Wrist Enthusiast at Dubai Watch Week 2023

When you think of international watch fairs, you probably first think of Watches & Wonders, held in Geneva every year. But Dubai Watch Week, the biennial watch fair held in the United Arab Emirates, has been quickly gaining recognition as one of the most important watch events of the year. Held by Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons, the leading authorized retailed of watch brands in the UAE (boasting sales of over 70 brands), this year will be the biggest Dubai Watch Week ever.

The event returns in just over a week (November 16-20) and Wrist Enthusiast will be there for all the festivities. We will be there to cover the participating brands including Rolex, Audemars Piguet, Tudor, Hublot, Chopard, Ulysse Nardin, Girard-Perregaux, Van Cleef & Arpels, Chanel, and Bulgari (among many others).

The event features not only watch brand’s exhibiting their novelties, but a speakers forum, where many of the industry’s top executives and minds will come together to discuss a wide range of industry-related topics. We will do our best to keep our readers in the loop about both the watches being displayed and the discussions taking place.

But what makes this year’s Dubai Watch Week so special, is the the amount of new releases brands we anticipate seeing this year. Typically, we only see a large number of new releases with events such as Watches & Wonders (and to a lesser extent, Geneva Watch Days). But this year, many of the top brands will be releasing both limited edition and regular production pieces in honor of, and to coincide with, Dubai Watch Week. We will have all of those releases available at this link.

We also will be featuring Dubai Watch Week on all of our channels, including exclusive content (such as hands-on with pieces and interviews) via Instagram, YouTube, our Podcast and this blog. Make sure you check back often to see all the new content.

As we have already said, Dubai Watch Week is being held from November 16 to November 20, 2023 a The Gate in Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC). It is free and open to visitors. So if you are in the area, make sure to check it out. You can register to attend here.
