A New Watch Conglomerate on the Horizon?
Breitling CEO, Georges Kern, hints at the possibility of acquiring other brands to help revive their prospects in the same way he has done with Breitling.
No stranger to watch conglomerates, Georges Kern came over to head Breitling from The Richemont Group in 2017, where he successfully helped to integrate A. Lange & Söhne, Jaeger-LeCoultre, and IWC under the Richemont umbrella following their acquisitions. Breitling has been majority owned by CVC Capital since 2017.
