This New 10-Night Luxury Cruise Spotlights Mexico's Baja California Peninsula
Ponant wants to help you see Mexico in a whole new way. The French cruise line has just announced it will be taking seafarers to Baja California in the winter of 2027. The new 10-night itinerary, aptly named Exploration in the Heart of Baja California, aims to spotlight the best of this ecologically rich region. More from Robb Report Bethenny Frankel Sold Her Her Historic Greenwich Estate in a Clandestine $7.8 Million Deal The Architects Behind the Musée Yves Saint Laurent Marrakesh Designed This $6.7 Million London Flat This Ultra-Limited Bourbon Is an Ode to One of Kentucky's Most Legendary Distilleries Throughout the first three months of 2027, the 430-foot Le Bellot will carry out four round-trip journeys around the famous peninsula. Departing from Cano San Lucas, the upscale cruise ship will take up to 184 guests on each adventure. All 92 staterooms and suites onboard the liner feature private balconies or terraces. Seafarers can also expect Ponant's signature French touch and attentive service. Developed over three years with the help of local communities, the curated itineraries will spotlight natural wonders, including the coral reefs and marine animals that abound in the UNESCO-designated Gulf of California. Guests may see gray, blue, and humpback whales or a bottlenose dolphin, for instance. Shore landings will also allow travelers to explore coastal towns like Loreto. 'From awe-inspiring wildlife encounters with whales and sea lions to the rugged beauty of desert canyons and the charm of small coastal towns, our new Baja California itinerary is shaped by respect—both for the environment and the local communities who helped bring it to life,' Samuel Chamberlain, CEO of Ponant Explorations Group, said in a statement. One voyage will be operated in partnership with frequent Ponant collaborator Smithsonian Journeys. Departing on February 10, 2027, this trip includes an onboard lecture series that will provide seafarers with insight into the region's history, culture, environment, and wildlife. Two Smithsonian Journeys experts will be on hand to answer any burning questions and provide valuable intel about each destination. Designed to suit both leisure and adventure travelers, the itinerary includes optional snorkeling, scuba diving, and canyon hiking. It also offers a curated excursion and/or activity at each port of call. To top it off, Ponant says guests will be able to partake in 'a high-impact whale experience that no other cruise line operates.' Given the proximity of Baja California to the U.S., Ponant's new itinerary is a great choice for stateside travelers looking for a quick and easy escape. Departures for the 2027 Baja California itinerary include: January 31, February 10, February 20, and March 2. Contact Ponant for more information.

Swiss Watch Exports Surged in April, as the Threat of Higher U.S. Tariffs Loom
Ahead of President Trump's looming tariffs on Switzerland, watchmakers and retailers alike are clamoring to get their hands on timepieces. 1.3 million Swiss watches left the European country in April, totaling $3 billion (2.5 billion Swiss francs). That's an 18 percent increase from the same time last year, according to the Federation of Swiss Watch Industry's latest data, Bloomberg reported. More from Robb Report Meet the Texas Distilleries Working to Show the Effects of Climate on Whiskey Flavor Sara Gilbert Puts Her Modern L.A. Farmhouse Back on the Market for $10 Million H. Moser & Cie. Teams Up With Alpine Motorsports on New Race-Inspired Streamliner Watches The U.S. was the main driver of the surge, making up 33 percent of the market. Exports stateside skyrocketed 149 percent year-over-year to hit a total of $851.9 million—a figure that's equivalent to around a fifth of 2024's total exports to the United States. In particular, timepieces made from precious metals, steel, and bimetallic materials, saw the biggest increases. The drastic jump seen in April is the 'result of early shipments prompted by the announcement of U.S. tariffs,' Jean-Philippe Bertschy, an analyst at investment firm Vontobel, told Bloomberg. The hike is likely a direct response to the tariffs and not indicative of an increase demand, he said. As we mentioned, Trump announced a 10 percent tariff on Swiss imports back in April. Since then, he has discussed adding an additional 31 percent levy if a trade deal isn't struck by July 9; that deadline, however, could be pushed back to a later time, according to Bloomberg. As for the rest of the world, it didn't see a similar surge. Removing the U.S. from the equation, Swiss exports fell 6.4 percent across the globe in April. The Asian market struggled: China had one of the larger drops, with a 30 percent decrease, while Singapore and Hong Kong saw exports drop 9 percent and 23 percent, respectively. The U.K., Japan, and France, meanwhile, saw only single-digit growth, according to WWD. The U.S. tariffs could affect more than just Swiss watches. The levies would impact luxury automakers, too, though they will not apply to cars over 25 years old. The American wine industry, meanwhile, could suffer in the face of any sort of trade war—which could lead to a massive boom on the secondary market. With the Swiss watch industry, though, we'll just have to wait and see how things shake out.
