We have just recieved this press release with some very sad news.

An architect former motor racing driver and visionary entrepreneur he had been behind the wheel of Girard-Perregaux since 1992. A firm believer in the value of an authentic Haute Horlogerie Manufacture he pioneered the development of an integrated production strategy.  A charismatic leader he was able to make SOWIND GROUP an essential player in Swiss Haute Horlogerie.
