Creativity abounds in the women’s watches that took the stage during Watches and Wonders Geneva 2022, from vibrant colours to shaped cases and original complications.
Unveiled at Dubai Watch Week, Urwerk presents a one-of-a-kind piece that reflects the city's countless riches. The UR-210 Dubai is entirely hand-engraved by Florian Güllert and captures the multiple facets of this megacity in its combination of extravagance and unique tradition.
Carrying on its partnership with Alinghi Yacht Racing Team, HYT presents the H1 Alinghi. As high-tech and edgy as its siblings, this 20-piece limited edition puts stealth design and mechanical performance on the wrist.
At the head of Ulysse Nardin since late August, Patrick Pruniaux gave a sneak preview of three of the new watches that will be taking the stage at next year's SIHH, and they are classic, to say the least.

It's amazing what diamonds can do, including shaking up the lines of the coveted Nantucket Très Petit Modèle with a seemingly random sprinkling of stones across its steel case.
Zenith has given its legendary El Primero a successor with the ZO 342 calibre inside the Defy Lab. This new watch has the particularity of a case made from an innovative composite material based on metal foam, and a very high frequency movement with a monolithic silicon oscillator. Zenith promises it is "the world's most precise watch".
It's the biggest buzz in smartwatches: the next-gen Apple Watch, planned for release this autumn, will no longer be tethered to a smartphone. Jean-Claude Biver is also a contender with the TAG Heuer Connected.
