The name Baselworld was not in use until 2003. The event was called<br />
the Swiss Watch Show until 1983 when it was renamed BASEL 83 (the<br />
numbers denoting the year). It was then renamed BASEL 95 – The<br />
World Watch, Clock and Jewellery Show in 1995. Finally, in 2003 the<br />
current name of Baselworld, The Watch and Jewellery show was<br />
introduced. This name change took place before the exhibition area<br />
was extended once again in 2004 in line with the demand for people to<br />
attend the event.<br />
In 2013 the exhibition area was modernised and Baselworld had<br />
truly become known as the most important event on the horological<br />
calendar. As we move towards the 100th anniversary of Baselworld,<br />
the event continues to be the one to watch out for and Baselworld<br />
<strong>2017</strong> could certainly be the most exciting in the history of Baselworld!<br />
