The Baselworld exhibition expects to see over 100,000 visitors that will include industry experts, aficionados from 100 different countries, and journalist from around the world. Over 1,800 exhibitors from more than 40 countries will present renowned brands such as Dior, Rolex, and Tag Heuer that have exclusive deals with Baselworld and use the exhibition to reveal their latest creations.

Luxury Swiss watchmaker, Hublot, is set to be one of this years stars with a diamond encrusted watch that features over 1,200 individual diamonds. The watch took over 14 months to create and includes the use of a master cutter from New York to ensure the largest stone was perfectly set. The display of the watch will surely help Hublot to follow on from last years success when the Big Bang watch sold out almost instantaneously upon release.
