Watches & Wonders 2025 has once again set the stage for the most anticipated timepiece launches of the year. What’s crazy this time round, is that the fair will be the largest to date, with 60 brands exhibiting their watches. We’re familiar with the usual names—Rolex, Patek Philippe, Cartier, and Chanel—but this year, we’re also seeing more independent brands, such as Christiaan van der Klaauw, Genus, Kross Studio, and MeisterSinger.
The world of horology is currently abuzz with anticipation over what Watches and Wonders will reveal about the latest trends in the watch industry. With many brands hinting at a greater focus on women’s watches in the coming months, we’re excited to see what they have in store. Stay tuned as we bring you updates on our favourites from the watch fair.
Piaget, Sixtie
In 1969, Piaget blurred the lines between jewellery and watchmaking, with many of its creations taking the form of a cuff or a Swinging Sautoir, featuring bold designs. Inspired by fashion, the brand’s trapeze-shaped watches drew influence from Yves Saint Laurent’s iconic trapeze dress and soon became cult favourites. Fast forward nearly 60 years, and Piaget has created a timepiece that is both modern and vintage in spirit. While Piaget’s origins lie in jewellery, that hasn’t stopped them from designing highly desirable watches.
Introducing the Sixtie—an exceptionally elegant timepiece featuring a satin-finished dial adorned with golden hour markers and Roman numerals. A standout detail is the chiselled gadroon bezel, a subtle nod to Piaget’s Andy Warhol watch. The Sixtie is available in four variations: a stainless steel case with an 18K pink gold 4N bezel and bracelet; an 18K pink gold 4N case and bracelet; an 18K pink gold 4N case and bracelet set with 51 diamonds (0.52 ct); and a stainless steel case and bracelet set with 51 diamonds (0.52 ct). Each model is powered by a manufacture Quartz movement.
Chopard, L.U.C Quattro
Chopard is celebrating 25 years of its game-changing Quattro movement with a fresh take on the L.U.C Quattro timepiece. Housed in a refined 39mm ethical 18-carat rose gold case, this new edition carries the remarkable Chopard Quattro technology—a world-first innovation featuring four series-coupled barrels stacked in pairs. This setup allows for an extraordinary nine-day power reserve (a rare feat in watchmaking), ensuring a constant and reliable force to the escapement. In watchmaking, precision is key, and with the movement running at 28,800 vibrations per hour and earning both COSC chronometer certification and the prestigious Poinçon de Genève hallmark—you know that a nod’s given to its craftsmanship and accuracy.
Since its debut in 2000, the L.U.C Quattro’s unique movement, the L.U.C Calibre 98.01-L, has been a cornerstone of Chopard’s haute horlogerie excellence. Now, in its latest evolution—the L.U.C 98.09-L—the power-reserve indicator has been discreetly moved to the movement bridge, resulting in a cleaner, more balanced dial.
Bell & Ross, BR-03 Skeleton
Bell & Ross is celebrating 20 years of its iconic BR-03 collection with a bold new release—the BR-03 Skeleton. Available in three striking versions—Black Ceramic, Grey Steel, and Lum Ceramic—the BR-03 Skeleton is powered by the newly developed BR-CAL.328 movement. The concept behind this skeleton watch is to showcase the intricate mechanics of its 54-hour power reserve movement in full view.
What sets this collection apart is its X-shaped structure, which connects the movement to the case’s four bezel screws. Bell & Ross has also enhanced the luminescence, ensuring that this watch is not just a technical marvel but a visual one too. Our favourite is the alien-like Lum Ceramic version. Its futuristic black ceramic design makes it a fun watch by day, while at night, it transforms into a sci-fi-inspired piece—highlighting the luminescent SLN C3 and a translucent smoked plate.
