The board of luxury watchmaker Audemars Piguet has finally agreed on the timing of the exit of its charismatic CEO, the Frenchman François-Henry Bennahmias. It was announced last week via an interview to the Swiss daily Le Temps. The company did not reply to an email 10 days ago from Miss Tweed asking for clarification about the timing of Bennahmias’ exit. Instead last week, it simply sent Miss Tweed the interview in lieu of a press release.
