7th luxury watch exhibition SalonQP

7th luxury watch exhibition

SalonQP - The Saatchi Gallery, London. November 2015



SalonQP, Europe's premium fine watch exhibition, will be held at the Saatchi Gallery, London, from November 12-14. Now the largest luxury consumer watch fair in Europe, SalonQP was founded in 2009 and acquired by Telegraph Media Group in 2013.

Now in its seventh year, in 2014 the event attracted over 7,000 guests who were able to browse and buy watches from over 80 exhibiting brands. These included Nomos, the cult German brand and Bonhoff, an independent brand run by German engineer Hannes Bonhoff, who made his debut at Salon QP last year with two new inventions.

Among the 40 brands confirmed to attend this year are A. Lange & Söhne, founded in 1945 and Romain Jerome, famous for incorporating recovered steel from the Titanic and volcano lava into their watches. SalonQP regulars such as ChopardBremontMontblanc and MB&F will also be returning.


ad enough watches? The Salon will also play host to luxury cars (a new exhibition this year examines the relationship between cars and watches), cocktail bars (last year Chivas Regal whisky created the English Quaich cocktail – whisky, sherry, apple juice and ginger ale), craft demonstrations, piano recitals and watch service bars.
Inside A Second will be an exhibition looking at the history of the chronograph, produced in conjunction with Switzerland's Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie, which includes a cultural council of 42 watchmaking experts. The FHH's job is to share information and technical expertise about Swiss watchmaking, which has a huge international market - more than 95 per cent of production is exported and sold outside Switzerland.
