Further to the significant expansion of the Blancpain brand and consequently the company's increasing requirements for components for movements, together with the need to adapt organization structures and rationalize operational activities, the Executive Group Management Board of Swatch Group recently took the following decisions during its last meeting:Fr��d��ric Piguet SA based in Sentier will be integrated into Blancpain which has its headquarters in Paudex/Le Brassus. This company has been producing movements and components for Blancpain timepieces for many years.With immediate effect this entity will now be officially known as the Manufacture Blancpain. Fr��d��ric Piguet SA is a company of the Swatch Group with a workforce of 481 employees. By virtue of this merger the prestigious watchmaking brand Blancpain will now complete its verticalization as a Manufacture.Furthermore, Valdar SA a company whose headquarters are in L'Orient, will be taken over by Fran?ois Golay SA, which is based in Brassus. Since 1914 Valdar SA has been producing micro-mechanical components which conform to the stringent regulations set by the watchmaking industry; Fran?ois Golay SA is also a company specializing in the manufacture of components of exceptionally high quality for supply to luxury watchmaking companies. The integration of Valdar SA into Fran?ois Golay SA will ensure the centralization of the production, assembly and high-end finishing processes into one legal production unit in the Vall��e de Joux.All employees at Fr��d��ric Piguet SA and Valdar SA will be maintained and taken over by Blancpain and Fran?ois Golay, both of which are companies of the Swatch Group; thus guaranteeing optimal synergies for development, including the concentration of major assets for capital investment and expenditure required for continued growth and progression.

New from Swatch is a collection of watches for men with contemporary good looks, a modern feeling size, and available in a host of colors. This is the “New Gent” Rebel collection, and does actually look quite good. I fancied these designs from the first time I saw them, and really appreciate the more modern 41mm wide size of the case. The watches are in plastic with silicon straps and feature day/date Swiss quartz movements. The New Gent Rebel watches currently come in 10 color choices. The winner of this giveaway can choose the color they like (subject to availability by Swatch).
