Mechanics and tradition—a portrait of classic watchmaking

Mechanical watches stand for precision, craftsmanship, and a special understanding of time. On Messe.TV, various manufacturers show how they combine tradition and innovation – from finely refined movements to artistically designed dials. The models presented range from manufactured watches to limited-edition collector's items.

Watch manufacturers with manual winding and automatic movements
Single-hand watches as a philosophical statement on time
Watches based on the Bauhaus model or with artistic designs

Origin also plays a role – whether from the Black Forest, Glashütte, or international centers of watchmaking, the variety of classic watches remains vast.

Smartwatches and connected watches – technology on your wrist

In addition to traditional watchmaking, digital models are becoming increasingly important. Smartwatches combine functions such as fitness tracking, navigation, and mobile communication with modern design. Messe.TV showcases developments from tech companies and classic brands that integrate digital solutions.

Smartwatches for sports, everyday life, and health
Models with GPS, heart rate monitoring, and smartphone connectivity
Hybrid watches with analog dials and digital features

The spectrum ranges from minimalist designs to outdoor models with robust cases.

Design and lifestyle – fashionable watches for everyday use

Watches have long been more than just timepieces – they are an expression of style and personality. At various trade fairs, brands present themselves with bold colors, clean lines, or nature-inspired materials. The lifestyle segment in particular shows how diverse watch design is today.

Watches made of wood, stone, or ultra-light materials
Colorful models as a fashion statement

In addition to design, the price-performance ratio also plays an important role for many buyers.

Functional watches for everyday use and work

In addition to design and technology, a watch also impresses with its practical uses. Pendulum and table clocks for indoor use, outdoor watches with special sensors, or solar-powered models cover a wide range of functional requirements. Messe.TV also presents special solutions for specific purposes.

Clocks with solar or radio control
Outdoor models with altimeter, compass, and barometer

The interplay of function and form in particular gives rise to particularly well-designed products.

International brand diversity and new trends

The trade fair appearances of international manufacturers show how lively and dynamic the watch market is. Japanese technology, European craftsmanship, or creative start-ups—the range of brands and models on display is constantly growing. Messe.TV documents this diversity with in-depth reports and interviews.

Traditional brands from Japan, Germany, and Switzerland
