Dubai Watch Week: Horology Forum; Philippe Dufour and The Next Generation
patrick_y
Philippe Dufour, the established watchmaker needs no introduction. But Monsieur Dufour's daughter, Daniela Dufour, is the next generation and the future face of her father's legacy. Daniela Dufour has completed making her first watch, but is she ready to take on clients and run the business? Will the Dufour legacy survive? Watch this video and it seems that the Dufour legacy is in good hands - and time will tell if the brand will survive.
This is a big one and the room was packed. Definitely watch this one!

Please feel free to post it in a new thread! All posts about Dubai Watch Week are appropriate! I was going to put on the Max Busser story after I was able to watch it again - can you believe it? I got into that one late! I normally say I'm a huge fan - but how can a fan of Max be late to one of his ...
