Miami will act as the host to the replica watches and Wonder While SIHH has wrapped up in Geneva, which will have most of the same brands that exhibited at SIHH. In other words, it will be predominantly Richemont Group brands and some others. Slated to break out in the Miami Design District from February 16 – 19 and organized in relationship with Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie, watch fans will have an opportunity to see the new SIHH novelties in the metal, as well as enjoy a large number of other horology-focused activities.
Together with the boutiques, Watches & Wonder will also consist of pop-up stores from Armin Strom, F.P. Journe, Ralph Lauren, Romain Gauthier, Romain Jerome, and Voutilainen. Guests can get an intimate look at some spectacular fake watches from the brands, talk to important people who work there, and watch artisans work on their craft.
In addition to getting up close with the newest gorgeous watches available today—and some great boutique exclusives too—Watches & Wonder will also provide chances to nerd out on watch-making knowledge as well.
From watch-making workshops where attendees can take apart and put back together with the famous UNITAS 6497-1 movement to lectures discussing the history of pilot watches, chronographs, complications, and vintage watches, there’s plenty to learn here. 
Similar to Dubai replica Watch Week, Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie will set up a virtual reality experience dubbed The Mastery of Time where visitors can experience operating a flyback chronograph Grumman F6F Hellcat from WW2, use a marine chronometer on a 19th-century three-masted sailing ship, and handle a Universal Genève railroad watch while driving a steam locomotive.
In the end, visitors to Watches & Wonder can also immerse themselves in the Telling Time art exhibition displaying works from a range of global artists.
If you’ll be near the Miami area this February make some time and head to the watch-centric weekend at Miami Design District. And if you don’t always have any ideas to be in that part of the country, now is as good as the time and to book an early spring break treat!
