London Watch Week Celebrates Fine Watchmaking

London Watch Week is set to become an annual celebration of fine watchmaking, bringing together prestigious watch brands, independent watchmakers, retailers, collectors, and enthusiasts.

Taking place between the 17th and 21st of June, the event showcases horological excellence through exhibitions, educational workshops, and exclusive events throughout London. London Watch Week is set to solidify London as a key player in the global watch market. A week-long celebration of all things horological in the heart of London, organised and delivered by a team of industry veterans.

Adding to the excitement of London Watch Week 2025, prestigious auction house Bonhams will present its anticipated Fine Watches sale on June 19. The curated live sale will feature a plethora of timepieces showcasing best-in-class designs across the decades, including coveted names such as Audemars Piguet, Breguet, Cartier, Patek Philippe, Rolex, and Vacheron Constantin.

“Bonhams is delighted to partner with London Watch Week, set to mark London as a key player in the global watch arena. The anticipated new date on the horology calendar is a unique platform to share experiences and knowledge of the horology world with the wider community. It is the brainchild of Justin Hast, Tom Exton and Lucy Cheesewright, all friends of Bonhams and respected tastemakers within the watch community. Bonhams will kick off London Watch Week with a series of events including a panel talk between myself and Justin Hast, discussing a curated selection of timepieces from the Fine Watches sale, that will appeal to watch enthusiasts all over the world, who will appreciate the horological craftsmanship and mastery they represent.”
