“The concept? An immersive experience between Geneva and Schaffhausen, meeting the men and women who shape contemporary Fine Watchmaking. For five days, 24 readers from around the world, passionate about watchmaking and curious to discover the Swiss lifestyle, will be given a behind-the-scenes look at the jewels in the watchmaking crown. An invitation to go through the looking glass, where only a few insiders usually have access, as well as to explore the unique expertise of Swiss artisans, in a warm, friendly atmosphere.”
Our Thoughts
The Watch Safari is an incredible opportunity to experience Swiss watchmaking and Switzerland in a brief time span. We highly recommend it to watch enthusiasts, regardless of where they presently are in their watch collecting journey. The fortunate 24 enthusiasts will gain a firsthand introduction and knowledge of the different brands they will visit, including their history, watchmaking philosophy and what makes them unique. It is an opportunity to make new friends and acquaintances and enjoy good food and wine. There are only 24 places, so please hurry and book if interested.
