·Looks like TAG Heuer will skip Geneva next year and instead show the first set of new releases in Dubai. No word on dates, but I would have thought that it would either be just before or just after SIHH in order to allow retailers to make a single trip.

“In between Geneva in January and Basel in March, we have had in the recent years two major product presentations in the first quarter. This early discovery of our strategies, news and novelties has allowed our media and retail partners to better plan the year ahead and as such we have decided on this set up for 2020 to balance the scheduling of the other events”, declared Jean-Christophe Babin.
As previously announced, Bvlgari, TAG Heuer, Hublot and Zenith are also confirming in parallel their presence at Baselworld 2020, late April/early May. “We remain very supportive and loyal to Baselworld and the Swiss watchmaking industry.

This additional event further confirms the LVMH commitment to the strategic and profitable watch category”, said Stéphane Bianchi.
