Watches and Wonders Geneva is the world’s premier horology event, and each year, dozens of brands gather in Switzerland to debut their latest novelties. Featuring 66 participating exhibitors, Watches and Wonders 2026 is set to take place from April 14-20 at Palexpo in Geneva, and many of the biggest names in the watch industry will launch their most important releases of the year. Beyond just representing new options for luxury watch<\/a> collectors, the timepieces presented at the show can often have a significant impact on the secondary market, and below are some of our predictions for Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patek Philippe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Patek<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this year, the Patek Philippe<\/a> website exhibited what many collectors are interpreting as an unintentional “leak” of the Swiss brand’s upcoming releases for Watches and Wonders 2026. Several new models appeared as placeholders without images on the brand’s official website, although Patek Philippe has since corrected this “leak” and removed them without any official statement to address the matter. While nothing is confirmed at this point in time, many collectors believe this technical glitch directly reflects what Patek Philippe has planned for Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the possible “leaked” models are three new platinum versions of the Patek Philippe Perpetual Calendar ref. 5270. At the present time, this model is only available in solid rose gold, and it is fitted with a black dial and matching gold bracelet (ref. 5270\/1R-001). However, this may change at Watches and Wonders 2026, as the three new versions are all crafted from platinum, and based on their reference numbers, the trio will be equipped with straps, rather than matching platinum bracelets. The three models are the ref. 5270P-015, ref. 5270P-016, and ref. 5270P-017, and each one will be fitted with a different dial, although no information exists about the specific dial colors that might be used for the new trio of platinum perpetual calendar watches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also part of the possible Patek Philippe leak for Watches and Wonders 2026 is a new platinum version of the brand\u2019s In-Line Perpetual Calendar (ref. 5236P-011). As mentioned in our Patek Philippe buying guide<\/a>, the brand only offers the In-Line Perpetual Calendar in platinum (at least currently), and the model is available with either a blue dial (ref. 5236P-001) or salmon-colored dial (ref. 5236P-010). Based on the leaked reference number for the new version, the model should have a different color dial (plus a different strap), but it will otherwise be the same fundamental watch as the two existing models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Audemars Piguet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Audemars<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Audemars Piguet will be exhibiting at Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026, and this marks the first time that the brand has participated in a major horology show since SIHH 2019. Many collectors are expecting big things from Audemars Piguet<\/a> this year; however, just last month in February, the Swiss brand unveiled quite a few new releases. Rather than completely reinventing the wheel for Watches and Wonders 2026, some collectors expect AP to build upon its recent releases with an expansion of the Neo Frame series and a smaller version of the Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Audemars Piguet Neo Frame Jumping Hour was among the brand\u2019s novelties that debuted last month in February, and while the watch itself is just a single model, Audemars Piguet classifies the Neo Frame as its own distinct collection. Given that the vast majority of AP watches are either round or octagonal, the rectangular case of the Neo Frame represents a fresh silhouette for the brand, and I could easily see AP expanding the Neo Frame to include other models at Watches & Wonders 2026. One possibility is that Audemars Piguet will create alternate versions of the Neo Frame Jumping Hour with different dials and case materials, but I can also see the brand pairing the Neo Frame\u2019s rectangular case with a more traditional analog display. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another popular Audemars Piguet prediction for Watches and Wonders 2026 is a smaller version of the Royal Oak Offshore<\/a> Chronograph. Just last month, AP unveiled a new in-house movement for the Royal Oak Chronograph 38mm, and many collectors think that the brand will use this same caliber to create a smaller version of the Offshore Chronograph. Audemars Piguet specifically created the Royal Oak Offshore to be a larger and more modern version of the classic Audemars Piguet Royal Oak<\/a>, but it\u2019s undeniable that the bold 42mm and 43mm sizing of the chronograph models make them too large for some people\u2019s wrists, and a smaller version could serve as the perfect alternative.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cartier Watches<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Cartier<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to Cartier watches<\/a>, the Tank and Santos are the brand’s two most famous watch collections, and both of them have received quite a few new models over the course of the last few years. Realistically speaking, you can pretty much guarantee that Cartier will unveil at least some new Cartier Tank<\/a> or Santos models at Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026, but the Pasha collection has been somewhat neglected in recent years, and I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if additional Pasha models were added to the catalog for 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The history of the Pasha de Cartier dates back to the early 1930s, when the Pasha of Marrakesh commissioned a piece-unique sports watch from Louis Cartier. However, the commercially available Cartier Pasha<\/a> was first released in 1985, and it was designed by G\u00e9rald Genta, who also created the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and Patek Philippe Nautilus (among numerous other famous watches). The Pasha de Cartier has a rich history and an instantly recognizable appearance, but it has somewhat fallen off the radar in recent years. As of March 2026, there are only two Pasha models currently available on Cartier\u2019s website, and both of them feature solid rose gold cases that are paired with leather straps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When most people think of Cartier watches, it is typically a rectangular or oval-shaped case that first comes to mind, and this is part of the reason why the Pasha often gets overlooked. However, the Pasha de Cartier represents an important chapter in the brand\u2019s history, and I don’t foresee Cartier entirely discontinuing one of G\u00e9rald Genta\u2019s most famous designs. Given that the entire Pasha collection has been reduced to just two rose gold watches, many collectors are predicting that Cartier will unveil a batch of new Pasha models this year in Geneva at Watches and Wonders 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tudor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Tudor<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For the last few years, collectors have been begging Tudor watches<\/a> to expand upon the Pelagos 39<\/a>, but 2026 might just be the year that it actually happens. Tudor originally launched the Pelagos 39 in August 2022, and while other Pelagos models have since joined the collection, the Pelagos 39 remains the only one that is smaller than 42mm. Given that the standard Tudor Pelagos<\/a> is offered in either blue or black colorways (plus the left-handed Pelagos LHD), a blue version of the Tudor Pelagos 39 would be a natural addition to the brand\u2019s catalog, and there\u2019s a decent chance that this frequently requested model may finally debut this year at Watches and Wonders 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Tudor does choose to release a blue version of the Pelagos 39, there\u2019s a strong possibility that it won\u2019t just be a 39mm version of the full-size blue Pelagos. Unlike the black 42mm Pelagos that features a matte black dial and bezel inset, the current Pelagos 39 has a black sunburst dial with a radially brushed ceramic bezel that makes it feel slightly more refined than its full-size sibling. Should Tudor create a blue version of the Pelagos 39, there\u2019s a strong chance that the model will incorporate the same updates as its black sibling, and many enthusiasts anticipate that the model will be fitted with a blue sunburst dial and a matching blue ceramic insert. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A blue version of the Pelagos 39 is an obvious addition to Tudor\u2019s catalog, but another popular request from collectors is a GMT-equipped version of the standard Pelagos. Technically speaking, Tudor already offers a Pelagos GMT in the form of the Pelagos FXD GMT, but countless people have been asking Tudor to make a GMT version of the original Pelagos, and the brand already has its own GMT movements that could be used to power the model. Compared to a blue version of the Pelagos 39, a GMT-equipped Pelagos feels like somewhat of a long-shot, but both rank among the most popular Tudor predictions for Watches and Wonders 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Panerai<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Panerai<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Panerai\u2019s entire modern catalog is derived from the underlying designs of two models (the Panerai Radiomir<\/a> and the Panerai Luminor<\/a>), so it\u2019s fairly safe to assume that whatever the brand unveils in Geneva at Watches and Wonders 2026 will be based on one of these two silhouettes. That said, Panerai watches typically fall into one of two thematic categories, and the vast majority of the brand\u2019s models are either vintage-inspired heritage pieces or explicitly modern renditions of Panerai\u2019s signature aesthetic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to what novelties Panerai<\/a> might release at Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026, my personal guess would be that Panerai will continue to play into both sides of its identity by releasing vintage-inspired models alongside thoroughly modern executions of either the Radiomir or Luminor. This is an approach that we have seen from Panerai in previous years, and if you look at the brand\u2019s current-production catalog, the vast majority of its watches gravitate towards one of these two aesthetic concepts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Assuming Panerai decides to embrace the duality of its catalog with its new releases for Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026, the retro-themed models will likely be simple time-only pieces with manual-wind movements that draw from the aesthetic of vintage Panerai watches. Meanwhile, the modern-themed releases could either be dedicated to Panerai\u2019s contemporary partnerships, such as the Navy SEALs or Luna Rossa sailing team, or they could place an emphasis on their internal mechanics by offering heavy-hitter complications like a tourbillon or perpetual calendar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oris<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Oris<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Over the course of the last several years, Oris<\/a> has been rolling out updated generations of its core-collection models. In 2024, the brand updated the Oris Divers Sixty-Five<\/a> to create the Divers Date, and it also released a new generation of its flagship Aquis collection. The following year at Watches and Wonders 2025, Oris introduced a new generation of the Big Crown Pointer Date, and to kick off 2026, the brand unveiled an updated version of the Oris ProPilot<\/a>. With that in mind, the new generation of the ProPilot was exclusively introduced in a simple time-and-date format, and some collectors anticipate that Oris will expand the updated ProPilot series at Watches and Wonders 2026 to include additional sizes and complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the present time, the new-generation Oris ProPilot Date is exclusively available in a 41mm time-and-date configuration, and with the exception of the ProPilot Desert Edition that features a carbon fiber case, the rest of the updated ProPilot watches are all crafted from stainless steel. Given that the previous ProPilot series included both chronograph and day\/date models, I could easily see Oris unveiling updated versions of these configurations at Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026, alongside either smaller or larger iterations of the recently launched ProPilot Date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the new ProPilot models, some enthusiasts believe that Oris will release new Oris Divers watches<\/a> that are based on the updated generation that first debuted in 2024. We’ve written about these watches in our Oris Divers watch review<\/a> if you’d like to do a deep dive into the collection. While the original Divers Sixty-Five exists in a variety of sizes and includes both time-only and date-displaying configurations, the updated Divers models all embrace a 39mm time-and-date format, with the one exception being the Oris x Redbar Limited Edition II. Consequently, many collectors are predicting that Oris will introduce a smaller version of the Divers Date at Watches and Wonders 2026, and I also wouldn’t be surprised if the brand added some time-only models to the updated Divers collection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
