In less than a month, Watches & Wonders 2023 will open its doors and will welcome some of the world’s most prestigious luxury watch brands to unveil their latest timepieces to a host of international top suppliers and consumers. As one of the UK’s leading luxury watch and jewellery stockists, our specialist team at Jura Watches will be representing C W Sellors by gaining exclusive access to all the latest luxury watch news in real time.

This year, Watches & Wonders 2023 is expected to be Geneva’s largest watchmaking network of pioneering timekeepers and innovators. A total of 48 exhibiting Maisons will come together to provide an action-packed program that is, in more ways than one, set to be full of world-firsts, Watches and… well… wonders! Special guests, retailers and the press will be welcomed to kickstart the 2023 Watches & Wonders event but the question on everyone’s lips is “Who is going to be at Watches & Wonders 2023? Read on to find out more...
Watches & Wonders 2023 begins on Match 27th. Between this date and the 1st of April, watchmaking will be taking over the centre of Geneva with a mix of exhibitions that will take part in a series of activities including animations and exhibitions held at luxury watch boutiques, a special rally, guided visits and conferences that unite a passion amongst all who attend. Then on March 30th, the streets of Geneva will come alive with an evening of exciting festivities that include live music from a range of artists, dancers and bands all performing on the Rue Basses as spectators and watch fans alike will gather at this special district, where major watch brands and boutiques line this renowned street. For the remainder of the event, an extensive programme has been devised for April 1st to April 2nd when the Salon opens to the public. But which brands are you expected to find at the showcase? Whether you’re a fan of classic dress watches, vintage-inspired pilot watches, robust sports watches or scintillating gem-set timepieces, you’re guaranteed to be in for a treat at this year’s annual luxury watch event.
Last year an impressive 38 watch brands attended the Watches & Wonders 2022 event, along with 22,000 visitors, in what was the first event to take place in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. Following its success, this year we can expect a total of 48 brands to attend. Amongst these are Swiss watch brand Alpina, Paris-based watchmaker Bell & Ross (known for its aviation-inspired square watches), innovator of the iconic Monaco watch - TAG Heuer, red rotor brand Oris, pilot watch specialists IWC Schaffhausen, luxury writing instrument manufacturer Montblanc, Italian brand U-boat and one of our personal favourites - Frederique Constant.
Aside from all the excitement culminated by the Watches & Wonders 2023 showcase, one thing is clear. Leading innovators of the luxury watch industry still want to reach their consumers in a personable way. In a way that feels exclusive. Important. Special. For many watch fanatics, there is only one way to celebrate the craft and art form of watchmaking and that’s with one big annual Swiss-based show. Who are you most excited to see unveil its finest offerings this year?
