After Dubai the GPHG on show at the Kunsthaus Zurich

Zurich, 2 December 2023 – The exhibition presenting the prize-winning timepieces in the 2023 edition of the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) opened yesterday at the Kunsthaus Zürich. The exhibition, which offers an insight into the captivating world of contemporary watchmaking and celebrates its excellence, is open to the public over the weekend of 2 and 3 December, from 10am to 6pm.

After a stopover at Dubai Watch Week, an unmissably warm and friendly exhibition that attracted more than 23,000 visitors and 60 watch brands this year, the award-winning timepieces from the 2023 edition made their way to the Auditorium of Zurich's Kunsthaus. Their presentation echoes the Time. From Dürer to Bonvicini exhibition on display at the Kunsthaus since September 2023 and features a transdisciplinary approach to the theme of Time.

The GPHG exhibition offers all watch lovers a unique opportunity to discover, on their own or with the help of a watchmaking expert, the 18 prize-winning timepieces – 16 watches and two clocks – awarded by the GPHG 2023 Academy and Jury, in an original scenography free of protective-glass display cases.

This third stopover in Zurich since the Foundation’s creation in 2021 testifies to the GPHG’s wish to promote the art of watchmaking worldwide as well as in Switzerland.
