The Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) organises its usual open-to-the-public exhibition presenting the nominated watches at the Musée Rath in Geneva.
Each autumn, in the run-up to the annual awards ceremony (this year it will be held 13 November), the GPHG organises a travelling exhibition in a few of the world’s major cities presenting the nominated 90 timepieces. Now the watches are back to Geneva and the horology lovers in the city can visit the exhibition from 31 October to 17 November 2024 (11:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.) and also register for guided tours.
On the occasion, the GPHG Foundation and its partners, like the FHH (Fondation de Haute Horlogerie) or the Geneva School of Watchmaking will host a cultural mediation program – please find the details here.
At the same time HEAD – Genève presents Beyond The Clock, a showcase conceived as an experimental laboratory to explore the concept of time in all its forms. The projects featured here were created by students from the Chair of Watch Design and the Master of Media Design.
