This month in New York City is an exciting one for the watch community, with October 21- 23 being the unofficial Watch Weekend to know about. Our own WatchTime New York 2022 is taking over Gotham Hall in Midtown that weekend, with over 30 participating brands showcasing their most coveted releases from the year. At the same time, our friends at Worn & Wound and the Windup Watch Shop are bringing their exciting Windup Watch Fair to an all-new venue in NYC for a weekend-long shopping event.
Having previously occupied a place in Chelsea Market, the Windup Watch Fair has outgrown its home and is now moving to a bigger venue located at 135 W 18th Street. The studio-style space is nearly twice the size of the previous venue and includes separate breakout spaces for activities throughout the Fair. This year, Windup NYC features over 60 brands, ranging from some of the largest and most well-established watchmakers in the world to more recently launched brands offering a unique perspective on watchmaking and design.
Windup Watch Fair spans three days, and is free and open to the public, with the approachable and engaging environment having become among the most exciting consumer-centric watch events of the year. Everyone from seasoned collectors to first-time watch buyers are encouraged to engage with brands and get hands-on with the watches they may bring home.
Lead sponsors this year include Christopher Ward, G-SHOCK, Junghans, Oris, and Zodiac. Not only will these sponsors be bringing their latest and greatest watches to both show and sell, they will also be creating an immense amount of original content and experiences. These engagements range from panel discussions and interactive installations, to retrospective product galleries featuring game-changing watches from throughout the years.
