Very good questions asked and very good responses given.
All I can say is that I am very pleased to see the exchange. Having read what Mr. Lambert has shared over the years, I feel assured the ship is being steered in the best direction possible.
I hope to one day visit the Manufacture ... soon

PuristSPro interviews Mr. Jerome Lambert, CEO of Jaeger-LeCoultre
Mr. Jerome Lambert attended a recent South Coast Plaza Jaeger-LeCoultre Boutique event where I sat down with him for 45 minutes and asked him questions compiled by the entire PuristSPro team. I hope you enjoy this interview as much as I enjoyed conducting...
Great interview...
Its the first time that I read a whole interview,and its due to the well asked question...congratulations... I like Mr Lambert answers and ethic,especially regarding limited editions..... Very nice read. Cheers Mo
Our entire mod team takes credit for the questions
When I conduct interviews, I always try to ask questions which I feel isn't commonly asked or rarely/never asked, especially if they are tough or "hot" quesitons :) That's what makes interviews interesting. And plus, Mr. Lambert probably is tired of being...
Thnx for this good and thorough interview.
Always liked the JLC-philosophy and this interview witm mr Lambert confirmed it again. Thnx a lot.
Clever interview
Thanks for bringing us these thoughts. We are used to reading some pre-formated interviews but this one brings answers we don't see around. Great work Anthony. Cheers, Mark
As you can guess, the interview was made at the end of last year.
I also have to say that this is a great interview, with good questions, and it is a pleasure to see that Jerome Lambert played the game in such a great way. Thanks, Anthony and Jerome, for the good moment I had to read it! Best, Nicolas.
Philippe Bonay was there during interview too
so if I had know that, I would have prepared a duo interview. Now that would have been very interesting! Jerome was great. I asked him some other questions which are too "hot" to publish, but he answered them with anyways and joined in the fun (as well as...
A very intersting interview
Very well condicted. mr Lambert is one of the few CEOs I actually find interesting when talking about watches. He is more than a business man, I sense. Best Christian
I think JLc is in VERY good hands with Mr Lambert...
who seems to have a very thorough vision based on intense observation on even seemingly tiny aspects of his trade. the outcome is an approach that may forgo short term profits in favour of long term rewards (see: limited editions, e-commerce, customer com...
Thanks for the insightful interview....
.... And touching on the touchy issues such as the use of painted blue hands on certain models vs the generally-preferred blued steel. I am in agreement with Mr Lambert's stand concerning the diminishing appeal of boutique exclusives if it's done too ofte...
Wow. What an interview. I LOVE his answer regarding...
Ranking ... That JLC is a reference manufacture so it doesnn't mean anything to be number 1 or 3. That JLC stands alone. Wow. This interview ranks way up there with the Zanetta interview for 2013. Man, what a great start. Thank you Anthony, Nico, and the ...
Great article. One of my concerns...
(and I don't know if you had the question ready to ask or not) is what JLC doing to combat the deep discounting of retailers and the VERY strong presence of gray market retailers? Both of these are bad for a brand's integrity and resale. Rolex and PP both...
That is one of the reasons they opt for the Boutique Solution.
No discount, no grey market, no price drops... For us, nor for the re sellers... Best, Nicolas
Thank you for a interesting read
Mr L. definetly a man I would like to meet and sit down and have a conversation with! :) I guess we would have at least one or two interests incommon... Best Blomman
Some hard tough questions there, and good solid answers...
A real interview with really pertinent questions that nobody wants to ask and most CEOs wouldn't want to be asked. And I'm glad that I feel good with the answers! Thank you Anthony.
Nice reading you Mr. Lambert!
and good work AT! and I have to second that thought from above about movie tie-ins. I hope with the new boutiques, JLC gets more love there in the US versus the rest of the world.
His answer about the blue hands....
....was BS, basically....' some treatments or color preferences cannot be accomplished by heating the hands '......errr yes you can if you want blue hands, which is what we asked for. Change the subject about shaped moons if you like but all of that skill...
Very good questions asked and very good responses given.

Thanks for a very enlightening
interview with Mr. Lambert. It is clear to see where JLC is going in the coming years. The development in the past ten years is both increase in scope and depth and I can attribute this in no small way to Mr. Lambert strong leadership. /W72
" I have been in Australia meeting PuristS that are posting regularly on the website..."
Thank you Jerome for remembering me, after all you were entranced by my platinum blue MUT. :) But seriously, thanks to all for a great interview. In hopeful anticipation, I have started my Geophysic tribute savings account already. Regards, Richard.
Thank you!
Enlightening article. And the future model hint was great to see. Thank you. I met the USA president a couple months ago. Emailed him afterwards (he'd given me his card). He replied quickly and was very thoughtful. A nice way to show they're interested in...
