DEAR FELLOW WATCH CONNOISSEURS<br />

Welcome to Issue No. 1 of Letters From Le Brassus!<br />

We at <strong>Blancpain</strong> are pleased to introduce you to our new magazine. It is our hope that<br />

Letters From Le Brassus will let you experience the<br />

spirit of <strong>Blancpain</strong> by not only deepening your under-<br />

standing of the collection and <strong>Blancpain</strong>’s haute<br />

horlogerie innovations, but as well by introducing you<br />

to some of the personalities of <strong>Blancpain</strong>, bringing<br />

you the latest news from the manufacture and, finally,<br />

sharing with you experiences from our art de vivre.<br />

It is fitting that in our first issue of Letters From Le Brassus we write about the biggest<br />

event of this past year, the re-opening of our workshop in Le Brassus following more<br />

than a year of renovation. In the article If Walls Could Speak we are proud to give you<br />

a short tour of our completely refurbished workshop, known affectionately inside<br />

<strong>Blancpain</strong> as the “farmhouse”. Not only have we completely remodeled the farmhouse,<br />

we just completed moving our entire team of watchmakers to Le Brassus so that 100%<br />

of our production is now located there.<br />

We hope you enjoy this first issue, and encourage you to fill out the enclosed card so<br />

that you can be on the list to receive future copies.<br />

Marc A. Hayek<br />

CEO <strong>Blancpain</strong><br />
