L.A. fires force LVMH to change the location of the 2025 Watch Week

LVMH makes some venue changes due to the L.A fires

The 2025 LVMH Watch Week would have been held in Los Angeles, but the venue was changed due to the recent fires that have been consuming the city. Different luxury watch brands, from Zenith and Bulgari to Tag Heuer had prepped for the event, which was supposed to go down in Bel Air. It’s worth noting that all these brands are under the same company.

Unfortunately, the California wildfires, which started on January 7th, have covered over 38,600 acres and burnt down 12,000 structures in seven days. What started as small fires grew into huge fires. Multiple neighborhoods, such as Bel Air, Sylmar, and Pacific Palisades, were affected. Evacuation alerts were sent to residents. While the firefighting department has stopped fires in various regions, the wildfires might spread to different neighborhoods as the winds grow stronger.

Due to such circumstances, LVMH made the decision to switch the venue of the 2025 Watch Week from Los Angeles to New York. The company announced the recent changes and informed everyone about its new venue in New York City. Despite all this, the Watch Week still kicks off on January 21st, as it had been scheduled. Since LVMH is a global company, it also scheduled another event in Europe.

The European Watch Week will be held in Paris, and it will start on January 31st.

Enthusiasts are expecting new watch models from LVMH this January. Just like the 2024 Watch Week, the 2025 week is perfect for new releases. Zenith, Bulgari, and Tag Heuer might launch some new models.

Serious Question: Why are you wearing anything OTHER than Taylor Stitch this fall?
Outdoors, Nature, Yard

Look, I am admitting it right here. The internet is forever. So I know I can never take this back. But I am not an unbiased journalist. Sure, I try to be objective in my reporting of brands and trends. But subjectively, I have favorites. Brands that speak to me. Brands that fit me well. The ones that define my lifestyle better than any others. Now that I have that off my chest, I can objectively say that there is no better brand for your casual wardrobe than Taylor Stitch. I have always loved them more than most, but this year, the Taylor Stitch F/W collection has me asking one very important question for all of you out there:

Why the Hell are you wearing anything other than Taylor Stitch this fall?

Christopher Ward’s new release turns its sporty Loco into a dress watch
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Can a watch be a dress watch if it’s got an in-your-face design element like, say, the balance wheel visibly spinning on the dial? Christopher Ward is betting yes.

The Maidenhead, England-based brand just launched their C1 Loco Classic, a dressed-up take on last year’s C12 Loco. That watch was an angular, brightly colored sports watch built around the brand’s in-house CW-003 movement.
