"The future depends on what we do in the present."
Mahatma Gandhi
It is with great enthusiasm that we announce the first independent watchmaking fair in Portugal.
This event is a unique opportunity to discover national micro-brands and independent watchmakers who design and produce their own watches.
In addition to discovering these exclusive creations, it will also be possible to purchase unique pieces, directly supporting the work and continuity of these watchmakers.
The program will include — in addition to the exhibition stands of brands and watchmakers — a conference dedicated to education for independent watchmaking, with the participation of Dann PhimPhrachanh and Paulo Anastácio, and the launch of the book History and Evolution of Watchmaking, authored by Sílvio Pereira.
