Like watches? Want to report on them for Baume & Mercier from SIHH? Well, the company is inviting fans to submit videos to win a spot at SIHH courtesy of B&M. SIHH is the fanciest darn show you’ll ever attend (every reporter gets a sherpa to carry their notebooks and cameras!)

Give it a try. Can’t hurt.

Baume & Mercier is holding a contest on Facebook. We are inviting our 75,000 Fans to compete to become a “Very Special Reporter” at the SIHH (Salon International de La Haute Horlogerie).
