First Look – A new Rose Gold Version of the Longines Master Chronograph Moonphase
It’s easy to almost exclusively think about Longines’ Heritage or Spirit models, for them to be visually attractive, vintage-inspired models with a lot of arguments for a seasoned crowd. Recent watches, such as the Ultra-Chron Classic, the Spirit Pilot Flyback or the Conquest Heritage Central Power Reserve, have somehow stolen the show. There’s (much) more […]

Hands-On With The Hermès Cut Le Temps Suspendu And The Arceau Rocabar De Rire
When Hermès introduced the Cut at Watches and Wonders Geneva 2024, we said it arrived fashionably late to the integrated-bracelet party. However, the quirky 36mm pebble-like cushion case, in combination with the playful numerals, brought something exciting to the popular and overcrowded genre. At Watches and Wonders this year, the Parisian maison didn’t introduce any […]

Review: the Christopher Ward C1 Jump Hour Mk V
You have to hand it to Christopher Ward; they’ve been on a hell of a run. What was once a bit of an ‘also-ran’ brand with a stable of somewhat generic dive and dress watches has become a near-peerless independent powerhouse, turning out hit after hit and creating converts everywhere they (or at least their […]

Another Studio Underd0g Limited Edition Sees the 03SERIES Getting a Taste of the Good Life (Courtesy of Massena LAB)
The great paradox of many brands being so good at what they do is that they’re often so technically precise they lose a bit of personality in the process. Somehow, there’s a trade-off that many watch brands make in striving for the best, only to just miss the mark when it comes to anchoring their […]

The Horological Society of New York To Celebrate 160 Years With Milestone Gala at the Plaza Hotel, March 21, 2026
Black-tie evening to ft. celebrity co-chairs, lifetime achievement award, charity auction presented by Sotheby’s & more
The Horological Society of New York (HSNY), America’s first watchmaking guild, proudly announces its 160th anniversary Gala, to be held on Saturday, March 21, 2026, at the iconic Plaza Hotel in New York City.
The black-tie celebration will honor HSNY’s longstanding mission of advancing the art and science of horology and will feature celebrity co-chairs, the special presentation of a lifetime achievement award, a can’t-miss charity auction presented by Sotheby’s, an after-party, and much more.
The Gala will be co-chaired by a distinguished roster of celebrity ambassadors and industry leaders, including Roger W. Smith OBE, Founder of famed British brand Roger W. Smith Ltd., and HSNY Trustee; Danièla Dufour, distinguished independent watchmaker carrying forward the legacy of her father, Philippe Dufour; and actor Ben Ahlers of HBO’s historical drama series The Gilded Age, which features HSNY. Co-chairs for the Society’s 160th anniversary were carefully selected as beacons who share a deep appreciation for the art of timekeeping.
HSNY will honor renowned watchmaker François-Paul Journe with its Howard Fass Award for Lifetime Achievement, the Society’s highest honor. This prestigious award recognizes individuals who have shown extraordinary dedication to the ideals that the Society pursues. Journe’s lifetime of work has profoundly shaped the art and science of horology. Over decades, he has built upon tradition while driving innovation, creating timepieces that marry technical mastery with aesthetic brilliance. Beyond his own watchmaking, Journe has championed the next generation through his Young Talent Competition, providing crucial recognition and support to emerging watchmakers. From pioneering complicated mechanisms to elevating independent watchmaking on the global stage, his contributions have left an indelible mark on the craft, inspiring both his peers and future generations.
Between courses, HSNY will host an unforgettable live charity auction presented by Sotheby’s. Auction lots to be announced in early 2026.
In 2026, HSNY will triple its scholarship funding and introduce a new Independent Watchmaker Grant, offering three awards of $50,000 each. This significant expansion of HSNY’s scholarships and awards is made possible by a generous grant from the Vogt Foundation. At the 2025 Gala, HSNY raised over $300,000 and awarded scholarships to 28 students and four watchmaking schools in the United States, totaling $160,000.
Following the formal program, guests are invited to an exclusive after-party at The Plaza, where the celebration will continue late into the evening. The after-party will feature a DJ, dancing, and a full open bar, offering attendees the chance to toast HSNY’s milestone anniversary in true New York style. The glamorous affair will draw celebrity-turned watch enthusiasts, luxury watch brands, major auction houses, and of course, HSNY members.
“Reaching 160 years is an extraordinary milestone,” said Nicholas Manousos, HSNY Executive Director. “HSNY’s 2026 Gala is not only a celebration of our past—it’s a reaffirmation of our mission to ensure the future of watchmaking education. We are deeply grateful to our partners, members, and supporters who make this work possible.”
Since its founding in 1866, HSNY has served as a cornerstone for horological education, preservation, and community. Proceeds from the Gala will directly benefit HSNY’s financial aid programs, educational classes, library initiatives, and more, ensuring the Society continues to thrive for another 160 years.

Date: Saturday, March 21, 2026
Time: 6:00 PM — 11:00 PM
