Shades of green and grey were second to the timeless appeal of gold, the standout colour of Watches and Wonders Geneva 2024.
Watches tell us about the present or the past; the future is generally out of reach, except at a fair like the recently concluded Watches and Wonders Geneva. You might have caught some of our favourites and highlights over the last week, and probably caught up on all the news wherever you get your horological fix. So, what does it all say about the year of watchmaking that is to come? In 2024, the answer is simple: high-value precious metal models.
At IWC, the entire new Portogieser Horizon Blue variant is only in white gold while the new Duometre watches at Jaeger-LeCoultre are exclusively in gold, except the stainless steel Quatieme Lunaire. Needless to say, the Piaget Polo 79 is a big old gold brick, while the majority of Cartier’s 66 novelties this year are in precious metals, and that goes up to 100 percent at Van Cleef & Arpels.
