The Fondation De La Haute Horlogerie (FHH) On 2019’s Watch Trends

The Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie noted that this was reflected in the pieces observed at SIHH 2019, with a slightly less conservative approach to design that was perhaps the presiding theme of the past two years Watches employing the use of newfangled materials have always been slow to win over the buying public, but as these materials become more advanced, and the consumer confidence stabilizes in this area, we could well see many more hard-and-fast traditionalists shelving steel for more modern alternatives While sales of men's watches have declined, womens' watch sales have actually been increasing in the background.

Perhaps one of the reasons for this, separate from the societal progression that has given more women the means to access high-end horology, is the fact that the industry has recently put a lot more effort into designing watches specifically for women Two stunning examples of haute Horlogerie for women are the Chopard L.U.C XP Esprit de Fleurier Peony watch, and the Bovet Récital 23 Moon Phase watch Perhaps one of the biggest trends that continues to establish itself in 2019 is the rise of the independent brand.
