Watches and Wonders 2026, the most anticipated tradeshow in the industry, is officially upon us. We finally know what top brands such as Rolex, Tudor, Patek Philippe, Cartier, and many more have been up to since last year’s releases were announced. What is new, and which luxury watches<\/a> have sadly been discontinued for 2026? Find out everything you need to know about the best 2026 releases in watchmaking below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Audemars Piguet Watch Releases<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After a six-year absence from the Watches and Wonders stage, Audemars Piguet<\/a> makes its return to Geneva with a collection that balances Royal Oak refinement with genuinely new creative territory, including the debut of the Atelier des \u00c9tablisseurs, a new workshop concept that puts individual craftsmanship front and center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neo Frame Jumping Hour<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of the standout new collections of the entire show, the Neo Frame Jumping Hour is inspired by a Pre-Model 1271 from 1929 and houses AP’s first-ever self-winding jumping hour movement, Calibre 7122. The 34.6 x 34mm rose gold case with black PVD-treated sapphire dial is unlike anything currently in the AP catalog, bringing a distinctly 1920s Streamline aesthetic into contemporary haute horlogerie. It is one of the most exciting new departures from AP in years and has already generated significant collector attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar “Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50” Blue Ceramic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Royal
\u00a9 Courtesy of Audemars Piguet<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The most-discussed Audemars Piguet Royal Oak<\/a> of the show, this 41mm blue ceramic perpetual calendar features the iconic Calibre 7138 with its all-in-one crown correction system, no pushers, no tools required. The all-blue ceramic case and bracelet with a Grand Tapisserie blue dial and moonphase display creates a seamless, monochromatic aesthetic that makes the perpetual calendar complications pop with uncommon clarity. If kept wound, this watch won’t require manual calendar correction until the year 2100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Royal Oak Openworked Perpetual Calendar – Calibre 7139<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Royal

The new Calibre 7139, a skeletonized evolution of last year’s award-winning Calibre 7138, debuts simultaneously in a titanium Royal Oak with BMG (Bulk Metallic Glass) bezel and a white-gold-and-black ceramic Audemars Piguet Code 11.59<\/a>, both presenting the calendar mechanics directly through sapphire dials. All calendar adjustments remain in the crown-only system introduced in 2025, making this the most technically intuitive openworked perpetual calendar on the market. Both 41mm references represent the pinnacle of AP’s longstanding dominance of the perpetual calendar complication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Atelier des \u00c9tablisseurs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Audemars

AP’s most conceptually bold announcement at the show is the Atelier des \u00c9tablisseurs, a new workshop structure inspired by 18th-century \u00e9tablissage, where pieces are made in small numbers by named individual contributors rather than through a single industrial process. The debut trio includes the jewelry-first “Galets” with a turquoise and tiger’s-eye stone bracelet, the transformable “Nomade” that can be worn, carried, or placed on a table, and a secret peacock watch whose entire form opens to reveal a hand-engraved enamel bird. Each piece is an object at the intersection of watchmaking and fine art, and signals a meaningful new direction for the Manufacture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patek Philippe Watch Releases<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Patek
Previously discontinued Patek Philippe Nautilus. Details on the newly released model below.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Patek Philippe<\/a> arrives at Watches and Wonders 2026 with arguably the most ambitious collection it has presented in years: 20 new references, four limited-edition Patek Philippe Nautilus anniversary pieces, and a debut wristwatch automaton that marks a genuine first in the Manufacture’s modern history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Celestial Sunrise\/Sunset (Ref. 6105G-001)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Patek’s headliner of 2026 is a genuine technical first: a wristwatch that displays the precise times of sunrise and sunset for Geneva, housed in a 47mm white-gold case with a dial charting the night sky of the northern hemisphere. The movement features a patented system that simultaneously corrects the time and sunrise\/sunset indications whenever the clocks change, five years of development in a single complication. For those who love astronomical watchmaking, this reference sits at the very top of Patek’s 2026 collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘The Crow and the Fox’ Automaton (Ref. 5249R-001)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Inspired by a pocket watch from 1958 currently held in the Patek Philippe Museum and drawing on La Fontaine’s fable, this is the first automaton wristwatch in Patek Philippe’s modern history. Set in a rose-gold case with a rich brown opaline dial, the watch displays hours and minutes on demand while animating a scene from the fable. Collectors have been dreaming of a Patek wristwatch automaton for decades, the brand’s 2026 offering does not disappoint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cubitus Perpetual Calendar (Ref. 5840P-001)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The angular Cubitus collection receives its first grand complication: a perpetual calendar in a large platinum case with an open-worked blue dial that uses the collection’s characteristic horizontal pierced strips. The Patek Philippe Cubitus Perpetual Calendar ref. 5840P<\/a> includes a skeletonized movement that is visible through the dial, making the mechanics themselves a central design feature rather than something hidden beneath. It is a bold, contemporary take on one of Patek’s most revered complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nautilus 50th Anniversary (Refs. 5810\/1G-001, 5810G-001, 5610\/1P-001, and 958G-001)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Four limited-edition pieces celebrate the Patek Philippe Nautilus<\/a> turning 50, including two large-format white-gold models, one on a metal bracelet, one on a fabric-style strap, and a platinum version on a platinum bracelet. All three wristwatch references are powered by an ultra-thin movement that itself dates back to 1977, tying the anniversary pieces directly to the collection’s origins. Rounding out the quartet is a Nautilus desk clock in white gold, a surprisingly charming nod to the collection’s half-century of relevance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minute Repeater Calatrava (Ref. 7047G-001)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Patek Philippe pairs a white-gold case with a navy-blue dial and an embossed carbon motif for a minute repeater that is also one of the thinnest the Manufacture has ever produced. The self-winding movement keeps the profile remarkably slim, making this one of the most wearable repeaters in the current collection. For Patek Philippe Calatrava<\/a> collectors focused on acoustic complications, this reference should be at the top of the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breitling Watch Releases<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While Breitling<\/a> is not an official exhibitor at the Watches and Wonders fair, the brand has strategically timed its biggest 2026 releases to coincide with the show, a strategy that continues to generate significant coverage alongside the Geneva exhibitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Navitimer B19 Perpetual Calendar Chronograph<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Navitimer
\u00a9 Courtesy of Breitling<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Breitling makes a bold claim at the 2026 show: the new Navitimer Perpetual Calendar Chronograph is the only series-produced watch in the world to combine a perpetual calendar with a chronograph. Available in a rose-gold case with a champagne dial or a steel-and-platinum case with a space-grey dial, both Breitling Navitimer<\/a> references feature five perpetual calendar complications that all change automatically at midnight, with each sub-dial framed by a raised metal ring for depth and clarity. It is a landmark release for a brand that has long been associated with aviation complications, now firmly staking its claim in high complication territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Navitimer B01 Titanium – Aston Martin Formula One\u2122 Edition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Navitimer
\u00a9 Courtesy of Breitling<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

2026 marks Breitling’s return to Formula 1 as the official watch partner of the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One\u2122 Team, and the Manufacture has commemorated the partnership with the very first titanium-cased Navitimer. The lightweight case is paired with a classic slide rule bezel and the famous AOPA wings, while the partnership branding adds an unmistakable motorsport identity to one of watchmaking’s most iconic pilot references. The Aston Martin connection is expected to span three to five years, giving this first edition significant long-term collectibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 Tribute to Concorde<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Navitimer
\u00a9 Courtesy of Breitling<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Marking the 50th anniversary of the Concorde supersonic passenger jet’s first commercial flight, this limited-edition Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 draws direct design inspiration from the era of supersonic aviation. The balanced perpetual calendar layout, generous case proportions, and vintage-inspired execution make this particular Breitling Navitimer B01<\/a> one of the most complete Navitimer tributes Breitling has produced. For collectors interested in aviation history and mechanical watches, this is one of 2026’s most meaningful limited editions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tudor Watch Releases<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Tudor
Previously discontinued Tudor Black Bay. Details on the newly released model below.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Tudor celebrates its centennial in 2026 with an appropriately wide-ranging collection, touching nearly every corner of the catalog with the launch of the all-new Monarch, meaningful updates to the Black Bay family, and a refreshed Royal Oak lineup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tudor Monarch<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The headline piece of Tudor’s 100th anniversary is the Tudor Monarch<\/a>, an entirely new model featuring a 39mm faceted barrel-shaped case integrated into a two-link bracelet with Tudor’s T-fit clasp. The dark champagne brushed dial sports a California-style layout, Roman numerals at the top, Arabic numerals at the bottom, which Tudor describes as “error-proof” and which marks the first time this design has appeared in the modern Tudor catalog. Powering it is a 65-hour Master Chronometer manufacture calibre, priced at $5,875 USD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black Bay Ceramic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tudor’s Black Bay Ceramic gains a fully matched ceramic bracelet for the first time, creating an all-black aesthetic from case to clasp, including black luminous fillings on the hands and indices for complete visual consistency. The butterfly clasp on the new bracelet is a departure from the T-fit found elsewhere in the lineup, and the 70-hour power reserve from the Master Chronometer Calibre MT5602-U remains class-leading for the category. At $7,725 USD, it remains one of the most compelling black ceramic dive watches at any price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black Bay 58 Master Chronometer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tudor’s most beloved diver receives the updates collectors have been requesting for years: the Black Bay 58<\/a> now houses a Master Chronometer manufacture calibre and is available on a five-link bracelet, a three-link rivet bracelet, or rubber strap, all with T-fit clasps. The new movement trims 0.2mm from the case thickness, bringing it to 11.7mm, a notable improvement on a watch already praised for its wearability. This is the Black Bay 58 in its most refined form to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black Bay 54 Blue<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tudor’s second-ever Black Bay 54 configuration arrives in a striking sunray-brushed blue dial with a matching blue aluminum bezel, a deliberate contrast to the matte finish used on the Black Bay 58 blue. Available on either a rubber strap or a three-link rivet bracelet, each with a T-fit clasp, the watch retains the compact 37mm case and 70-hour power reserve of the original. At $4,475 USD, it’s one of the most accessible new releases of the entire show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tudor Royal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Tudor Royal is refreshed across the entire size range, 30mm, 36mm, and 40mm, with new in-house MT calibres, updated end links, new dial colors including black, blue, ivory, salmon, burgundy, and mother-of-pearl, and availability in both steel and two-tone steel-and-yellow-gold. The 40mm full day-date configuration in particular elevates the Royal from a side note to a genuine contender in the integrated-bracelet space. This is the most complete overhaul the Royal has received since its introduction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cartier Watch Releases<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cartier reaffirms its title as the “Watchmaker of Shapes” at Watches and Wonders 2026, with a collection spanning a long-awaited revival, new expressions of beloved silhouettes, and the most jewel-forward release the Maison has produced in years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cartier Roadster Return<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Cartier
\u00a9 Courtesy of Cartier<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After more than a decade away from the catalog, the Roadster makes its triumphant return in both medium and large sizes across steel, two-tone steel-and-gold, and full gold configurations, seven references in total at the initial launch. The iconic integrated crown, which morphs into a date magnifier on the sapphire crystal, remains the watch’s defining detail; the proportions have been sharpened and the bracelet updated with shorter links for a more contemporary feel. This is one of the most anticipated revivals of the year, and Cartier<\/a> collectors who missed the original will not be disappointed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Santos-Dumont with Gilded Obsidian Dial<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Santos-Dumont
\u00a9 Courtesy of Cartier<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cartier gives the Santos-Dumont one of its most stunning dials in recent memory: a gilded obsidian stone from Mexico, just 0.3mm thick, whose iridescent reflections come from ancient air bubbles trapped within the volcanic material. The new yellow gold bracelet pairs perfectly with the stone dial, featuring ultra-slim 1.15mm links across 394 individually machined and finished elements inspired by the Maison’s original 1920s made-to-measure bracelets. It’s quintessential Cartier, technically daring, visually breathtaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tortue Collection<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Cartier
\u00a9 Courtesy of Cartier<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Tortue, first produced in 1912, is reborn for 2026 with a slightly more rounded, more generous profile than previous iterations and an embossed relief dial replacing the traditional guilloch\u00e9. Eight versions span small and mini sizes in yellow, white, and rose gold with and without diamonds, a baguette-cut diamond platinum large model, and two exceptional Panth\u00e8re M\u00e9tiers d’Art Tortue watches in champlev\u00e9 enamel, each limited to 100 pieces. The full Tortue line-up cements Cartier’s commitment to shaped watchmaking unlike any other brand on the planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baignoire Clou de Paris<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Cartier
\u00a9 Courtesy of Cartier<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Cartier Baignoire<\/a> receives an all-over Clou de Paris motif for 2026, the hand-polished pyramid hobnail pattern applied continuously across the dial, case, and bracelet in monochrome yellow gold for striking geometric continuity. A second version adds 100 brilliant-cut snow-set diamonds to the dial and 171 to the case and bracelet, turning the watch into a piece of jewelry as much as a timepiece. The proportions have been subtly adjusted to 24.6 x 19.3mm to accommodate the new finish seamlessly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Myst de Cartier<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Cartier
\u00a9 Courtesy of Cartier<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cartier’s most jewelry-focused piece of 2026, the Myst de Cartier is a sculptural wrist object inspired by watches made under creative director Jeanne Toussaint in the 1930s, featuring alternating lacquered and pav\u00e9 diamond sections on an elastic strap with no clasp. The square pav\u00e9-diamond dial with an onyx frame and inverted triangle at 12 o’clock represents 112 hours of gem-setting work alone. It blurs the line between watch and bracelet in a way that only Cartier can execute convincingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oris Watches Releases<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Oris<\/a> arrives at Watches and Wonders 2026 with two distinct releases that speak to the brand’s dual identity: a charming retro revival steeped in corporate history, and the return of the dressed-up Artelier collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oris Star Edition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Oris
\u00a9 Courtesy of Oris<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Oris Star is one of the most symbolically important watches in the brand’s history, it was the very first watch Oris released after a decades-long legal battle to overturn the Swiss Watch Statute, which had restricted the company to inferior escapements. The 2026 Star Edition is a faithful recreation of the 1966 original: a 35mm steel case with a cushion silhouette, domed plexi crystal, silver dial with bold applied indices and a period-correct sector design, all powered by the Cal. 733 lever escapement in a nod to the watch that started it all. It is an incredibly charming piece that wears its history with genuine pride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oris Artelier Complication<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Oris
\u00a9 Courtesy of Oris<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The revived Oris Artelier<\/a> collection is led by the Artelier Complication, a 39.5mm stainless-steel dress watch combining a pointer date register and moonphase display at 6 o’clock, both driven by Calibre 782 and adjusted via the crown or a single recessed pusher. The softly grained dial is available in ivory, midnight blue, or chestnut, with a choice of leather strap or bracelet for each color. It is a beautifully executed everyday dress watch at a price point that makes complicated movements genuinely accessible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
