Hi all,

This is my first day at Baselworld. It's press only today.

I already was amazed by seeing the new entrance and the construction they built over the Messeplatz (the main fair square). No more blue skies.

Picture taken standing in front of the entrance of Hall 2.0.

First stop was of course the press centre, to pick up my press card

Luckily it was not too crowded and I was able to get me a locker as well. Lockers are a must if you are from the press

Second stop was The Palace. It's not Baselworld, it's heaven over there, with brands like MB&F, Christophe Claret, Ressence, De Bethune, and so on, and so on. Baselworld hasn't started officially yet, so many were still working on their booths, but I got a chance to take some pictures already. Enjoy and stay tuned for the next report, live from Baselworld.

No intrudction needed....

Christophe Claret. I will join their press conference in an hour.
