Baselworld is pretty incredible. I've been there several times and am always amazed at the spectacular displays of the high-end watch companies. Rolex does their part to outdo everyone else. It's really something to see!

Do you ever go to the tool hall, Jocke?

I'm very Jealous Jocke, someday I will make the trip, maybe you'll see the watches by Philip Dufours? I've been reading about him but have yet to see any watches in person. And I assume you'll be doing a blog or like last year a few threads with all the Rolex news?

How will you decide which watch to wear on which day though? Almost as much planning required for that as the travel logistics ;-)

Of course there will be a report with all the news as usual.

There use to be one or two that wait for that one every year.

I can only have one with me because Switzerland is not in the European Union.
If everything works so will I have a sparkling new one that will arrive a few days before
we go to Basel.

In that case that will be the choice, if I don't get it so will I rolling the dice.

Hope it all goes to plan and you have a new one to wear. If not then I guess a large dice is required! Look forward to the reports.
