“It all started when we discovered the results of the WorldWatchReport™ 2014: most of the fastest growing watch brands in China are brands which speak to fashion-forward upscale Chinese devotees,” indicates Shanghai-based Pablo Mauron, General Manager China, at Digital Luxury Group. “Chinese luxury consumers are on average much younger than the rest of the world and eager to use technology to showcase their personal tastes – hence the idea of connecting our clients to this strategic Chinese audience.”

Starting March 27th and throughout Baselworld, Xu will report live from the fair, sharing with his Chinese audience the most exciting new watch models unveiled by DLG clients. “My goal is to connect Baselworld’s most beautiful novelties with my fans, who cannot wait to discover the latest watchmaking trends,” says Xu.
