Watchonista’s Baselworld Picks And Opinion, Can We #SaveBaselworld?

The final numbers coming out of Baselworld are here, and they're not pretty. In fact, they closely reflect the feeling we all had on site. Attendance was down: 81,200 people (-22% from 2018), 3,300 media representatives (- 18%), 500 exhibitors (-12%). Disappointing to say the least. Still, there are some positives to note. Ben and Josh take a closer look.
