Rest in Peace, Rolf Schnyder CEO of Ulysse Nardin  0 Comments

Published Saturday, April 16, 2011 by Harry SK Tan |

 


After a short illness, Mr Rolf Schnyder the CEO of Ulysse Nardin on the 14th April 2011. Rolf over the past decades after his acquisition of UN, shaped the company into a highly respected and innovative company. Considered by many to be a horological visionary who was able to deliver on what he considers to be high horology. His passing comes as shock and his absence from the watch industry will be felt not just by the industry but by collectors who have come to know him personally. Rolf made Malaysia his home but passion was in Switzerland's watch making. He leaves behind his wife and three children.

Rest in peace Rolf. You will be missed.
