Podcasts about Baselworld

Gabe and Asher explore the rise of F.P. Journe — how a fiercely opinionated French watchmaker who was expelled from horological school at 16 built one of the most coveted brands in the world. They trace Journe's journey from launching at Baselworld in 1999 through two decades as a respected but niche independent, into the COVID-era explosion that turned $25,000 Chronomètre Bleus into $100,000 commodities. Asher shares his own experience as a former Journe collector, including walking into the LA boutique in 2016 and buying a watch off the shelf — a scenario now unthinkable. The conversation digs into what made Journe uniquely positioned for this moment: unimpeachable watchmaking, genuinely limited production, a boutique-only model built well before the hype, and a design language that's distinctive yet accessible. They also wrestle with the tensions in Journe's current allocation system — does it reward true collectors or just people who are good at playing the game? And how is it different from the corporate gatekeeping at brands like AP? Ultimately, both come away with deep respect for the discipline behind the brand. While many watchmakers overproduced during COVID and are now sitting on unsold inventory, Journe held the line — and its post-bubble values have reset well above pre-pandemic levels. A true case study of one in independent watchmaking. Openwork is a weekly podcast about how the watch industry actually works. An unfiltered look behind the scenes — no press releases, no hype, and no sponsored takes. Hosted by Asher Rapkin and Gabe Reilly, co-founders of Collective Horology.

This week on aBlogtoWatch Weekly, Rick, Ariel, David, and Ripley tackleanother full slate of watch talk and industry laughs. The crew opens with thelatest missteps in media watch coverage before getting hands-on with thestriking Zenith Defy Zero-G in blue sapphire. From the return of Las Vegas as ahub for luxury watch events to an engaging look at Breguet's legacy andtechnical mastery, they  explore the craftsmanship behind iconic movementsand the enduring influence of historic innovation on modern watchmaking. Thefour also untangle the age-old mix-up between chronographs and chronometers,proving that while one measures time and the other measures accuracy, confusionbetween the two might just be the most consistent complication in watchcollecting. When Rick reads a YouTube comment claiming that watch collectingisn't a hobby, Ariel fires back with a passionate, red-hot defense that turnswhat started as a casual jab into a full-blown debate about obsession,identity, and why passion for watches is anything but casual. Between specifieddefinitions, rants, and confessions of “it's not an addiction, it's aninterest,” the team finds humor in just how seriously enthusiasts take theirso-called pastime. If you enjoy smart banter, watch nerdery, and the kind ofchemistry only this team can deliver, then tune into this week's episode andjoin the conversation.0:00 Start[00:01:06] Weekly "Clapage": The team discusses a reader-submitted find from the London Times, which featured an article on the "hottest designs for autumn 2025" but mistakenly used a picture of a vintage Tag Heuer triple calendar moonphase instead of the new Carrera Astronomer.[00:08:43] Las Vegas Watch Scene: Ariel is excited about the revival of Las Vegas (JCK and Couture) as a major destination for watch events in the United States, reminiscing about the days before Baselworld's decline.[00:15:14] Hands-On: Zenith Defy 50G Blue Sapphire: The group discusses Ariel's hands-on with the 46mm blue sapphire Zenith, featuring the unique "ZeroG" gimbal-style mechanism designed to keep the balance wheel horizontal.[00:23:08] Show Within a Show: RantIn response to a YouTube comment ("It's not a hobby"), Ariel delivers a rant defending watch collecting as the very definition of a hobby, citing the time spent learning, socializing, trading, and building.[00:30:50] Show Within a Show: Brand SpotlightBreguet: The team discusses the immense historical importance of Abraham-Louis Breguet, his foundational inventions (tourbillon, overcoil), and the brand's modern struggles and triumphs in living up to that legacy.[00:38:39] Show Within a Show: 101 CornerChronograph vs. Chronometer: A foundational discussion explaining that a Chronograph is a watch with a stopwatch function, while a Chronometer is a watch certified for its high accuracy (e.G., by COSC). They also discuss good entry-level mechanical chronographs, like those with the Valjoux 7750 movement.[00:50:44] "What You Like" Game: Scottish CuisineLorn Sausage (Square Sausage): Compared to the Hublot Square Bang.Rumble Thumps (Potatoes, Cabbage, Cheese): Likened to a G-Shock (a reliable side dish to a collection) or a Rolex Datejust (a comforting classic).Haggis: The consensus lands on the Rolex 1908 "Land Dweller"—a watch with a bad reputation (or name) that is surprisingly good once you experience its high-quality movement.[01:07:02] Next Week's Topic: Classic horror movies (The Thing, Nightmare on Elm Street, Gremlins).[01:08:19] Wrist ChecksAriel: Casio G-Shock 30th Anniversary Neon Genesis Evangelion.Ripley: Casio 2100 series ("CasiOak") with a green dial.David: Bulgari Octo Finissimo with a copper/salmon dial.[01:10:44] Hit, Miss, MaybeBreguet 7225 Urwerk UR10 Space Meter:

We are joined today by another new friend, Alexandre Beauregard, Founder & CEO of Beauregard. The Montreal and Geneva based lapidary turned watchmaker joins us today on Keeping Time for a superb episode. Join us as we meet a watch-industry outsider who is bringing a fresh approach and the qualities of a master jeweler to the rarified world of true Haute Horlogerie. When listening, you may quickly pick up on the same vibes that we all feel knowing Alex: This is a genuine craftsman with an incredibly likeable and approachable personality. In fact, Alex's personality has created lasting friendships within the watch industry and is evident with his first Man's watch: Ulysse Aqua. When exhibiting with Beauregard at Baselworld in 2019, Alex Beauregard met the legendary watchmaker, Vianney Halter. They immediately became friends. This friendship led to a true artists' collaboration for this very special project. Join hosts Doug and Jeremy as we explore the artistic world and the remarkably creative work of Beauregard. The conversation explores the beginnings of his eponymous company and delves into the many techniques and applications and exciting challenges faced in creating Metiers D'Art timepieces. Our conversation is free and loose, as always and follows an unpredictable path aimed at unveiling the personality of one of the world's most unique and talented craftsmen.

Welcome back everyone. Please join us as your hosts Doug and Jeremy discuss the history and evolution of the Swiss Watch Shows. In this episode we go into detail outlining the history of the former Basel Watch and Jewellery Show which dated back to 1917. We discuss how the show grew, the early history and the modern history as mechanical watchmaking entered the modern era with a renaissance of fine watchmaking beginning in the late 1980's. We discuss the historical importance of the Basel Fair and also the emergence and the reasons for establishing a second important show in Genève, Switzerland. Initially the Genève show was called SIHH. Today the show has evolved into Watches and Wonders. Jeremy goes into detail and describes the experience enjoyed at the shows from the perspective of a retailer. Midway through the episode we are joined by friend of the pod, Scott Rosen. Scott, brings his experience as a vendor to the episode. As former USA Brand President for both Hublot and Vacheron Constantin, Scott relates a unique perspective from the point of view of the Manufacturer exhibiting at the all-important Swiss trade shows. As always, it is a fun and free-flowing conversation with deep insights and a little nostalgia thrown in for good measure. We hope that you enjoy this episode of Keeping Time Podcast.

 This is Superlative: A Podcast about watches, the people behind them, and the worlds that inspire them. This week our host and aBlogtoWatch Founder Ariel Adams is joined by Chris Mitchell, the Co-author of Patina Modern. Ariel and Chris start the show reminiscing about Chris's memories of the late Baselworld when he was a magazine publisher at different publications such as GQ, and Vanity Fair amongst others. The two talk about different brand parties that were attended and some not so fond memories of traveling to the show. As Ariel brands Chris as an expert with interiors, Chris talks about why he was drawn to the interior design world and how it all came to be. They talk about balancing the challenge of practicality and aesthetic as it pertains to design, but also how Chris and his wife Pilar are able to bring emotion out of their designs. Ariel asks about the investment it might take for someone to reinvent their space or renovate a home, and Chris talks about some of the challenges of renovation that they face such as the logistics of shipping. As they talk about design as a whole, Ariel starts to draw comparisons to the design and creation of watches to interior design, and he asks Chris to talk about his recent book that he co-authored with his wife Pilar, titled “Patina Modern”. To stay updated with Chris and his work: Website - https://www.patinamodern.com/ Instagram @ChrisMitchellOfficial - https://www.instagram.com/chrismitchellofficial/ Instagram @Patina.Modern - https://www.instagram.com/patina.modern/ To check out the ABTW Shop where you can see our products inspired by our love of Horology:- Shop ABTW - https://store.ablogtowatch.com/To keep updated with everything Superlative and aBlogtoWatch, check us out on:- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ablogtowatch/- Twitter - https://twitter.com/ABLOGTOWATCH- Website - https://www.ablogtowatch.com/If you enjoy the show please Subscribe, Rate, and Review!

Today we chat with veteran luxury and lifestyle journalist Kristen Shirley, the founder of La Patiala. Kristen's journey into watches starts the best way possible — Baselworld. After a crash course in the fundamentals of fine watchmaking, Shirley was hooked, and eventually developed The Watch Encyclopaedia section of her site. We also chat to Kristen about American taste in watches and how the industry is evolving to incorporate more diverse perspectives. Before that, Felix and Andy weigh in on the brand new (and very big) Deepsea Challenge, and why Kenny Rogers' Zodiac is an unsung piece of horological history. This episode is sponsored by G-Shock Australia, and to celebrate the 40th anniversary of this icon, we're talking about the origin of the watch, and how it evolved over the decade.

Es ist eine Attraktion wie das Brandenburger Tor und Schloß Neuschwanstein. Für Touristen steht es in der Top 10 der größten Sehenswürdigkeiten, die Deutschland zu bieten hat: Das Outletcity Metzingen, die Hauptstadt des Fabrikverkaufs, das erfolgreichste Outlet Europas. Über 4,2 Millionen Besucher aus 185 Ländern kommen jedes Jahr! Eine Stadt in der Stadt, eine eigene Welt. Über 150 Premium-Brands Tür an Tür. Flaggships von Prada, Gucci, Armani, Balenciaga, Versace, Breitling – alle sind hier! Eine Marke hat sogar einen eigenen Platz mitten in der Shopping-City: Hugo Boss. Denn Boss ist praktisch Erfinder dieses ganzen Retail-Konzepts! Es ist zurückzuführen auf Ferdinand Hugo Boss, der 1924 hier in seiner Heimatstadt Metzingen die Hugo Boss Bekleidungsfabrik gegründet hat. 1972 kam die Idee, einen eigenen Fabrikverkauf daraus zu starten und überschüssige oder fehlerhafte Ware direkt aus der Produktion zu veräußern. Nicht so schön präsentiert, dafür aber viel, viel günstiger als in den Stores der Highstreet. Es ist ein globales Milliarden-Business geworden. 50 Jahre Fabrikverkauf – ein schönes Jubiläum jetzt. Aber wie geht es weiter? Darüber habe ich mit General Manager René Kamm gesprochen. Viele kennen ihn noch als CEO der wichtigsten Uhrenmesse der Welt, der Baselworld und der Kunstmesse Art Basel. Ich habe ihn jetzt in seinem neuen Business in der Outletcity Metzingen besucht und über Shopping next level diskutiert. Wie sich die Einkaufswelt verändert, die neue Erwartungshaltung der Besucher, innovative Shopper-Tainment Konzepte mit Virtual Reality und einem eigenen Fashionhotel mit Laufsteg in der Lobby, was Shopping in der Zukunft wirklich ausmacht – das alles jetzt hier in TOMorrow. Also: Shoppen wir los: Viel Spaß mit dem Stadthalter im Shopping-Paradies, viel Spaß mit Managing Director René Kamm!

Mitten in Basels Innenstadt stehen immer wie mehr Läden und Geschäftsliegenschaften leer. Viele Traditionsgeschäfte sind verschwunden. Die Passantenströme versiegen. Viele sprechen schon von zunehmender Verödung. Wirkten vor nicht allzulanger Zeit noch Messen wie die Baselworld als internationale Magneten wird nun der der Zwiespalt zwischen Basels traditionellen Anspruch auf Weltgeltung und der Realität einer mittelgrossen Stadt am äussersten Rande der Schweiz offenbar. Einzig die Pharmaindustrie garantiert mit ihren Rekordgewinnen sprudelnde Steuereinnahmen. Handelt es sich bei der aktuellen Krise der Stadt um die Symptom eines im Zeitalter der Digitalisierung nötigen Strukturwandels aus dem Basel wie ein Phoenix aus der Asche neu geboren wird oder kündigt sie den permanenten Niedergangs an? Welche Rolle spielen bei den aktuellen Krisenerscheinungen die Praktiken der Immobilienbranche mit ihren grossen überregionalen und internationalen Playern und welche die Basler Politik? Nun hat die Stadt sich in ihrer über zweitausendjährigen Geschichte sich schon oft den Zeitumständen angepasst, sich neu erfunden und neu positioniert. Ob das auch jetzt so geschehen wird, bleibt aber unklar.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we're talking about some of our favorites from the recently completed Geneva Watch Days. This year's Geneva Watch Days event marked the return of in-person watch fairs to Switzerland after a long pandemic induced hiatus, and while the scale of this trade show isn't on par with Baselworld in its prime, there were still a lot of heavy hitters seeing the light of day for the first time. This isn't the normal crop of brands that we cover on Worn & Wound (almost without exception, the watches at Geneva Watch Days are extremelyhigh end, and fall squarely into the high luxury category) but there's still a lot of horologically interesting stuff coming out of the show, and some of it is undeniably beautiful and definitely worthy of discussion.Be sure to let us know if you had any favorites from Geneva Watch Days that we missed, and what you thought of our picks, by commenting on this post or finding us on Instagram.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

Christo Hoppe, Founder of Aussie watch brand Bausele, brought both passion and deep, extensive experience in the realm of watchmaking from both time at Universo, Swatch Group's parts production division, and at the financial helm of Technomarine.  After arriving in Australia and recognising that the lifestyle and environment coupled beautifully with a locally designed and Swiss made watch, Christo created Bausele. Each watch in their range incorporates physical elements from Australia either in the crown or caseback, including Bondi sand, red centre soil, crushed Opera House tile, and aircraft fuselage alloy, as well as some bespoke materials which we discuss in the podcast.Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, the brand has enjoyed some remarkable accolades for a young company. It was the first Australian brand to be invited to exhibit at Basel World, it is the official watch partner of the Sydney Opera House, jointly developed commemorative pieces for the RAAF's Centenary and more.

He'll tell us how he got into the watch industry; highlight the importance of innovation and a digital-first, data-driven movement; and give his thoughts on the watch industry going into 2021.

Episode CreditsHosts: Rob Bates and Victoria GomelskyEditor: Olivia BrileyProducer and engineer: Natalie ChometPlugs: jckonline.com, @jckmagazine Show Recap Introducing Jeffrey CohenVictoria and Rob introduce their guest, Jeffrey Cohen, president of Citizen Watch America. He's been in that role for over a decade now, and he oversees not just Citizen Watch America but a total of five brands, including Bulova, Accutron, Alpina, and Frederique Constant. His father owned a high-end luxury retail store, which first got him interested in watches, and in 1982, he became a regional sales rep at Movado. In 2010, he joined Citizen. What's In A Name? Rob asks about the name Citizen, and Jeffrey explains its importance: having a watch for all people to enjoy. Rob asks if working for a Japanese company is any different from working for an American one. Jeffery says no and emphasizes the importance of the brand over country of origin. He most greatly values innovation, and tells the JCK editors about a watch's movement that was just 1 mm thick and the innovation that went into creating it. Digital-First OperationsJeffrey says that his consumers easily transitioned to online purchasing, but also explains what his company needed more of to make its website work. Victoria also asks about Jeffrey's direct-to-consumer ambitions, and Jeffrey explains how Citizen has become a digital-first brand. The terminology it uses is "Citizen First," where its consumers get the best experience possible. Jeffrey then explains how he keeps his brands separate. Collaboration With Disney and MarvelVictoria asked how the Swiss brands Alpena and Frederique Constant are doing, and Jeffery explains how Alpena and Frederique Constant's independent retailers did very well during the holiday season. Victoria also asks what we can expect to see from Citizen this year. Jeffrey talks about its collaborations with Disney and Marvel, as well as innovation coming out of the Bulova brand and its Frank Sinatra collection. He also discusses the upcoming 2021 Grammy Awards and Citizen's involvement. Data, Data, DataJeffrey says Citizen has been using data for years now, but that the pandemic really pushed it to become a digital-first company. CRM is what it primarily uses to create additional sales for the company. Jeffrey says the watch industry's consumer is getting younger, and for Bulova, its Latino community of consumers is growing. Rob then asks about the gray market and how that affects the business. Will Trade Shows Return? Victoria asks about what used to be Baselworld and the show model that 2020 disrupted, and if Jeffrey thinks we'll be returning to that model in the future. Jeffrey says it's hard to predict when trade shows will be back up and running—but he thinks it's a question of expense. Rob asks about smartwatches, and Jeffery says that his watches provide style, design, and quality that people are still looking for. They talk a tad about the appearance of a Bulova watch on the popular Netflix show The Queen's Gambit. And Jeffrey tells us what sold-out watch he's wearing right now.

Durant les deux mois de crise sanitaire mondiale qui nous ont coupé (physiquement) du monde... Nous avons tous un peu, fait fumer nos applis de smartphones : zoom, skype, messenger, instagram... Après avoir posé une question innocente sur une story instagram sur le compte @stephanebuttichowskij : "Qui souhaiteriez-vous entendre prochainement sur le Podcast Gentleman Chemistry ?". Un nom est apparu, celui de Laurent Picciotto. Etonnante surprise ! Après avoir tagué le Monsieur sur une énième story (quid de l'engagement virtuel), je commence à discuter avec ce charmant Monsieur qui en quelques minutes m'accroche avec une grande générosité à ses passions éclectiques allant dans le désordre : de ses guitares, aux objets insolites accumulés avec le temps, aux motos et autres véhicules de genre pour au final arriver aux montres de caractère.   Aujourd'hui je suis reçu par ce personnage attachant qu'est Laurent Picciotto, animé dans tout ce qu'il entreprend par les émotions que peuvent engendrer le fait d'être curieux. La curiosité qui a alimenté tout au long de son parcours ses différentes passions : les guitares, les motos, les objets insolites mais plus précisément les montres. Oui mais attention, ce qui distingue les montres que l'on trouve dans l'écrin du 271, rue Saint-Honoré, la boutique de Montres (et cabinet de curiosité)  la plus Rock'n'Roll de France et peut être au monde qu'est Chronopassion Paris. Chez Chronopassion on ne trouve pas la montre de Monsieur tout le monde. Non, ce que l'on y trouve, ce sont des montres précieuses, rares et produites en série limitée avec chacune leur propre personnalité. De la personnalité Laurent Picciotto, en a à vendre en plus de sa quarantaine de marques exclusives destinées à susciter l'émotion d'une clientèle de passionnées de : L'Octo de Bulgari La Grand Seiko Panerai Luminor de la Maison Florentine L'épurée H. Moser & Cie De la très typée et sportive Tudor Black Bay Cette Ulysse Nardin avec cadran Manara La ZRC 300 pour explorer les fonds marins Plus classique la Bréguet à complications La plus western par Ralph Lauren La plus muerte qui tue par Fiona Kruger La Medusa de Corum L'Angelus rectangulaire Frank Muller Hublot La plus technologique Urwerk ou la Christophe Claret X-Treme 1 Itinéraire d'un enfant curieux Laurent Picciotto, naît à Toulon mais grandit à Paris, d'un père travaillant dans un laboratoire pharmaceutique qui devient par la suite entrepreneur, à l'origine d'une société de développement dans le capital risque et d'une mère femme au foyer. Laurent Picciotto décide très jeune de se lancer dans le monde du travail sans son BAC en poche en démarrant comme employé de banque (mécanographe) après son service militaire âgé de 21 ans. Ensuite il rentre au service des engagements puis à la bourse. la routine l'ennuyant il part vendre de l'assurance capitalisation, des sortes d'officines faisant signer des contrats de proximité en étant payé en avance sur commission (en finissant par devoir de l'argent à la boîte). Cet épisode du parcours de Laurent Picciotto, dura un an et demi en lui enseignant les rudiments passionnants de ce qu'il définit une école de vendeurs de tôle ondulée. Des personnes capables de vendre tout et n'importe quoi en démarchant à peu près n'importe qui. L'émotion par la curiosité de l'objet En 1987, Laurent Picciotto est âgé de 26 avec le désir d'ouvrir une boutique d'objets dans l'esprit Marina de Bourbon du Boulevard de Courcelles (boutique emblématique où la rédaction de Lui magazine allait chiner dans les années 1970/1980) ou une boutique de montres. Finalement, Laurent Picciotto opte pour le deuxième choix sans avoir de background dans l'horlogerie. Avec un père qui accumulait toute sorte d'objets ainsi que des montres (toujours avec un très étroit lien que suscite la curiosité), Laurent à une époque ou les enfants ne parlaient seulement quand on leur demandait, suivait son père découvrir les derniers modèles de chez Chaumet dans la boutique Les Intemporels. Puis en 1974 ils vont à la découverte de la Royal Oak d'Audemars Piguet, avec une ambiance "luxe" que Laurent trouve détestable : les vendeurs en smoking chuchotant. Laurent Picciotto a aussi ouvert sa propre boutique pour cette raison : vendre du luxe de manière moins austère et grandiloquente. A Genève ils parcourent la rue du Rhône en allant à la rencontre de Gérald Genta, avec qui ils lui soumettent l'idée de créer une boutique de montres à Paris. Gérald Genta Laurent Picciotto se fixe un cahier des charges précis, retrouver des maisons confidentielles. Il débute avec Gérald Genta en boutique monomarque. Gérald Genta (1931-2011) a qui le monde de l'horlogerie moderne doit beaucoup. En effet, sans Gérald Genta, le design des montres aujourd'hui aurait été différent - c'est à dire, que nous aurions tous au poignet des montres rondes avec bracelet en crocodile. Gérald Genta a inventé le design horloger à une époque ou ça ne se faisait pas. Peu avant l'arrivé de la montre au quartz (apparue avec Seiko en 1969) qui remplace de façon plutôt violente les habitudes relatives au remontage mécanique des montres, avec l'aspect simple d'entretien que propose ce système fonctionnel (la crise du Quartz). Il débute avec la très belle Maison Universal Genève en 1950 (disparue justement avec l'essor du Quartz dont on parlait précédemment), Début des années 1960 il redesigne le modèle Constellation d'Omega ; puis on lui doit également trois designs de montres emblématiques : la Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse en 1968 Audemars Piguet Royal Oak en 1970 Ia IWC Ingénieur en 1976 la Patek Philippe Nautilus en 1976 en s'inspirant d'un hublot de transatlantique équilibrant un style subtil entre élégance et sport ainsi que la Cartier's Pasha de 1985 Gérald Genta collabore également avec des interventions partielles au design modèles de montres chez : Timex Chaumet Van Cleef & Arpels Seiko Bulgari Hamilton,...  Chronopassion Paris Dans les années 1980 il fonde sa propre Maison homonyme, Gérald Genta en ouvrant à Paris en 1988 avec Laurent Picciotto sa première boutique monomarque. L'aventure Parisienne dure deux années, avec une marque confidentielle affichant à l'époque les prix les plus élevés du marché de la montre. En 1991 la boutique Chronopassion devient une boutique multimarques en passant rapidement de quinze, vingt, vingt-cinq marques de montres horlogères. Aujourd'hui Chronopassion, c'est plus de quarante marque de montres comprenant plus de la moitié de marques d'horlogerie d'indépendants. Proposer ce que les autres ne font pas Laurent Picciotto fonde en 1988 la boutique d'horlogerie Chronopassion avec la volonté et la vision de proposer à ses clients autres chose qu'une boutique de montres proposant les marques classiques des grands groupes horlogers & horlogers bijoutiers : Richemont Swatch Kering LVMH Rolex...  La boutique Chronopassion participe de 1988 à 1995 le marché était très jeune dans ce type de commerce pour constituer une clientèle avec une boutique de montres. De 1989 à 2000 la bulle horlogère explose et Chronopassion participe à la naissance nombreuses histoires d'indépendants devenus de stars aujourd'hui en jouant la carte de la proximité et de produit en mettant la marque en second plan. Aujourd'hui la mission de Chronopassion est de dénicher des créateurs horlogers qui font ce que les autres ne font pas et de les faire découvrir à la clientèle de la boutique toujours avec le même savoir faire technique et humain loin des codes des vendeurs de luxe qui chuchotent en smoking.

In this episode, we are discussing the future of fairs and dream of what type of fair that can replace Baselworld. And then, of course, Breitling released the new Chronomat with a return of the Rouleaux bracelet.

Note: This episode was taped on March 2, and does not reflect the latest news regarding the coronavirus (COVID-19). In This Episode In this episode of The Jewelry District you'll hear JCK editor-in-chief Victoria Gomelsky and news director Rob Bates talk about the visible effects of the coronavirus (COVID-19) on their hometowns in New York and California and what effects it continues to have on the jewelry industry at large. You'll also hear them talk about how the international scene has affected gold prices and what's trendy at fashion week. Rob and Victoria wrap up with a Weird Story of the Week.   Show Notes 00:30 Rob and Victoria discuss the effects of COVID-19 08:55 Rob brings up how we're seeing a spike in gold prices 10:33 Victoria discusses the trends we've been seeing throughout fashion week 12:03 Weird Story of the Week   Episode Credits Hosts: Rob Bates and Victoria Gomelsky Editor: Olivia Briley Producer and engineer: Natalie Chomet Plugs: jckonline.com, @jckmagazine   Show Recap Keep Calm and Wash Your Hands In early March, everyone was beginning to grow a little fearful of COVID-19, colloquially known as coronavirus. Rob has noticed an increase of people with face masks walking around and an abundance of Purell in the office. COVID-19 has caused the cancellations of both Baselworld and SIHH—and you'll hear what that could mean for those shows in the future. Gold Prices Spike COVID-19 isn't the only international event that's having an effect on the jewelry industry. New hostilities in the Middle East are causing the price of gold to spike at $1,600. In 2018, the average price for the year was just below $1,300—and this year people are predicting the average will be at $1,500. Hear what that means for people who own a bit of gold! Trends of Fashion Week Fashion week pushed on regardless of coronavirus-induced panic. Victoria notes the trendiest things to hit the runway were pearls, fringe, feathers, and solid gold links. If you're not at fashion week—what can you do? Stay home and support your local businesses! Weird Story of the Week: Toilet Edition Rob tells another Weird Story of the Week—and this one's a trip. A Dubai, United Arab Emirates, museum and art gallery has revealed a diamond-encrusted toilet, introduced by Coronet, an Aaron Shum jewelry brand. With 4,815 diamonds (334 cts. t.w.) valued at $1.28 million, it could make anyone's trip to the restroom sparkle. The jeweled throne even set a Guinness World Record for the greatest number of diamonds set on a toilet bowl.

Things are heating up in the industry. In this sweltering episode of the Rapaport Diamond Podcast, the team discusses the Federal Trade Commission's decision to remove the word “natural” from its definition of “diamond,” and what it means for marketers. Swatch Group's shock withdrawal from Baselworld is also on the agenda. Plus, what's everyone's favorite thing about the summer?

For many of you that follow me, you know that I'm often vocal about the way today's watch industry markets its products. Well, just about an hour ago, swatch group announced that they will not be participating in Baselworld next year. This means that a good section of the fair will now be empty (unless someone fills it up). CEO Nick Hayek even said that in today's environment of fast pace and transparency, they don't see it useful. It's only a matter of time before some of the industry giants really dive deep into social media and embraces the new form of marketing and brand awareness. Baselworld is overpriced anyway. ❗️What're your thoughts on this?! LINKS: P.S. Have you checked out my new Watchmaking course?
