The 27th edition of SIHH – Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie takes place at Geneva’s Palexpo in January 2017 and for the first time in history of the event it is opened not only to the industry professionals and press, but also to the public.

I was happy to attend the exhibition and found it insightful and inspiring. So many watchmakers, brand respresetatives, CEO, brand ambassadors (world starts like Pierce Brosnan, Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds, Ronan Keating , Adraina Lima and others) are there to answer questions, talk about their passion for watches and share thoughts. SIHH is a perfect stage for emerging trends and established brands that take place in capital of watchmaking, Geneva.Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie SIHH 2017
