Apple has poached a sales director from TAG Heuer to help launch the iWatch, reports CNBC.

The company is planning to use the prestigious "Swiss Made" label to market the smartwatch, according to Jean-Claude Biver, the head of LVMH's watch brands. LVMH owns Swiss watchmakers TAG Heuer, Hublot and Zenith.

Biver says that TAG Heuer's sales director left as recently as last week, "to take a contract with Apple" in order to launch the iWatch.

Apple has tried to poach a number of employees from high-end Swiss watch makes without much success, say analysts.

The company is expected to release an iWatch later this year with recent reports predicting a 'Sports' model and a 'Designer' model of its iWatch.

It's in every company's best interest to say they're better than the competition... Why is this such a personal issue to fans of certain companies? You guys are like all control freaks

Apple is at it at what it does better again, stealing, ideas, minds, designs, styles, and it's just keep being would've, could've, should've.

Yeah iWatch is the competition. Why is he so happy, unless he's getting $$$$ from this.
