On Newsstands: WOW Summer 2022
The 2022 watch novelties take centre stage in issue #65 of WOW Singapore.
The post On Newsstands: WOW Summer 2022 appeared first on LUXUO.
Our first issue of the new watch year for 2022/23 takes in all the most breathtaking novelties, or at least the ones that made the best first impressions. After years without physical watch fairs, WOW Singapore reaffirmed our own commitment to these events? yes there were a few, and you can read about them in separate stories in the Summer issue and my Conversation with Ruckdee, the editor of WOW Thailand who was in Geneva with me.
Given that the Internet and all its advantages have freed us from having to make sweeping statements, we use this issue to take stock of the huge news dump that trade shows usually are. We will be feeling the impact of Geneva well into 2023, and we are really happy about it.

Reacting to the releases ? turning on a dime as they say ? at the fair, we changed our material focus this issue from a generic look at precious metals to one more focused on platinum and bi-metal watches, and the possible value propositions in both that will be important to collectors, enthusiasts and even the more casual prestige buyers. This is an in-depth look at pricing, which is always a contentious issue as far as watchmaking goes. I mean, brands did not even publicly announce prices on their own websites until a few years ago.
No doubt the Conversatio...
