    “When I think about my history, I think of all the people and encounters that have played a determining role. Those who made me who I am, who believed in me and who played a role in boosting my career. Sometimes talent just needs a helping hand from destiny to find success” Jean-Claude Biver, Chairman of Hublot and Chairman of LVMH Watch Division.

    Special award recognition was given to Brynjar Sigurõarson for his work and his use of materials from his native Iceland.

    Congratulations to the winners!
