Lee Westwood, Andrew “Beef” Johnston and Matt Wallace, three members of Audemars Piguet’s Golf Dream Team visited Audemars Piguet’s home in to Le Brassus.
After their visit of the Manufacture, Audemars Piguet Chief Executive Officer and former golf professional François-Henry Bennahmias took the three ambassadors on a sightseeing helicopter trip to Caux, near Montreux, where they stopped for a dedicated visit of the Chalet Claude Nobs. This chalet houses the archives of the Montreux Jazz Festival, the first audio-visual library protected by the UNESCO. The archives contain more than 15,000 hours of audio-visual recordings encompassing almost half a century of the festival’s history. Quincy Jones has described this unique collection as “the most important testimonial to the history of music, covering jazz, blues and rock.” Audemars Piguet supports the Montreux Sounds and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) in the development of the Montreux Jazz Digital Project, which seeks to digitise, restore, and preserve these sound archives.
The English trio is part of Audemars Piguet’s Golf Dream Team, which constitutes one of the finest teams of professional golfers.
