Watchfinder chief growth officer departs
Pre-owned watch platform Watchfinder’s chief growth officer Andres Boot is leaving the company.
Posting on LinkedIn, Boot spoke fondly of his time at the Richemont-owned Watchfinder, where he’s been since 2021. “As the new year begins, my chapter as chief growth officer at Watchfinder and Richemont comes to a close this month, a fulfilling end to an incredibly rewarding journey.”
He went out of his way to thank Watchfinder’s CEO Arjen van de Vall. “A thank you to Arjen van de Vall for the trust and support,” he said.
Boot didn’t reveal the specifics of his future plans, as he currently takes some time off on a mini sabbatical in Bali, but he teased that he wouldn’t be leaving the industry altogether.
“This is farewell, but not goodbye, as I’m starting an exciting new growth chapter and I’ll share more about what’s next very soon.”
Watchfinder’s most recent financial results (for the year ending 31 March 2025) saw turnover grow 18% year-on-year, albeit with operating losses still stubborn.
