Style and Watches on Savile Row 

A multi-location event, Friday evening’s Style and Watches on Savile Row will see fine watchmaking and British tailoring come together on one of Mayfair’s most iconic streets. Hosted across two Savile Row locations, guests will move between the two venues to experience first-hand an immersive, informative and inspiring dialogue between horology and tailoring. 

Additional London Watch Week highlights 

Alongside its core programme, there will be a series of brand-led activations throughout London Watch Week, offering intimate and personal experiences for those on the hunt for their next timepiece. Highlights include an exclusive event with Oris at its Molton Street boutique, inviting guests to discover the brand’s heritage, in-house watchmaking and Swiss spirit. There will be a curated exhibition as well as interactive elements exploring Oris calibres and a hosted talk with senior members of the brand. 

British jeweller Pragnell will also be participating, showcasing a specially curated selection from independent high horology houses as well as its very own Pragnell Bray Origins Clock. A work of art designed by jeweller Charlie Pragnell and brought to life by master clockmaker Bob Bray, the timepiece pays homage to John Harrison’s revolutionary H1 Marine Chronometer and beautifully exemplifies British horological heritage, ingenuity, and craftsmanship. This will be on show at the jeweller’s Mayfair showroom, following its very first preview at Dumfries House, the home of the King’s Foundation.

Other boutique-led events and brand collaborations will bring together the most compelling brands in the market with a new generation of collectors, emphasising London’s prominent position on the global horological stage. 

A fantastic opportunity to step into the world of watchmaking and gain deeper insight into its mastery, London Watch Week 2026 invites guests to discover, learn and have fun with a vibrant, knowledgeable community over its five-day run. Be part of it.
