It’s time again for Madison Avenue Watch Week. A much-anticipated, week-long event, the 8th Annual Madison Avenue Watch Week promises to be the ultimate premiere experience for watch cognoscenti and connoisseurs. From May 14–19, a prestigious roster of world-class retail brands will unveil their watches recently shown at Baselworld 2018 and the 28th Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie.

Be the first to inspect and be inspired by the new 2018 timepiece collections from Hublot, A. Lange & Söhne, and Chopard expressly on view during Watch Week. Schedule a navigational tour of your own or of a new Apple Watch – a first time participant in Watch Week. Take a hands-on master class with a watchmaker at Jaeger-LeCoultre. Sip a cocktail and discover the Special Edition Lo Scienziato-Luminor 1950 Tourbillon at Officine Panerai. Master watchmakers will also be available at A. Lange & Söhne and Montblanc. Meet the Leather Artisan at Vacheron Constantin and experience the craftsmanship of custom leather straps from Manufacture Jean Rousseau.

Many of the showings and watch exhibitions are open to the public during regular store hours. Others are invitation only, by appointment, or at after-hours receptions. To see the offerings and request an invitation, please visit the official Madison Watch Week site.
