I posted a post about BNB concept’s probable declare of bankruptcy at helloreplicas.net. As a very important movement manufacturer the news was very bad and sad Swiss watch making world.
And today, I just got the news that Hublot watch, the well established luxury watch brand and the VIP client of BNB concept, would take over the movement maker. I had never thought Hublot watches would play a role of a big hero who comes to rescue a brand in danger. And LVMH, who owned the Hublot has annouced and confirmed that it will buy BNB concept.
I do not know what it means very clearly. But Hublot did reveal not long ago that it wanted to be a movement manufacturer in near future and produce movements for their luxury watches themselves.
And the news further reveals that Hublot is trying to get part of BNB Concept’s technology, personal and machnery. But news just stops here without telling that if Hublot will operate the purchased BNB Concept in the origianal manufacture or transfer it to other place.
What is sure is that, Hublot watches can not save 100% of BNB concept. It can only rescue part of it, which means that part of BNB concept’s staff will lose job, and the clients may have to turn to other movement provider, though they have few options.
