La Journée Internationale de l'Horlogerie officiellement lancée!
World Watch Day is officially launched!
A milestone for watchmaking culture: During the Geneva Watch Days, we officially launched the World Watch Day which will take place each year on October 10.
This initiative is born from collaboration and passion. For several years, we have been working closely with foundations and associations dedicated to promoting watchmaking culture.
Together, we dreamed of creating a day that would celebrate, preserve, and share the magic of watchmaking with the entire world.
◉ The mission of the World Watch Day
- Raise global awareness for the artistry of watchmaking
- Preserve and promote knowledge, craftsmanship, and cultural heritage
- Share our passion openly, with everyone, everywhere
- Complement UNESCO recognition of watchmaking as a mechanical art
◉ Partners who have joined forces to make this possible:
- Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève - GPHG
- Hantang Culture
- The Watch Library
- Europa Star
- ARC HORLOGER - Patrimoine immatériel de l'humanité
- Horological Society of New York
- HOROPEDIA Foundation
- FHH - Fondation Haute Horlogerie
- Le Figaro
- 289 Consulting
- Johann Terrettaz
- Hideo Kubota

This is just the beginning. The first World Watch Day will be a celebration of everything we stand for a gift to the generations to come.
