What is Baselworld?
March 09, 2016
Baselworld is an international trade show featuring the best of the watch and jewelry industries from around the world. It takes place annually in Basel, Switzerland and watchmakers and jewelers use the international attention paid to the event to showcase their latest innovations and set trends for the year to follow.
Taking place from March 17-24, 2016, this year event coordinators expect up to 150,000 guests and will feature 1,500 brands from 40 countries around the world. The name of the event has changed several times since it began in the early 20th century, most recently becoming known as Baselworld in 2003.
