Aspen Watch Week Returns for Its Third Year
Watch Week Aspen returns for its third edition, running from August 13 to August 16, offering a free, public weekend packed with industry talks, watch showcases, and outdoor activities. The event kicks off with cocktails at the Gerald Charles Lounge, followed by previews of Glashütte Original’s latest innovations, a rare‑watch presentation by M.S. Rau, and a panel on the pre‑owned market in partnership with SYYNCH. A new 3K run led by NORQAIN’s U.S. Brand President adds a fitness element, after which attendees can explore sessions on Hermès’ Le Temps Suspendu complication, sample NORQAIN ice cream, and hear about the heritage of the Omega Speedmaster and A. Lange Söhne’s “Lumen” collection. The Saturday program shifts to tennis, pickleball, and a VintageFest where collectors display their pieces for prize categories, while brands such as IWC Schaffhausen, Omega, A. Lange Söhne, and Moritz Grossmann present talks. Sunday concludes with a presentation by Arnold & Son and a curated selection of watches from Patek Philippe, Cartier, Tiffany, Ulysse Nardin, and others.
