WATCHPRO

WatchPro is Britain’s leading watch title, providing daily digest for owners, connoisseurs, enthusiasts, operators and decision makers in the watch industry globally. WatchPro Live is WatchPro’s events arm and was launched in 2021.

WATCHPRO SALON

WATCHPRO Salon will be the highlight of the pre-Christmas show season with close to forty watch brands confirming their participation.

Blockbuster luxury brands like Grand Seiko will present alongside independent watchmakers ranging from artisan rare watch producers such as Laurent Ferrier, Kari Voutilainen, Charles Girardier, Speake-Marin, Cyrus, Schofield, Zeitwinkel and Czapek along with larger indies such as Oris, DOXA and Junghans.

“It is fascinating how WATCHPRO Salon is reflecting broader trends in the market. Consumers are looking for something different to add to their collections, but they find it hard to see anything new in this country because retailers are narrowing their focus on a shrinking number of brands,” suggests WATCHPRO co-founder and editor Rob Corder.

“People have spent the past two years learning more about the wider world of watchmaking. They have discovered phenomenal watchmaking online and are dying to see these timekeepers up close. Where better than in the ultra-luxurious surroundings of The Londoner for a show like WATCHPRO Salon to bring these enthusiasts and collectors together to speak directly to the brands?” he adds.

WATCHPRO Salon takes place from November 12 to 13 at The Londoner, a brand new 5-star hotel on London’s Leicester Square.

The event will be a genuine feast for watch lovers, but will also have an exhibit by The Splined Hub, a specialist in restoring vintage Jaguar cars which will bring to life the decades old association between classic cars and vintage timekeepers.

TRIBUS

TRIBUS challenges you to change your perception of time. The brand is carving out its own voice with a refreshing and unconventional style – one unlike few others within the Swiss watch industry.

Co-founder James Ward told WatchPro; “Personality is essential. Across our range, we offer the same levels of engineering as many others in the Swiss watchmaking world - all our core range of watches are COSC certified, with truly Swiss-made cases – thanks to our manufacturer in Lugano, Switzerland. However, at the same time we’re not being afraid to be real people, adding character to the way we talk and present ourselves. Yet our aim is to challenge people’s perceptions of how they see the watchmaking world. We just want to present a traditional industry in our own contemporary way”.

This is a brand bold enough to say what it thinks. By partnering with football clubs, street artists and rock bands, the TRIBUS view is that luxury watchmaking can be presented in a more authentic, natural way. Whether using unorthodox dial colours, chronometer-certified movements or Swiss-made cases, it’s only a matter of time before you add one to your collection.

TRI-01

Simplicity in its finest Swiss form. Paying homage to the elegance of the 40s and 50s dress watches with its modern-retro visuals, the TRI-01 Small Second COSC features a chronometer-certified movement inside its Swiss-made case.

TRI-02

Modern retro visuals meet a bold black and yellow colour scheme.  Equipped with a 24-hour chapter ring and internal bezel, this chronometer allows you to read three timezones simultaneously.

TRI-03

In the TRI-03 Power Reserve GMT COSC, form and function can exist with elegance. The TRI-03 can track multiple timezones simultaneously, with an indicator displaying what remains of its 42-hour power reserve.

TRI-04

A Swiss-made chronometer with dual-time and power reserve complications.  A blackened dial with red or orange detailing ensures this watch will be a bold addition to any wrist.
