The Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) is known as the Oscars of watchmaking. According to its website, it’s about “neutrality, independence and universality.” Carine Maillard, director of the GPHG, never wears a watch for fear of being seen as backing a brand.

But the industry has turned a blind eye to the apparent conflicts of interest his appointment presents. Miss Tweed explains why.
