Breguet has claimed the highest honor at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG), winning the prestigious Aiguille d’Or Grand Prix for the Classique Souscription 2025, a distinction reserved for the single most outstanding timepiece of the year. Marking the maison’s 250th anniversary, the watch pays homage to Abraham-Louis Breguet’s revolutionary Souscription models of the late 18th century while reimagining them for the wrist with poetic restraint. A single blued hand sweeps across a grand feu enamel dial, and turning the watch over reveals a caseback engraved with the founder’s own words, framed by a satin-brushed case middle.

At the 2025 Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève, Audemars Piguet secured a prestigious victory with the Royal Oak Selfwinding Perpetual Calendar taking the Iconic Watch prize. This 41mm timepiece, crafted in a unique 18K sand gold alloy whose warm tones shift with the light, is a study in refined technical balance. Driven by the new Calibre 7138, it consolidates the intricate mechanics of a perpetual calendar into an elegantly slim profile. An innovative tool-free crown system allows effortless adjustment, merging practical ergonomics with the Royal Oak’s unmistakable presence. This win not only celebrates an enduring design but honors a watch that makes haute horology breathtakingly beautiful and surprisingly intuitive to live with.

In a celebration of high horology, Bovet 1822 triumphed at the 2025 Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève with the Récital 30 securing the Men’s Complication prize. This watch distills a complex idea to its purest form, focusing singularly on its inventive world-time mechanism. Large rollers dominate the dial, elegantly displaying all 24 time zones including the rare 30-minute offset for New Delhi with year-round accuracy. A central day/night indicator linked to local time completes the display. By refining the system first introduced in its predecessor, the Récital 30 offers global travelers a remarkably intuitive complication that proves sophistication can be both essential and effortless.

Chopard achieved a double victory at this year’s Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève with the Alpine Eagle 41 SL Cadence 8HF claiming the Sports Watch prize. The model is a masterclass in contemporary sports watch engineering, housed in an ultra-light 41mm ceramicized titanium case. Its pitch-black titanium dial energized by vivid orange accents conceals the high-precision Chronometer-certified Chopard 01.14-C movement. With this win, Chopard demonstrates that a sports watch can be both technically commanding and exceptionally lightweight, delivering a compelling cadence of style, innovation and performance for the active connoisseur.

The Daniel Roth Extra Plat Rose Gold claimed victory in the highly competitive Time Only category at this year’s Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève, a recognition of its restrained yet undeniable elegance. A careful revival of the brand’s foundational 1990s design language, the watch features the signature double-ellipse case in warm 5N rose gold refined to an impressive 7.7mm thickness. The two-tone dial, adorned with hand-executed pinstripe guilloché, is a study in balanced proportion. Powered by the new Calibre DROO2 developed under the guidance of master watchmakers Michel Navas and Enrico Barbasini, the watch honors the traditional codes of haute horlogerie in a form that feels timeless and effortlessly wearable.

Capturing the Petite Aiguille prize at the 2025 Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève, the M.A.D.2 Green by M.A.D. Editions is a mischievous tribute to 1990s club culture. Conceived by Eric Giroud, designer and longtime MB&amp;F collaborator, the watch refuses convention. Its dial is a miniature audiovisual playground: central subdials resemble DJ turntables spinning over a vinyl-textured base, while the stroboscopic rotor inspired by the Technics SL-1200 comes to life with every movement of the wrist. The unexpected delight is its bidirectional jumping-hour mechanism displayed through playful guitar-pick-shaped markers, transforming the watch into a wearable burst of Swiss-made attitude and joy.
