Bruno Meier took over as Rolex’s CEO in 2008; before that he was the company’s chief financial officer. In Rolex also announced that Daniel Neidhart is now in charge of the foreign branches of the company. Neidhart will fill this newly created position from an office in Hong Kong. Neidhart was previously in charge of Rolex’s Chinese distribution.

If that's a rolex official press pic it's poor PR; you can't see him wearing a rolex or any watch.

Maybe he's wearing an omega and hiding

Based in Hong Kong ? That's awful close to the Mecca of his dreaded REP nemesis. Any thoughts on him being based in HK ?

I know this guy. Last month, he bought my old UPO. After the movement died on him, he filed a Paypal dispute and got my account suspended. Not cool, Gian Riccardo. Don't expect me to buy anything from your stupid company.

Low tax, close to expanding Asian markets etc. I wouldn't read anything rep related into it.

China is one of the largest consumers of luxury goods now in comparison to the western world.

On the subject of China being the biggest consumer of luxury goods, here is a video of a Chinese business man paying for his Lamborghini to get smashed up as he was appalled at the customer service and things going wrong with it.

Sorry to crap on your thread col, but the damn asains have the cooooolest hardhats!

Seriously, on every construction thing I watch on discovery they all wear similar hardhats. Nothing like that here. Does anyone know about these? There propbly like 10 times safer than the junk we wear over here.
