WatchTime is set to make a highly anticipated return to New York City this month, showcasing an impressive lineup of 48 watch brands and unveiling a variety of new timepieces, including exclusive releases and world premieres from renowned names in both independent and luxury watchmaking.
The 11th edition of the event will be hosted at Gotham Hall from 16 to 18 October, offering collectors a rare opportunity for three days of immersive interaction with new watch models as well as the chance to engage directly with brand representatives, watchmakers, and industry executives.
This event has established itself as a significant occasion in New York’s watch community, emphasising the importance of direct engagement between collectors and the brands they admire.
Among the event’s standout offerings is the Kudoke 3 Raspberry, which will officially debut at WatchTime. Additionally, Artime will present a limited run of its 12-piece ART02 Rostovsky/Cellini Edition. Frederique Constant is also poised to reveal a new limited-edition model for the first time at this show.
The exhibition will feature a range of sophisticated timepieces, including the limited-edition Piaget Polo Minute Repeater, with only five pieces available, alongside the Gerald Charles Masterlink Perpetual Calendar, Voutilainen’s latest 28MPR, and Fears’ inaugural high-complication and moonphase watch, the Brunswick 39 Perpetual Calendar.
For collectors in search of innovative designs, Ressence will unveil the Type 11, its first watch equipped with an in-house movement, while Parmigiani Fleurier will display the Tonda PF Chronographe Mystérieux. Urwerk will also bring to the show its exclusive 25-piece UR-150 Golden Scorpion.
In addition to the new and unique timepieces, attendees can look forward to fresh releases from well-established brands. Highlights include the Blancpain Lady B, the MB&F diamond-set SP One Pavée, Zenith’s Chronomaster Solo Sport, and Citizen’s ATTESA Eco-Drive 50th Anniversary Power of Purple Aurora.
“WatchTime New York was founded on the premise that U.S. collectors desired more than just a showcase; they sought access to the individuals behind the watches,” stated Sara Orlando, Publisher of WatchTime. “With eleven editions under our belt, that pioneering spirit continues to shape the event.”
Tickets for Saturday and Sunday sessions are still available for purchase online.
