Rado’s HyperChrome Captain Cook has made waves this year, mostly due to the nearly pitch perfect 37mm reissue.

One wonders how it is possible for watch companies to constantly pump out new products for eager watch lovers every year.

This week on The Business of Watches, an extended chat with a duo whose business is watch market data. Charles Tian is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of WatchCharts.com, and Hamza Masood is Head of Business Partnerships at the U.S.-based company. Both are longtime technology executives who turned a passion for watches into a business. That venture is WatchCharts, and it gathers and analyzes secondary market watch prices to show demand trends, price movements, and the relative health and desirability of brands and luxury groups in the sector. Its customers include retailers, watch dealers, collectors, and brands. WatchCharts founder and CEO Charles Tian.Photo credit: Brandon Moore With U.S. investment bank Morgan Stanley, WatchCharts uses its data to produce in-depth reports four times a year on the state of the secondary market. The third-quarter report, published in mid-October, shows the fifth straight quarter of overall market gains of more than 1%, suggesting stability and recovery. Still, the growth is slowing and is the weakest since mid 2025. While gains are more widespread among watchmakers, with prices for 28 of 35 brands tracked posting quarter-over-quarter gains, the overall WatchCharts index is still about 28% below its all-time peak, a record hit during the post-pandemic euphoria of April 2022.

On Saturday, November 7, the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève will return to Geneva for its 26th edition, bringing together 84 nominated watches competing across 19 prize categories, including the coveted Aiguille d’Or Grand Prix (known as the “Best in Show” prize). This year’s ceremony marks an important first for the GPHG: It will be conducted entirely in English, reflecting its growing global audience and a shift toward increased accessibility to the public. The winning watches will be announced at Geneva’s Bâtiment des Forces Motrices beginning at 6:30pm CET (12:30pm ET) — and you can watch the livestream here at Hodinkee or on gphg.org. The 84 finalists have already made stops in Mumbai and Bangkok before arriving in Geneva for the final stage of the competition. Following the awards, Watches of Switzerland will have the privilege of presenting them in another exhibition at its Knightsbridge showroom in London. An invite-only preview will take place on November 18, and the exhibit will be open to the public November 19-23. The 26th edition also introduces a new approach to the award categories. Rather than separating watches into men’s and women’s categories, the GPHG has reorganized the competition around the characteristics and types of the watches themselves. These changes are part of a broader evolution of the awards as the GPHG continues to reflect the diversity of contemporary watchmaking. Hodinkee’s very own Senior Editor, Mark Kauzlarich...

Christie’s will mark its 40th anniversary in Asia with The Iconic 40 Watches Evening Sale, taking place in Hong Kong on November 25. Bringing together 40 vintage and contemporary watches, the sale includes elaborate grand complications, familiar designs in previously unknown configurations, and a prize-winning observatory chronometer. Perhaps unsurprisingly for a sale focused on icons, more than half of the watches — 23 of the 40 — were produced by Patek Philippe. But it wouldn’t be a high-end auction without a few prime examples of independent watchmaking, represented in this case by a small but mighty contingent of F.P. Journe watches, including a ruby-dialled Tourbillon Souverain and a 38 mm Chronomètre à Résonance. Amongst the historical highlights is lot 4010, the Patek Philippe tourbillon pocket watch awarded a first prize at the Geneva Observatory in 1931. The movement features a tourbillon cage made by none other than James Pellaton, and the complete set includes both its yellow gold case with enamel dial and its antimagnetic steel competition case with sector dial — no other Patek Philippe observatory tourbillon is publicly known to retain both configurations. Turning to contemporary complications, lot 4021 is a Patek Philippe Celestial ref. 6104/12G-010 that pairs the astronomical display descended from the Star Caliber 2000 with a white gold case and baguette-cut ruby bezel. This possibly unique configuration aligns with growing interest in gem-set ...
