The Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie continues to attract the leading names in luxury and talented independents. More than ever, this prestigious event sets the standard in the watchmaking world and stays up to speed with a changing environment.

It’s the first fair of the year, setting the scene and previewing the trends for the twelve months to come. It’s also a fabulous showcase with no equivalent anywhere in the world, as much for its prestigious exhibitors as the quality of its infrastructure.

Thirty-five exhibitors (including no fewer than six new arrivals), a day for the general public (carrying on from last year’s success), the launch of a unique networking and content hub at the heart of the fair: Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie gains in size and scope.

Geneva  Important new developments will  be  part  of  the  28th Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH), taking place January 15th to 19th 2018.

The central aisles are extended  for  the  arrival of Hermès, while a bigger Carré des Horlogers makes room for DeWitt, Chronométrie FerdinandBerthoud and Romain Gauthier: SIHH is expanding on a par with its international renown.  These new arrivals bring the total number of  exhibitors  to 35, with 18 Historic Maisons and 17 Carré des Horlogers brands, all dedicated to achieving excellence in the measurement  of time.The epicentre of Fine Watchmaking, SIHH retains the  selectiveness  and exclusivity that has underpinned its success for the past 27 years.

 “There is no intention of extending SIHH indefinitely. It will grow within carefully measured limits so as to preserve the values of excellence that have forged its reputation.  It  must  also meet the expectations of its exhibitors and clients, both now and in the future,” commented SIHH Managing Director, Fabienne  Lupo.

 

Each January in Geneva, exhibitors unveil their finest  creations.  This is  also  where the latest trends in technical and precious watchmaking are revealed, and where the people who are shaping the industry today and tomorrow meet. Professionals, journalists and influencers, experienced and aspiring collectors all converge on this unique  and eagerly anticipated event. By moving forward this way, SIHH  accompanies  the  remarkable  progression observed within the Fine Watch segment these past years. New players, new clients, new markets… the luxury business is extending its boundaries and engaging in a genuine dialogue  with its fans.

In keeping with this spirit, SIHH opened its doors to the public for one day last year,  and  will be doing the same again in 2018.
