I’m with you as well. The big conventions are great for seeing new tech. The high end shops are things you see in London, New York and Paris so if you’re wanting to see the wealth products of the world you can see it all in Vegas. I was there this particular time for 7 days which is way too long for my liking. Definitely not for everyone’s taste. I don’t think I’ll be back anytime soon.

I've got London nearby that has all the shops I could want, not that I really like shopping apart from books and music stuff. All the 'wealth products' are pretty irrelevant to me. Even if I were rich I'm not sure I'd want a watch that costs more than a car.
I think some of the big exhibitions have gone elsewhere in the country as London is too expensive. It is still an interesting city with all the history it has. I have the advantage of living in the country, but can be in the city in an hour by train.
Having been in the jewellery business I enjoy seeing some of the esoteric pieces as well as watches as I collect different automatics but I’ve seen my share for sure. I’m in no rush to go back to the US if anything I’ll be back in Europe or some island with no internet 😎
I can appreciate the craft and engineering of watches, but I am not one for flaunting wealth. When I travel I prefer historical and natural places that are just constantly trying to take my money.
