s per previous editions and since 2005, Only Watch will be held under the patronage of His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco. All auction proceeds will benefit research on Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and genetic diseases.

This anniversary edition celebrates Only Watch’s bright and colorful story by including all colours of previous editions in its visual identity, and adding the colour green, an emblem of hope, as a new component.

On the research side, doctoral and post-doctoral grants for young researchers have taken a central dimension in the charity’s projects, and on the watches side, the 2023 selection features iconic loyal brands and several young brilliant watchmaking talents collaborating to bring an innovative fresh touch to the offering.

The one-of-a-kind timekeepers are the result of the generous, committed and creative work of 73 watchmakers/brands, featuring 16 collaborations (between watchmakers or with artists and legendary brands), and resulting in an auction of 62 lots.

After the world tour (see details below), all watches will be auctioned by Christie’s on Sunday November 5, starting at 2pm (CET) at Palexpo. The auction can also be followed online via christies.com and bids can be additionally placed over phone. No buyer’s premium or commissions are applicable for the Only Watch charity sale, as in previous editions.
