H. Moser & Cie, Bremont, Raymond Weil, Nomos Glashütte, Gerald Charles, ArtyA, Eberhard & Co. and Norqain are brands to check at Watches and Wonders 2024.
A sampling of the 2024 novelties shown by independent watchmakers H. Moser & Cie, Bremont, Raymond Weil, Nomos Glashütte, Gerald Charles, ArtyA, Eberhard & Co. and Norqain.
In his house were dozens of half-restored wall clocks and even more engine parts, which echoed their childhood making and restoring at the knee of their late father, an ex-Royal Air Force pilot who held a PhD in aeronautical engineering and who was passionate about mechanical timepieces. Bremont is the exclusive watch provider for the British Ministry of Defense and its timepieces have even gone through a live ejection testing program. It has also created custom models for some 400 military units around the world, based on existing designs.
Weil, who passed away aged 87 in 2014, launched the brand in 1976 at the midway point of the quartz crisis, when the Swiss industry was floundering in the face of strong competition from Asia that brought inexpensive electronic watch movements.
For its Watches and Wonders debut, Raymond Weil will be bringing out 11 new references of the Millesime line, priced between 1,575 Swiss francs and 3,500 Swiss francs, ranging from its GPHG winner and 35-mm case with a more feminine slant to a Tri-Compax panda-style chronograph and a chic moonphase with central seconds.
Nomos’ Tangente 38 Date – 175 Years Watchmaking Glashütte in Schlossgrün and Pompadour, two of 31 colorways showcased at the fair.On a wall at its headquarters, the number of prizes Nomos has won is tallied in chalk. They now number more than 160 and range from nearly 40 wins of the Goldene Unruh award handed out by prominent German magazines and 11 Reddot Design Awards to the Challenge Prize won at the 2018 Grand Prix de l’Horlogerie de Genève for its Tangente Update model.
Investors, including the Ziviani family, came on board in 2003 and Genta stayed on as designer in chief until his death in 2011. There’s little conventionalism to be expected from his creations for the ArtyA brand, which he founded in 2009, blending his name with the term art, after having consulted for a range of Swiss luxury watchmakers including Baume & Mercier and Hublot.
Offering mostly numbered and unique designs, ArtyA’s creations are distributed in 30 countries at about 60 high-end watch retailers.Eberhard & Co.’s 137-year history is synced up with the birth and evolution of the Swiss watchmaking industry. In 2001 it debuted the off-kilter Chrono 4 model, which features four chronographs arranged in a row on the dial, setting it apart from other chronograph designs. A second iteration, named Chrono 4 Temerario with a rectangular dial and the four chronographs in a vertical row, was introduced in 2005.
Küffer gathered a group of watch industry professionals and enthusiasts to become involved in his new business, including Ted Schneider, a member of the family once owning the Breitling label, and Swiss ice hockey champion Mark Streit and his father Marc Küffer, a former board member of the Swiss Watch Industry Association for 25 years.
