On the Road to Baselworld 2018 - What Youll See on MONOCHROME - Monochrome Watches

, Omega, Patek Phillipe, Tudor, TAG Heuer and many more… Tomorrow, the 2018 edition of world’s largest watch fair, Baselworld, will open its doors. Hundreds of new watches will be revealed to members of the press, retailers and collectors. Even though the general consensus around the fair itself seems quite negative, the industry is in relatively good shape and this won’t prevent the MONOCHROME team to “veni, vidi, referi”?– “go, see, report” live from the fair, with an incredibly?large coverage. Baselworld is coming, and we are on the road to Switzerland.We know that this edition of the Basel Watch Fair will be into the limelight, as the show itself has been widely criticized. Expensive, outdated, old-school, unadapted to the current market and to new consumer behaviours… Baselworld has never been in such a position – and these bad feelings come from all parties: brands, retailers and press members. While in 2015 there were over 1,500 exposing brands, Baselworld 2018 will be considerably smaller, with less than 700 brands present. Be reassured though, as all the big brands, those that we usually focus on, here at MONOCHROME, will still be exposing their latest novelties.
