Biver's stepping down is related to his health Jean-Claude Biver is not retiring but rather taking the role of non-executive chairman of the LVMH Watchmaking Division Who will make the creative decisions? Who will stand in Mr.

Biver's legendary shoes? Replacing Jean-Claude Biver is Mr Stéphane Bianchi who has just recently joined LVMH after a number of years in mainstream fashion and women's cosmetics at Yves Rocher Stéphane Bianchi will not merely take over the CEO position at TAG Heuer, but will entirely take over Mr.

Biver's role as CEO of the LVMH Watchmaking Division No further information on planned direction or timelines in regard to the Watch Division were communicated by LVMH aBlogtoWatch Analysis Of Mr.

Biver's New Role & The Qualifications of Stéphane Bianchi For TAG Heuer Watches During his long post-surgery recovery process, Mr Biver has clearly not been able to offer the type of in-person attention TAG Heuer or any of the other brands need.

My takeaway is that Jean-Claude Biver will not only be able to make decisions on a regular basis, but will be able to still lead a lot of TAG Heuer brand direction for several years to come. . Source
