This November, from the 28th to the 30th, something extraordinary unfolds at Jio World Plaza. The Hour Markers presents India Watch Weekend Collector's Edit in association with Jio World Plaza, a curated prelude to India's premier horological celebration, where craftsmanship, community, and the art of living beautifully converge for one unforgettable weekend.
Walk through the grand doors, and you'll sense it instantly: the thrill of exclusivity, the buzz of discovery. This isn't just another watch event. It's an immersive celebration designed for collectors, enthusiasts, and aesthetes who understand that watches are more than instruments; they're stories, symbols, and time held in your hands.
The Collector's Edit is an invitation to explore, to engage, and to experience watches beyond the display case. We wanted to create something that feels celebratory, accessible, and deeply immersive - a prelude with its own distinct character." Karishma Karer, Co-Founder, India Watch Weekend
What to Expect
Over three days, the weekend brings together some of the world's most celebrated maisons: IWC Schaffhausen, Panerai, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Piaget, Grand Seiko, Hermès, Bulgari, and Cartier.
AiSPi, featuring designers like Rosantica, L'Afshar, PH5, and Vanina, in association with RedBar India, come together for a panel discussion on "The Art of Curating a Collection" exploring what it means to collect with intention, from personal style and emotional value to rarity and storytelling.
Expect hands-on watchmaking workshops, adrenaline-fueled simulators, intimate design dialogues with JJ Valaya, styling conversations with Canali, a special Sixties-inspired Piaget session with Karishma Karer and Mira Kapoor diving into the world of women and watches, Japanese origami experiences, and immersive pop-ups where horology meets haute design. And for those seeking something truly special, The Hour Markers Collectors Corner × The Dram Club presents an intimate evening where distinguished collectors share pieces from their private collections alongside a curated whisky speed-tasting journey.
Between activations, the Café Lounge becomes your home base; a space to unwind, meet fellow enthusiasts, or linger over coffee. And when night falls, exclusive evening soirées begin (by invitation only, naturally), where collectors mingle with brand ambassadors and conversations flow as smoothly as the champagne.
"The Collector's Edit is our way of saying: the conversation doesn't wait until January. It starts now. This is for everyone who's ever been captivated by the poetry of a movement, the heritage in a dial, or the confidence that comes from wearing something truly exceptional." Punit Mehta, Co-Founder, India Watch Weekend
For one unforgettable weekend, Jio World Plaza transforms into Mumbai's temple of time, a place to see, be seen, and lose yourself in the art of horology.
