Blancpain Puts on a Show and New York Prepares for the Big Watch Week

Published: 06 Oct 2025
Horology enthusiasts should brace themselves for a fortnight of exquisite timepieces, insightful conversations, and mouth-watering sneak peeks.

Blancpain, the revered timepiece maker, inaugurated its flagship store in Manhattan earlier this year. If you have yet to visit, you now have a stupendous reason to do so. The Le Brassus-based watchmaker plans to host an exclusive event that promises insightful conversations, a pre-launch preview of the Villeret timepieces, and the chance for enthusiasts to hobnob with Leonardo Laviola, President of Blancpain North America, and TanTan Wang, the Examining Editor at Hodinkee.

These events, in addition to filling attendees with awe and wonder, serve as prime networking platforms. Attendees will get a chance to interact with the faces and names that represent their beloved brands. New York’s phenomenal horological fortnight is also due to host the first FHH NYC Watch Summit, presented by the Fondation Haute Horlogerie.
