CASE IN POINT

From the dress watch to the sports watch, trends are shifting; let's explore some of the predictions for 2025.

Entering a new year is always a good time for reflection, whether it is by looking back at the last 12 months or predicting and planning what is to come. For watches, it is perhaps a little easier than in other industries, such as the fashion world, as watches can take years to produce. Most of the major brands are already planning what we will be seeing in 2030. Having said that, tastes still shift and change, some of which we can see coming, and others that take us completely by surprise.

Everyday Dress Watches

When you keep an eye on what people are wearing at events and on social media, a new trend appears to be emerging for wearing a dress watch as an everyday watch. Where before it may not have been the done-thing to walk around with your high complications or your diamonds in the daytime, no one will bat an eyelid today. So if you are asking yourself whether you would get enough wear out of a De Bethune DB Kind of Grand Complication or a Breguet Classique Tourbillon, don’t give it a second thought.
