After a flurry of men’s fashion in Florence and Milan, it was nice to head up to Geneva to look at the latest advancements in the luxury watch world at the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie fair. At a show where newness and innovation are almost always seen in the development of increasingly intricate complications of the timekeeping variety (sweeping seconds, power reserves, the omnipresent tourbillon), it was a welcome relief to have a shift in focus to aesthetics and appearance to the (gasp!) decorative. I even heard the dirty words of the timekeeping biz, “dress watch,” uttered without shame. Other manufacturers chose to focus on proven classics to help create contemporary heirlooms in the making. After all, a watch can simply be handsome to look at, complicated or not.
