Exhibition – Swatch Group Baselworld 2017 Novelties To Be Displayed at Tourbillon Boutique, Amsterdam

We, watch journalists, are privileged, as we get to see all the novelties of the year to come at Baselworld.

Here are seven quotes from the night that speak volumes about the significance of what took place. “This is the biggest Omega boutique in the world.” – Omega President, Raynald Aeschlimann, on the two-storey Sydney boutique, which is as much a gallery and hang space as it is a traditional store.
