What will be released at Watches & Wonders Geneve 2025? Masamasa Hirota predicts the new releases!
Watches & Wonders Geneve 2025 (hereafter referred to as W&WG) will be held in Geneva, Switzerland from April 1st (Tue) to April 7th (Mon), 2025. Members of the editorial staff of Chronos Japan, a watch magazine, will once again be traveling to the event to cover the event.
Leading this traveling group is watch professor and editor-in-chief Masamasa Hirota. Before his trip, Hirota did a livestream about W&WG on YouTube, and we've included an archive of that in this article. The content mainly covered "This year's new releases, based on recent trends," "New watches from brands that Hirota is personally interested in," and "What to look for in new watches." We're particularly interested in the dial, silicon balance spring, and small-diameter case.
From 7:01 AM on Tuesday, April 1st, webChronos will release the latest news.
This year's W&WG will be held from midnight on April 1, 2025, Swiss Daylight Saving Time. This corresponds to 7:00 AM Japan time. From this point onwards, webChronos will be publishing breaking news articles about new watches, focusing on the brands exhibiting at W&WG.
Also, Hirota's Geneva Diary (http://www.webchronos.net/blog/113426/) is also updated regularly.
We're also running a campaign to coincide with this exciting season in the watch industry. In addition to publishing 2 to 2.5 times more articles than usual, we're also planning some special projects, so stay tuned!
