“It is particularly pleasing to have delivered this performance against such strong prior year comparatives, with the expertise and dedication of my colleagues proving invaluable.”

In the UK, Watches of Switzerland opened 18 new stores and completed the refurbishment of 17 existing stores.

"We enter the next financial year with strong momentum with consumer demand continuing to outpace supply, and within this environment, we are benefitting from our strength both in showrooms and online,” he said.
