PRIMETIME - Watchmaking in the News - January 2023

Hello and welcome to this first edition of PRIMETIME Watchmaking in the News of 2023. We have plenty of news to share with you on business and products.

With this PRIMETIME you will get the latest important industry news about Rolex, numbers on Swiss watch exports, the price forecast for gold, and our thoughts on how this could affect the market. Plus, some useful information about major changes in Breitling and Bovet, and, of course, new timepieces, including some exceptional mechanisms to celebrate the Chinese year of the Rabbit.

We also published our typical end-of-the-year Best of the Year Watches, just for the pleasure of the eyes, and a really super cute video showing kids attending a watchmaking workshop here in Geneva.

And finally, we shared the story of Prague’s incredible Astronomical clock, a crazy piece of engineering and science. You can find some more information about it on our website as well.

I just want to say this is a legitimate watch channel. You don’t get countless Rolex videos or mentioning Rolex in the title for click. This man actually covers all watches. We all need to spread the word on this channel and try to get this channel 1 million subscribers.

I am over the buying habit/addiction. Moved on to wall clocks and Grandfather clocks!. Love the channel and just wish I had unlimited money

No mention of the Unicorn at Phillips?

[peterdegelaen]

The clock behind you does not run. (Change battery????)
I know, silly comment :D

[masterwatch]

always so interesting. Can I ask, the Hublot Big Bang seems to have the strap release mechanism on the dial side? is that not a potential problem and possibly make it easy for a thief to steal?
