We met a long time ago&#8230; wow!<br \/>\nWe were young. He was already a bit older&#8230; but we must have been about 25 years old. In fact, I was first a friend of your aunt Florence. Then we worked together for a while and now I&#8217;m the boss of a brand called De Bethune.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who are you in the office?<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nI&#8217;m the CEO (which means Chief Executive Officer). Basically, it&#8217; s the one who doesn&#8217;t do much! He&#8217;s like the orchestra conductor. He tries to get his team to play the right music. In fact, he arrives at the office late, he leaves before everyone else&#8230; even if he pretends to work very very late, which is not always true.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And in real life?<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nIn real life, I&#8217;m a lot funnier than at work, that&#8217;s for sure. I make my wife laugh, especially at the beginning. Now I make my children laugh a lot and also my friends because I always tell a couple of dumb jokes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How did you get into the watch industry?<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nBy chance, in fact. I came in through the back door. By the very small door! I started by selling advertising and editing magazines. Then I worked with and managed the Geneva Watchmaking Grand Prix for two years, I worked with your father for a little while in the same company, then I managed a very famous multi-brand boutique called Les Ambassadeurs. And finally, I came here to manage the most beautiful brand of fine watchmaking called De Bethune. You could say it&#8217;s the biggest of the small brands or the smallest of the big brands.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Remembering your first watch?<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nI must have been your age. Probably even younger than you and I remember it was a watch called Kelton. It was a quartz Kelton. At that time, it was trendy to own quartz watches. It was brand new.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_small\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"w-image align_none meta_simple\"><div class=\"w-image-h\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"598\" height=\"413\" src=\"https:\/\/swiss-watch-passport.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/JSH-Swiss-Watch-Passport-Kelton-Histoire.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/swiss-watch-passport.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/JSH-Swiss-Watch-Passport-Kelton-Histoire.jpg 598w, https:\/\/swiss-watch-passport.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/JSH-Swiss-Watch-Passport-Kelton-Histoire-300x207.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 598px) 100vw, 598px\" \/><\/div><div class=\"w-image-meta\"><div class=\"w-image-title\">La premi\u00e8re montre de Pierre Jacques, une Kelton \u00e0 quartz.

Actually, it&#8217;s pretty much every De Bethune because when you put your heart into developing a brand, it&#8217;s a bit like feeding your children, you love them all the same. So I love all our timepieces in the same way.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you manufacture watches for young people?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Well&#8230; of course! In fact, we don&#8217;t make them for young or old people, we make them for everyone. Because for me a watch is neither for a woman nor for a man&#8230; Our watches are unisex and intergenerational. You see, it&#8217;s a bit like you wearing a Swatch watch that fits you very well. You&#8217;re very young, but it would look just as good on daddy, who&#8217;s a little less young. There are no watches for young and old. You just have to have good taste and like what you wear, according to your personal taste.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What would you say to a young person under the age of 15 to get him or her interested in mechanical watchmaking rather than an Apple Watch?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I would like to tell him that at his age, for example, he can already ride a bike but not yet a motorbike or even an electric bike. And the bike is something completely mechanical. Mechanics are nice, they&#8217;re more fun. So first you should be interested in mechanics and then you can get interested in electronics later. At your age, you don&#8217;t need to know how many beats your heart makes every minute. But hearing the ticking of a nice mechanical watch is much nicer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And what are the assets of your brand to seduce him\/her?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Because our brand is like no other. It is different. In terms of design, a De Bethune looks like a De Bethune. We don&#8217;t try to make a dial to please. We make a dial that we like first, based on our own emotions&#8230; and then we hope to share that with our collectors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>There is a lot of discussion about sustainability, what does that mean to you?<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nIt&#8217;s a great debate&#8230; For us, it means doing things as well as possible while respecting the environment we&#8217;re going to leave to the next generation, without making too many quantities either. De Bethune&#8217;s philosophy can be summed up by saying that &#8216;less is more&#8217;. Favouring quality over quantity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are you more TikTok, Instagram or LinkedIn?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not LinkedIn. TikTok is rather for you&#8230; I would say I&#8217;m from the Instagram generation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_small\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"w-image align_none meta_simple\"><div class=\"w-image-h\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1830\" height=\"784\" src=\"https:\/\/swiss-watch-passport.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/JSH-Swiss-Watch-Passport-Pierre-Jacques-Instagram.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/swiss-watch-passport.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/JSH-Swiss-Watch-Passport-Pierre-Jacques-Instagram.png 1830w, https:\/\/swiss-watch-passport.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/JSH-Swiss-Watch-Passport-Pierre-Jacques-Instagram-300x129.png 300w, https:\/\/swiss-watch-passport.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/JSH-Swiss-Watch-Passport-Pierre-Jacques-Instagram-600x257.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1830px) 100vw, 1830px\" \/><\/div><div class=\"w-image-meta\"><div class=\"w-image-title\">Profil instagram de Pierre Jacques<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_small\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p><strong>What tips would you give me to be able to pursue my passion and work in watchmaking?<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nWell, it&#8217;s just to keep doing what you&#8217;re doing.

Born in 2010, Amandine is creating a worldwide buzz on the watchmaking web following her video for the Phillips auction house and her appearance on the Australian channel Time &amp; Tide.

Newcomer to the Swiss Watch Passport newsroom, the youngest columnist of the team is now publishing her \"WhoAreU\" interviews while livening up her Instagram page where she reviews her watchmaking experiences with a refreshing maturity.
