  My first BaselWorld day kicked off with the traditional fair press conference where I discovered that Swiss exports were up 1.9%, that I was one of a staggering 4,000 journalists visiting the show, and one of the 50 percent of people working in the Swiss watch industry who aren’t actually Swiss! I wasn’t quite […]

Today over 100,000 people from over 100 countries are crossing oceans and continents on their way to BaselWorld for the largest watch fair in the world.  As Revolution’s Swiss editor my journey is only a feeble 229 km, but it doesn’t make it any the less exciting as I prepare for one of the most […]

BaselWorld 2013: Highlights And Live Pics From Patek Philippe’s 2013 Debuts, Plus Decorative Arts Masterpieces

There’s no doubt that one of the most anticipated launches at BaselWorld come from Patek Philippe and seirous connoisseurs the world over watch with bated breath to see what this most haute of haute de gamme manufacturers will show.  There is a certain dignity in the way in which Patek Philippe generally avoids the presentation of “novelties,” that are merely […]

BaselWorld 2013: URWERK Shows Red And Black UR 110 PTH, Teases New Complication

Among the independent watch creators, URWERK is notable for having succeeded in making watches that (we at REVOLUTION have always thought) succeed better than most at seamlessly combining mechanics and aesthetics into a whole greater than the sum of its parts.  At this year’s BaselWorld they continued their winning streak with, among other things, a […]
