Watches

The sport watch is a popular category of watches on the market, combining practical functions with high-end materials, and the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak is still the ultimate luxury sport watch, with many brands pushing the bounds of both elements in their designs.

The watch industry is evolving with trends such as bold use of color, accessible sizing, special edition timepieces, sustainability and transparency, revivals and reissues, and the rise of independents, while new trends such as the return of the dress watch, dials reigning supreme, and ditching round for square or other shapes are emerging in 2024.
