2026 Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève Awards
The 26th annual Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) awards ceremony will take place on November 7 in Geneva, featuring 84 nominated watches competing across 19 categories. This year's event is notable for being conducted entirely in English to cater to a global audience and for a revised award structure that categorizes watches by type rather than gender. The ceremony will be livestreamed, and the nominated watches will be exhibited in London following the event.

The 26th edition of the GPHG ceremony will be held on November 7, 2026, at Geneva’s Bâtiment des Forces Motrices, starting at 6:30 PM CET.
This year's GPHG ceremony will be conducted entirely in English, reflecting its growing global audience and a shift toward increased accessibility.
The 84 nominated watches have previously been exhibited in Mumbai and Bangkok before arriving in Geneva.
Following the awards, Watches of Switzerland will present the nominated watches in an exhibition at its Knightsbridge showroom in London, open to the public from November 19-23.
The GPHG has reorganized its award categories around the characteristics and types of watches, moving away from separate men's and women's categories.
Hodinkee’s Senior Editor, Mark Kauzlarich, is part of the 24-person jury, which includes journalists, collectors, and industry members.
The jury's vote accounts for two-thirds of the final result, with the remaining third determined by ranked choices from the GPHG Academy.
