Thanks for the great new JLC forum ! I'm writing an article about the history of JLC and wonder if anyone can tell me: 1) When Audemars Piguet bought 40% of JLC (1978?) 2) When exactly Richemont took over JLC 100% 3) What was the sales price for JLC to Richemont Thanks in advance and regards, Anders | ||

My research has found that 1. Audemars Piguet bought 40% of JLC in 1989. 2. In 2000 Richemont purchased Les Manufactures Horlog�res SA from Mannesmann, 3. for EU1.84 billion. | ||

Further 3. Richemont actually paid CHF 2.8 billion to Mannesmann AG and CHF 280 million to Audemars Piguet. | ||
