A. Lange & Söhne has appointed Thibaut Pellegrin as brand manager of Western Europe. In short, he will oversee the French, Belgian, Luxembourg, Spanish and Pourtuguese markets. The executive succeeds Jacques Thomas, who retired, and will be based in Madrid, at the Richemont Iberia offices.

A precision timepiece enthusiast, the 30-year old executive started out at L'Oréal.
