NEW YORK, NY – Luxury Suisse and World Watch Market, a new luxury products trade show with a public component, will make its debut at the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas, June 4-5. Organized by Bowen, Bragg & Mandell LLC, this first-of-its-kind trade/public event will showcase top independent watch, jewelry and pen makers from around the world, who will exhibit their newest creations, including many pieces appearing in the U.S. for the first time.

World Watch Market is the first Las Vegas luxury products show to welcome the public. Visitors will enjoy access to the designers, craftsmen and executives behind various luxury brands and have the opportunity to purchase select items on site. Opening hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, June 4 and 5. Pre-registration for full access to this segment of the show is $15 per day or $25 for both days.

Luxury Suisse is the trade component of the two-day event. It offers exhibitors an elegant and affordable alternative to the established Las Vegas trade shows. Exhibitors will set up in individual penthouse suites with panoramic city views, where they will welcome their customers, the press and invited guests, by appointment, to view their latest collections. Luxury Suisse kicks off with a champagne reception for press, exhibitors and VIP guests on the evening of Friday, June 3. A second champagne reception caps off the first day of the show on the evening of Saturday, June 4. Opening hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, June 4 and 5.

All attendees also receive complimentary show programs, featuring profiles of exhibiting brands.

You Wouldn’t Cut Your Own Hair. Why Run Your Own Retirement Sale?

After being in business for over a quarter of a century, Wayne Reid, owner of Wayne Jewelers in Wayne, Pennsylvania, decided it was time for a little “me time.” He says, “I’ve reached a point in my life where it’s time to slow down, enjoy a lot of things outside of the jewelry industry. It just seemed to be the right time.” He chose Wilkerson to handle his retirement sale because of their reputation and results. With financial goals exceeded, Reid says he made the right choice selecting Wilkerson to handle the sale. “They made every effort to push our jewelry to the forefront of the showcases,” he says, lauding Wilkerson for their finesse and expertise. Would he recommend them to other jewelers who want to make room for new merchandise, expand their business or like him, decide to call it a day? Absolutely he says, equating trying to do this kind of sale with cutting your own hair. “The results are going to happen but not as well as if you have a professional like Wilkerson do the job for you.”
