n a landscape shaped by established formats and rigid codes, Chronopolis introduces a different rhythm for independent watchmaking. Taking place from April 14 to April 18, 2026, at Les Halles de l’Île, in the very heart of Geneva, this new watch fair brings together independent watch brands in a shared and open space, conceived as a city within the city. Open and free to all, it offers a convivial environment where watches can be touched, experienced and, for those who wish, directly acquired, fostering exchange, proximity and genuine human connection.

Open and free to all, Chronopolis places people at the centre of the experience. Collectors, enthusiasts, professionals and curious visitors are invited to discover watchmaking in a relaxed yet carefully crafted environment, where scenography, design and attention to detail mirror the spirit of the brands on display.

Chronopolis demonstrates that avant-garde creativity and accessibility can coexist. That independent brands can share a space without competition, favouring dialogue over hierarchy. And that a watch fair can be welcoming, immersive and affordable, while remaining demanding in its vision.
