The Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève Awards (GPHG) recognises and rewards the most remarkable contemporary timepieces of the year.
Held annually, this year’s edition will see 84 watches and six clocks competing in 15 different categories, with a chance to win 20 awards including the Aiguille d’Or – the watchmaking industry’s highest honour. The event, created in 2001, aims to showcase the international art of watchmaking.
The awards ceremony will be held on Nov 9 at the Théâtre du Léman in Geneva, Switzerland.
Preceding the grand event is a world tour and Kuala Lumpur has the honour of being the only venue in South-East Asia.
The Hour Glass will be hosting the GPHG exhibition at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur from Oct 5 to 8.
