Luxury watch entrepreneur Jean-Claude Biver on his family-run brand
PositiveTechnology
Jean-Claude Biver, the legendary luxury watch entrepreneur behind iconic revivals like Blancpain and Hublot, opens up about running his family-led brand with a refreshing perspective. At 74, he admits feeling the "positive pressure" of time and success but frames it as motivation rather than stress. Having spent 50 years breathing life into struggling watch brands (including steering Omega and Tag Heuer), Biver now focuses on legacy—both horological and familial—while staying characteristically upbeat.
Editor’s Note: Biver’s story isn’t just about high-end timepieces—it’s a masterclass in reinvention and passion. In an industry often obsessed with heritage, his relentless optimism and hands-on approach (even post-retirement) show how personal drive can redefine entire brands. For watch enthusiasts or entrepreneurs, his mindset—turning pressure into fuel—is a timely reminder that success isn’t just about ticking boxes, but loving the grind.
