Watch Industry: Unification or Division? - Jeweller Magazine: Jewellery News and Trends

Baselworld was once a symbol of global unity, offering a space for the watch industry at large to gather annually. MARTIN FOSTER explains that in a post-pandemic world, such a unity between Swiss and international brands may never be seen again.

Diamonds.net - Are Trade Shows Going to Happen in 2021?


RAPAPORT... Three weeks in March 2020 underscored how fast the situation could change during Covid-19. On the third of the month, JCK announced that its annual Las Vegas shows would take place as usual in late May and early June, despite the outbreak. On the 17th of the month, it called them off.
What happened in between was unprecedented. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the novel coronavirus a pandemic on March 11. US industry events got canceled. Diamond bourses around the world started to close their trading halls. And the state of Nevada ordered all nonessential businesses to close to the public for 30 days, forcing JCK’s hand.

Massive Influx Of Brands For Watches And Wonders


In this Article
Watches and Wonders will proceed with a ‘phygital’ strategy for 2021 starting with a digital-only event followed by a physical show in Shanghai days later.
The watch trade show previously known as SIHH, took place in Geneva in January for press, retailers and VIP customers in recent years focusing on the luxury end of the watch market and was made up of predominantly Richemont-owned brands along with a selection of invited high-end independent brands.
It was one of the two biggest events in the watch industry’s calendar, the other being the bigger, 100+ year-old Baselworld. But as Baselworld’s reputation crumbled (with high prices and complacency on the part of the organizers often cited as the reason behind its demise) SIHH saw a swell in the number of brands wanting to exhibit, which in turn put pressure on its staging as the more boutique of the two shows.
