Key Points from the Discussion

The Baume et Mercier booth showcased the new Riviera, a 70s-inspired model featuring an in-house Baumatic movement with a 120-hour power reserve, indicating the brand's ambition to attract new enthusiasts.
Storied brands like Jaeger-LeCoultre excel at evoking emotion through visual consistency, with their exhibition booths mirroring their retail stores, demonstrating intelligent marketing that connects directly to emotional pleasure zones.
A Watches and Wonders experience is described as a wonderful and immersive event for any watch lover, with the booth descriptions accurately capturing the distinct brand feelings.
A reader inquired about the accessibility of Watches and Wonders, asking if it's open to retail customers, if display models can be examined, and if there are similar events in North America.
The minimalist chic aesthetic of JLC and the authentic, playful execution of Ulysse Nardin's booth were particularly appreciated by a community member.

There is nothing like this in North America? I have never been to an event like this. Can you say more about it? Is this primarily for ADs or retail customers? Can you examine the display models? Can anyone walk in to Dubuis or VC etc? Are there events? Very cool…I really admire your dedication 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💪🏻
