Like many of our followers, we find ourselves in an unprecedented situation which also changes the way in which we interact with digital media. While our teams are working remotely both here and abroad, we are thrilled to kick off an Instagram Live series. Every day, we will provide our audience with engaging conversations with today’s most notable personalities in the industry.
Introducing HOMEtime
Watchonista is privileged to have relationships with some of the most influential executives and personalities within the watch industry. Starting Monday, March 30th at 12:00pm EST (18:00 CET), we’ll bring our followers together for our #HOMEtime IG Live series. Join us as we discuss brand’s responses to COVID-19 and get a behind the scenes look at some of the most notable people within our industry.
Tuning in is just as easy as following @Watchonista on Instagram.
How to participate
We’re inviting our readers to submit your questions to our guests via Instagram or by emailing contact@watchonista.com. We’ll open up questions on Instagram one day prior to each session.
We look forward to having you join us! See you soon on Instagram!
First Guests
Next week (starting March 30th) we’ll kick off our HOMEtime series with our first guest, Bulgari’s CEO Jean-Christophe Babin. Hear from the head of the famed Italian jeweler and watchmaker on how the brand is doing their part to combat the current global crisis.
On Tuesday, March 31st, we’ll return to New York City, where we’ll sit down with Rudy Albers, President of WEMPE. Where we’ll get an inside look at the iconic retailer’s watch collection and some insights as to the current state of watch retail.
Wednesday, April 1st, will be very special as we’ll have Breitling CEO Georges Kern joining us. Viewers can expect an engaging discussion with the very charismatic CEO.
Later in the week, we'll have famed tattoo artist Mo Coppoletta joining us, along with master watchmaker Rexhep Rexhepi (of Akrivia). We have further guests lined up for the upcoming weeks, but we’re not letting all of our secrets out just yet! You’ll have to visit our Instagram page ( @watchonista ) every Sunday where we’ll announce the full schedule of HOMEtime guests.
So be on the lookout and get your questions ready!
