With Dubai Watch Week starting next week and Baselworld cancelling their convention next year, Mike takes the time to reflect on the past and future of the watch show. But not before highlighting some of his favorite pieces in the WatchBox vault: the distinct A. Lange & Sohne Cabaret, a classic Rolex Day-Date in white gold and the Rolex Pearlmaster with a sapphire bezel.
Mike reacts to the news of Baselworld’s cancellation and reflects on his decades-long experience with the fair. While the shifting sands of the watch industry weren’t advantageous for the show, he celebrates the “good old days” of the show’s past. He then shifts his focus to Dubai Watch Week, which he sees as the future of the watch fair. He highlights the upcoming events and happenings at the show, along with WatchBox’s upcoming involvement and coverage.
