Testimonials

This Masterclass broadened my perspective on traditional distribution and some of the peculiarities of different global markets, but more than anything, it made me really think about what the future of distribution looked like, the future of the global watch industry, and forward-looking initiatives that merit to be pursued. It really marked a big turning point in my career, and I would recommend it to anyone who in the future would rather lead the trend rather than chase it. Didn't Bennahmias say, "To break the rules you must first master them"? Watch Trade Academy is a good place to start.
