Watches And Wonders 2022
Robb Report Singapore
|May 2022
After three years, the world's horological community finally gets a full-on fair of timepieces in Watches and Wonders 2022.
THE 2022 EDITION of Watches and Wonders was by far the most significant event for the watch industry since 2019. That year, the last of the pre-pandemic trade show circuit, saw the final incarnation of Baselworld, and the final incarnation of Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH) before the latter rebranded itself as Watches and Wonders.
The most notable difference between this and previous fairs were the heavy-hitting brands that made their way to Geneva after the demise of Baselworld. Combined with the pre-existing SIHH attendees that included the Richemont stable and other established names, it meant that Watches and Wonders was the greatest concentration of horological luxury brand power seen under one roof in modern times. Here are the highlights from the show.
