Lancaster Watch Weekend Returns September 25–27
The Lancaster Watch Weekend is set to return from September 25th to 27th in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, celebrating American watchmaking. The event, co-hosted by the NAWCC Museum, Hamilton Boutique, RGM Watch Co., and Brent Miller Jewelers, aims to highlight the region's horological legacy and craftsmanship.
- Event dates: September 25–27

The event is positioned as a community-driven gathering, contrasting with larger, more formal watch shows, emphasizing direct interaction with watchmakers.
Lancaster County is noted for its historical significance in American watchmaking, with the Hamilton Boutique located in the historic E.F. Bowman building.
RGM Watch Co. is scheduled to debut a new watch at a launch party on Friday evening.
Saturday includes an RGM Open House at their workshop and Horology 101 classes hosted by the Horological Society of New York.
The Lancaster Watch Fair on Sunday will feature exhibitors such as Czapek, RGM, J.N. Shapiro, Weiss Watch Co., Towson Watch Co., Vortic Watch Co., 1776 Atelier, E.F. Bowman Watches, Love Hunter Watches, Seiko, Grand Seiko, Bell & Ross, and Jean Rousseau.
Demonstrations of traditional hand guilloché by RGM and hand stitching by Jean Rousseau are planned.
The Hamilton factory tour and NAWCC movement-assembly workshops were already full at the time of writing, with other events requiring advance booking.
