The appointment is effective immediately. Murray will report to Thomas J.

Murray, who is based in New York, will be responsible for the company’s investor relations, business and trade media communications, corporate events and will act as the company’s primary jewelry and watch liaison with the consumer and fashion media.

Previously Murray was a senior vice president at Polo Ralph Lauren where she served in a variety of communications positions from 1999 until August 2007. During her tenure at Polo, she was the company’s chief liaison to the investment community and had oversight of corporate, employee, and fashion communications, as well as investor relations. Prior to joining Polo, she was vice president of Investor Relations and Corporate Communications at BF Holdings, Inc., responsible for financial and media relations, crisis management and public relations for the New York-based advertising and marketing corporation.
