Twenty Years and Two New Exhibitors for the SIHH 2010

The Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie, whose 20th edition will be held from January 18th to 22nd 2010, welcomes two new exhibitors, Greubel Forsey and Richard Mille, both in perfect concordance with the values of Fine Watchmaking.

Geneva, October 12th 2009 – The Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie, organiser of the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH), to be held from January 18th to 22nd 2010, is pleased to announce the arrival of two new exhibitors. Following a vote by the SIHH Exhibitor Committee, Greubel Forsey and Richard Mille
will join the 17 brands which exhibited at the last SIHH, thereby continuing the spirit that defines the SIHH in its respect for Fine Watchmaking.

The event has continued to grow over its twenty-year existence, from 4,500 sq m of exhibition space in 1991 to more than 30,000 sq m in 2010, and from 5 exhibitors in 1991 to 19 in 2010.

Despite challenging export markets over recent months, the SIHH will continue to play its key role as a foremost private event for professionals in the Fine Watch segment. This next edition will welcome an exclusive clientele of retailers, all ambassadors for Fine Watchmaking worldwide and who will play a decisive role in leading the way out of recession in 2010.

This 20th Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie will thus open its aisles to Greubel Forsey and Richard Mille in a “City of Fine Watchmaking” that will be an even more prestigious showcase for these 19 companies, each of which strives to uphold the culture, innovation and professions that are the foundations for technical and precious Fine Watchmaking.

As a graphic designer, I'm fascinated by the crossroads between technology and aesthetics. Horology is one of these crafts, where art and engineering come together to produce mechanical wonders that grace the eye. WatchPaper was born from the desire to create an online tool where I can share my passion for watches.
