The Fondation Haute Horlogerie (FHH) returned to New York for the second US edition of its Watch Summit, welcoming more than 400 industry professionals, journalists, collectors and enthusiasts to NeueHouse Madison Square.
Through four thematic panels and a dedicated A Talk With New York conversation, the Summit explored the ideas and cultural forces shaping contemporary watchmaking. Discussions ranged from the role of education and the enduring appeal of iconic watches to evolving perceptions of value, the influence of the US market and New York’s distinctive watch culture.
Bringing together voices from across watchmaking, media, academia, retail and the creative industries, the event sparked lively exchanges and fresh perspectives. Its success reaffirmed the FHH’s mission to make watchmaking knowledge and culture more widely understood and accessible around the world.
