them are Irish people, and they're flying to England, Paris, New York, everywhere, and they're getting beautiful retail experiences.
Paul SheeranGUEST
So we in Ireland were very much a multi-brand location in shops.
Paul SheeranGUEST
Let's take Jaeger-LeCoultre.
Paul SheeranGUEST
We might have only been allowed to sell 33 watches, where now we have a boutique with approximately 100.
