Herbert Grönemeyer ist Teil der diesjährigen
Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève-Jury am 15. November in Genf.
Zitat:
However, most eyes will likely be fixed on the two celebrity musicians serving on this year’s GPHG jury. Herbert Grönemeyer is a household word in Germany and Austria, perhaps one of the most popular musicians to take a stage in the Teutonic countries since the release of his epic album 4630 Bochum in the year 1984. Outside of Germany, he is probably best known for his role as Lieutenant Werner in the epic film Das Boot. A longtime Grönemeyer fan myself, I was surprised and delighted to learn of his passion for watchmaking and look forward to his interactions with the jury.
John Mayer’s blues-inspired pop music is probably better known to English-speaking audiences than that of Herbert Grönemeyer. The 36-year-old musician, singer, producer and watch collector “Wants to be known as a watch guy,” jury member and owner of Hodinkee.com Ben Clymer recently told me. After reading through his Wikipedia biography and learning about his diverse interests, particularly in the field of design, this no longer surprises me. In fact, Mayer has penned a few columns for Hodinkee and recently participated in a video conversation with Clymer that explains some of his watch ideals. Watch it here to get your own impression of his watch expertise.
