by Ian Skellern
The 2023 Dubai Watch Week (DWW) has drawn to a close and what a fair it was: simply sensational.
Here is Part 2 of my DWW 2023 photofest. You can check out more photos and videos at
Dubai Watch Week 2023 Photofest and Videos – Part 1.
Enjoy!
Starting with a highlight, the sensational Van Cleef & Arples booth.
Unidentified Funding Object panel at Dubai Watch Week 2023
As someone extremely unlikely to be involved in a company buyout, I wasn’t expecting this panel to be as interesting and informative as it was. If you have any interest in Czapek, Moser or De Bethune, don’t miss Unidentified Funding Object: Navigating Company Buy-Outs, superbly moderated by GaryG.

The best horological presentation I’ve ever seen: Stephen McDonnell at Dubai Watch Week 2023
Don’t miss The Trials And Tribulations Of Watch Innovation With Stephen McDonnell. If you are not so much into the technical aspects of movement development, I suggest starting the video at 34:40 where McDonnell goes into the more emotional stresses he goes through.
And McDonnell ends with an excellent explanation of what’s the point of outdated high-end mechanical watches.
