Watches and Wonders 2026: Rolex’s new Daytona, Patek Philippe’s anniversary Nautilus and more 17.04.2026

The Straits Times

Watches and Wonders 2026, held in Geneva's Palexpo convention centre from April 14, marks the luxury watch industry's most significant global showcase with a record 66 exhibiting brands. Despite an anticipated 60,000 visitors, the event navigates a more cautious market influenced by slowing demand in China, rising gold prices, and geopolitical instability, prompting brands to focus on anniversary editions, technical innovations, and striking designs. Key highlights include Rolex's new platinum and steel Cosmograph Daytona with an enamel dial, Patek Philippe's ultra-thin Nautilus 50th-anniversary collection in platinum and white gold, and A. Lange & Sohne's limited-edition Lumen Perpetual Calendar with a luminous semi-transparent dial. Other notable introductions feature Tag Heuer's technical Monaco Evergraph, Hublot's refreshed Big Bang Reloaded chronographs, Zenith's G.F.J. in tantalum and gold, Chopard's L.U.C. 1860 Chronometre with a blue guilloche dial, Jaeger-LeCoultre's Master Control Chronometre collection tested under new HPG standards, Ulysse Nardin's innovative Super Freak, and Tudor's revival of the Monarch model.
