Vacheron Constantin
Égérie Moon Phase Spring Blossom
The Égérie Moon Phase Spring Blossom celebrates femininity and the beauty of spring through a pink mother-of-pearl dial paired with a hand-painted calfskin strap. Marking Vacheron Constantin’s first use of miniature painting on a strap, the limited edition of 100 pieces draws inspiration from Haute Couture and decorative arts. The watch is accompanied by two interchangeable straps, pink-gold buckles, and a dedicated pouch, reinforcing the Maison’s focus on both artistry and versatility.
Overseas Self-Winding Ultra-Thin
Vacheron Constantin introduces the Overseas Self-Winding Ultra-Thin in a 39.5mm platinum case, the first platinum model within the Overseas collection. With a slim 7.35mm profile, it becomes the thinnest design in the line. A salmon lacquered sunburst dial adds warmth and sophistication, while the movement meets Haute Horlogerie standards and bears the Hallmark of Geneva. Limited to 255 individually numbered pieces, the model is available exclusively through Vacheron Constantin boutiques.
Bvlgari
Bvlgari unveiled The Art of Shape, a bold vision of contemporary watchmaking. From new interpretations of the iconic Serpenti to the continued evolution of Octo Finissimo, the Maison explores form, material and technical mastery, reaffirming its identity as both jeweller and watchmaker.
Serpenti Tubogas Studs
A contemporary reinterpretation of one of Bvlgari’s most recognisable icons, the Serpenti Tubogas Studs capsule introduces a graphic interplay of gold and steel, accented by diamonds and hardstone dials. Sculptural and modern, the collection transforms the Serpenti into a striking expression of contemporary design.
Serpenti Aeterna
Continuing the evolution of the Serpenti, Aeterna presents a more radical and fluid interpretation. Vibrant gemstone compositions and sculptural lines bring movement and energy to the iconic silhouette, reinforcing its status as one of Bvlgari’s most enduring creations.
Octo Finissimo
The Octo Finissimo enters a new chapter with the introduction of the 37mm model, featuring refined proportions and a newly developed ultra-thin automatic calibre with a 72-hour power reserve. Alongside it, the Octo Finissimo Ultra Tourbillon Platinum pushes technical boundaries as the world’s thinnest flying tourbillon, released in a limited edition of just ten pieces.
Van Cleef & Arpels
Midnight Jour Nuit Phase de Lune
Expanding the Jour Nuit collection, Van Cleef & Arpels introduces a new moon-inspired creation featuring dual complications. The watch combines the Maison’s signature day-and-night animation with an astronomical moon-phase display, bringing celestial movement to life through a refined and poetic dial.
Ludo Secret
Inspired by the iconic Ludo bracelet first created in 1934, the Ludo Secret watches reinterpret one of the Maison’s signature designs. With a belt-like silhouette and trompe l’oeil detailing, the collection reflects Van Cleef & Arpels’ enduring connection to couture and jewellery craftsmanship.
Perlée
The Perlée collection evolves with a new watch defined by its signature golden bead motif. Crafted in white gold, the shimmering circular design merges jewellery aesthetics with watchmaking expertise, offering a contemporary and refined expression of time.
Lady Rencontre Céleste & Lady Retrouvailles Célestes
Continuing the Maison’s Poetry of Time, these Extraordinary Dials tell the romantic story of Vega and Altair, legendary celestial lovers. Through artistic crafts and intricate detailing, the watches capture both their longing and reunion, reinforcing Van Cleef & Arpels’ poetic and emotional approach to watchmaking.
Piaget
Swinging Pebbles
Piaget reimagines its iconic Swinging Sautoirs with the new Swinging Pebbles collection, crafted from ornamental stones including tiger’s eye, verdite and pietersite. Each pendant watch is carved from a single stone slice, hollowed to house a Manufacture movement, and suspended from a twisted gold chain. Sculptural and fluid, the designs reflect Piaget’s heritage in goldsmithing while offering a modern interpretation of jewellery in motion.
Saga of Ornamental Stones
Continuing its Art of Colour story, Piaget introduces new timepieces featuring striking ornamental stones across key collections. Shades of blue, a signature of the Maison, appear across the Sixties, Piaget Polo 36mm, and Andy Warhol watches, while warm bull’s eye stone dials offer a more graphic alternative. A High Jewellery Sixties reinterprets the 1970s cuff watch with opal, adding a vibrant, contemporary dimension to the iconic silhouette.
The Maison also pushes technical boundaries with the Altiplano Ultimate Concept Tourbillon, integrating ornamental stone into its record-breaking 2mm profile. Alongside this, the Maison revisits heritage designs, including the 1972 Kimono pocket watch, which is reimagined as the Swinging Pebbles necklace, blending historical references with contemporary creativity.
Hermès
Arceau Samarcande
Inspired by Hermès’ equestrian roots, the Arceau Samarcande brings the horse to the forefront of its design. Featuring a Saint Louis crystal dial openworked to form a horse’s head, the watch reveals the new H1927 skeletonised self-winding movement beneath. Housed in a 38mm white- or rose-gold case, the timepiece also incorporates a minute repeater complication, blending technical sophistication with artistic expression. Finished with straps in complementary tones, the Arceau Samarcande offers a refined and imaginative interpretation of Hermès watchmaking.
Slim d’Hermès Squelette Lune
The Slim d’Hermès Squelette Lune explores the poetry of lunar timekeeping. Powered by the H1953 movement, the watch tracks the lunar cycle across both Northern and Southern hemispheres, presented through a skeletonised dial. Available in two new colourways, vert d’eau and blue, the design balances technical precision with Hermès’ signature sense of elegance and creativity.
A Lange & Söhne
Saxonia Annual Calendar
The new Saxonia Annual Calendar introduces a self-winding movement within a refined, compact case available in white and pink gold. Designed for everyday elegance, the dial presents the time, day, and month with exceptional clarity, complemented by a moon phase display set against a deep blue sky with 428 stars. Engineered for precision, the moon phase requires correction only once every 122.6 years, while the annual calendar automatically adjusts for months with 30 and 31 days, requiring manual adjustment just once a year.
Lange 1 Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar “Lumen”
The Lange 1 Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar “Lumen” brings together two grand complications within the Maison’s signature design. Featuring a tourbillon with stop-seconds and a perpetual calendar with instantaneously switching displays, the watch also introduces luminous elements that keep all indications visible in the dark. Powered by the newly developed calibre L225.1, the intricate movement can be admired through both the dial and caseback, reinforcing A. Lange & Söhne’s mastery of technical innovation and refined aesthetics.
Chopard
L’Heure du Diamant
Chopard expands its L’Heure du Diamant collection with four new models crafted in 18-carat ethical white gold. A standout design features an iridescent mother-of-pearl dial framed by an asymmetrical floral diamond bezel and signature bark bracelet, powered by one of the smallest hand-wound movements, the Chopard 10.01 C. Two additional models introduce deep black onyx dials in round and cushion shapes, accented with diamond-set indexes and powered by the self-winding 09.01 C calibre. Completing the series, a cushion-shaped piece inspired by a 1960s family design is paired with a fluted gold bracelet and a pear-shaped diamond bezel, blending heritage with contemporary elegance.
L.U.C Quattro Spirit 25 Straw Marquetry Edition
Chopard also introduces two limited edition L.U.C Quattro Spirit 25 timepieces, each produced in editions of eight pieces. Showcasing the Maison’s mastery of artistic crafts, the watches feature intricate straw marquetry dials crafted from carefully selected French rye straw. One model appears in ethical rose gold with a deep blue dial, while the second, in ethical yellow gold, highlights natural straw tones. Powered by a jumping hour movement with an eight-day power reserve, the timepieces balance technical sophistication with decorative craftsmanship, celebrating Chopard’s heritage and attention to detail.
Jaeger-LeCoultre
Reverso Tribute Enamel – Hokusai Waterfalls Series
Jaeger-LeCoultre introduces four new Reverso Tribute Enamel models, each limited to just 10 pieces. The dials feature intricate guilloché and enamel work, while the casebacks are adorned with miniature enamel paintings inspired by Hokusai’s iconic waterfall compositions. The new releases depict the final four scenes from the series: Rōben Waterfall at Ōyama, Kiyotaki Kannon Waterfall, Yōrō Waterfall and The Falls at Aoigaoka.
Each timepiece is hand-decorated by artisans from Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Métiers Rares atelier, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail.
