Fri, 16 Dec 2011 16:40:02 +0100 (Reuters) - Philippe Merk, CEO of independent Swiss watch maker Audemars Piguet, answers a question during an interview with Reuters at the company headquarters in Le Brassus, December 14, 2011. Swiss watchmaker Audemars Piguet said sales over Christmas and the Chinese New Year should offer key pointers to whether the luxury goods industry will stall in the economic downturn. The sector has so far proved resilient to the global economic outlook as buoyant Asian appetite for trendy handbags and pricey timepieces makes up for slowing consumer spending in debt-crisis shaken Europe.
