Richemont, the Swiss luxury goods group, announces the retirement of Mr Henry-John Belmont, Director of Haute Horlogerie. Mr Belmont has accordingly resigned from his position as a director of Richemont SA, the Group’s management board. He will continue to act as a consultant to the Group on watch movement development.

Mr Norbert Platt, Richemont Chief Executive Officer, said:

“Since joining Richemont in 2000, Henry-John has made an important contribution to the success of our watchmaking operations. He has played a critical role first as CEO of Jaeger-LeCoultre, thereafter taking charge of the integration of Jaeger-LeCoultre, IWC and A. Lange & Söhne into the Group and, latterly, leading the development of our watch movement strategy. I thank Henry-John for the knowledge and expertise that he has brought to the Group and wish him a very long and happy retirement.”
