Growing success
The first edition of We Love Watches in 2023 had already made an impression. It brought together 700 watch enthusiasts and 48 houses in the highly sought-after Electric Paris, an alternative cultural center in the 10th arrondissement.
For 2024, the organization is moving up a gear with a venue twice as large and a forecast of more than 1000 visitors. It is under the sumptuous glass roof of Samaritan Journey that all these wonderful people will come together, with 75 watch brands exhibiting some of their creations, including exclusives which will be unveiled for the first time.
A promising new edition
For this second edition, We Love Watches has pulled out all the stops by unveiling several exclusive watches born from the collaboration between major watchmaking houses and Swiss Made Watch, the e-commerce site for jewelry and watches considered the best in its category by Capital. Here are some exciting new features that will delight visitors.
Not all the surprises have been revealed, but we do know that among the highlights of the event, a stand designed by Frédérique Constant will offer demonstrations of disassembly and reassembly of watches. A unique opportunity to learn more about the inner workings of watchmaking and to attend a unique show!
