Baselworld 2013 has just concluded and while many are understandably quite disappointed that we didn't get a brand new Daytona, there's still a lot of other interesting watches on show. And here are some of my favorite articles of Baselworld 2013 from watches-dealer and around the Internet.But that's not all, we also checkout an interesting interview with Laurent Picciotto and also an interesting article of how you can share your love of watches and watch collecting with your partner.1.
