New York—Watch-lovers, mark your calendars.
 
Watch collector show WatchTime New York is slated to return for its seventh edition this fall at Gotham Hall in New York City.
 
The consumer-facing show is slated for Friday, Oct. 21 through Sunday, Oct. 23. 
 
As in 2021, the event will be held over three days to allow for social distancing and to offer more events than in years past. 
 
Among the 26 brands confirmed to exhibit at the show, which is organized by publication WatchTime, are: A. Lange & Söhne, Blancpain, Bremont, Chopard, G-Shock, Grand Seiko, MB&F, Montblanc, and Parmigiani.

WatchTime New York’s goal is to facilitate conversations and experiences for watch lovers. The show was founded in 2015.
 
The show promises new product releases, on-site activations, and live panel discussions. 
 
“The industry has proven to be incredibly resilient over the last few years, defying expectations as interest in wristwatches continues to soar,” said WatchTime Editor-in-Chief Roger Ruegger. 
 
“It’s clear that collectors are more eager than ever to discover and engage with new watch brands and the people behind them, which is precisely what WatchTime New York was established to do.”
 
WatchTime Publisher Sara Orlando added, “As the show continues to grow in size and scope to meet demand, we look forward to announcing new brand exhibitors and activations in the weeks to come.”
 
Attendees can purchase full run-of-show passes or register to attend on a specific day. Panel discussions will be broadcast on WatchTime social media channels.
