Top Highlights from SIHH 2018
The Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie Genève, or SIHH, is a By Invitation Only exhibition of innovative, high-end watchmaking every year in Geneva, Switzerland.
SIHH 2018 showcased some of the most ground-breaking, luxurious watches to date.
A. Lange & Söhne Triple Split Chronograph
The A. Lange & Söhne Triple Split Chronograph is the first of its kind: a rattrapante chronograph capable of measuring and comparing the time of two concurrent events, of up to twelve hours’ duration.
IWC Tribute to Pallweber Edition “150 Years”
For its 150th anniversary year, IWC honors the historical Pallweber pocket watch with the IWC Tribute to Pallweber Edition “150 Years” watch. As part of IWC’s Jubilee Collectin, the stainless-steel watch features a digital time format and a black alligator leather strap.
Drive de Cartier Extra Flat
Created by Cartier for Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie, the slim 6.6mm Drive de Cartier Extra Flat astounds. With updated case options in steel and gold, the stylish watch presents a vintage look with a modern feel.
Piaget Altiplano Ultimate Automatic 910P
At just 4.3mm thick, Piaget has shattered the record for the world’s thinnest watch. The ground-breaking Piaget Altiplano Ultimate Automati 910P ultra-thin watch is the epitome of elegance and innovation.
Richard Mille RM 07-01 with Diamond-set Ceramic Case
Dramatically featuring a black ceramic case with never-before-seen gem-setting that places a frame of diamonds around the dial, the Richard Mille RM 07-01 makes a prominent statement piece.
Van Cleef & Arpels Lady Arpels Planétarium
With an astronomical complication that tracks the movement of the planets around the sun, Van Cleef & Arpels is a truly stunning lady’s wach. Featuring the Sun at the center of the dial, circulated by Venus (green enamel), Earth (turquoise), Mercury (pink mother-of-pearl), and the Moon (diamond), this complex watch is an astronomical wonder of its own.
Cartier Rotonde de Cartier Skeleton Mysterious Double Tourbillon
The baffling tourbillon in the centerpiece off this new Cartier watch appears to float in mid-air with no connection to the rest of the movement. Made of solid platinum, only 30 examples are available of this mystery-inspired limited edition piece.
Ulysse Nardin Freak Vision Automatic
Redefining modern watchmaking with a unique aesthetic, Ulysse Nardin has showcased the Freak Vision timepiece, which is the first automatic watch in the collection.
