From heritage watch houses to avant-garde ateliers, discover this season’s standout timepieces at the Watches & Wonders 2025.

CHOPARD
L’Heure du Diamant

With L’Heure du Diamant, Chopard embraces brilliance with unmistakable flair. Crafted in ethical gold and encircled by diamonds using the Maison’s signature crown-setting technique, each 26mm piece offers a dazzling rendition featuring vibrant coloured dials in striking hues that add a fresh pop to the timeless silhouette.

HUBLOT
Magic Gold

Hublot’s Magic Gold combines the resilience of ceramic with the gilded lustre of gold in a unique masterpiece. Scratch-resistant, developed in-house and limited to 100 pieces, the Big Bang 20th Anniversary Magic Gold edition pairs this extraordinary metal with a carbon-patterned dial and gilt details for a fusion of innovation and style.

JAEGER-LECOULTRE
Reverso Tribute Monoface Small Seconds

The legendary Reverso turns heads once again with the Tribute Monoface Small Seconds. With a Milanese bracelet in pink gold and a matching grained dial, it radiates vintage elegance with a contemporary twist. Featuring an iconic swiveling case composed of 50 components, below the surface lies the Calibre 822 – a hand-wound movement that offers 42 hours of power and a whisper-thin profile – a testament to its confident modernity in the world of watchmaking.

PIAGET
Andy Warhol

Piaget takes a playful turn with the Andy Warhol timepieces that channel its artistic soul. The newly christened creations, now available in opal and sapphires, fuses bold design with precious materials to spectacular effect. The dial’s tiger’s eye version, with its golden shimmer and organic striations, is pure 1970s chic and a nod to Warhol’s own Piaget collection.

VACHERON CONSTANTIN
Traditionnelle Moon Phase

Vacheron Constantin’s Traditionnelle Moon Phase elevates the Maison’s watchmaking traditions. A masterpiece in understated luxury, the pink gold timepiece – limited to just 270 pieces – features a diamond-set 36mm case and a lustrous mother-of-pearl dial. The moon phase complication, powered by the Calibre 1410 AS/270, is accompanied by small seconds for ultimate precision and a power reserve display, a showcase of the maison’s mechanical prowess. With its Maltese cross motif and ‘côte unique’ finishing, this piece is history and horology, harmonised.

FREDERIQUE CONSTANT
Classic Perpetual Calendar Manufacture

The Classic Perpetual Calendar Manufacture by the Geneva-based watchmaker proves that high complication doesn’t have to mean high price. Housed in a sleek 40mm steel case with a rich salmon dial, it combines sophistication with accessibility. Inside beats the FC-776 calibre, Frederique Constant’s 34th in-house movement, now with a three-day power reserve. Elegant, functional, and finely finished, this watch is a quiet revolution in Swiss watchmaking.

ROLEX
The Oyster Perpetual

A muted lavender, a warm sandy beige and a fresh pistachio green – Rolex reinvents minimalism for the Oyster Perpetual collection, bringing a fresh perspective to the classic line. With matt lacquer dials and smooth Oystersteel cases, these watches radiate effortless cool. Each piece houses cutting-edge calibres (2232 or 3230) and offers the robustness and elegance Rolex is known for.

VAN CLEEF & ARPELS
Lady Arpels Bal des Amoureux Automate

The Lady Arpels Bal des Amoureux Automate tells a tale of romance under the Parisian stars. Showcasing a poetic complication, it brings two lovers together at midnight and noon, all at the push of a button. Stars mark the hours and minutes via a double retrograde display, adding another layer of magic and innovation. The cobblestone streets and lanterns are delicately sculpted in white gold, while a guinguette-inspired backdrop recreates the joy of an open-air Parisian soirée.
