The Watch Photo Awards, which were launched in the spring, reward the best watch photos submitted on a different theme every month, from May to October 2018. At the end of each monthly competition, the WPA jury selects ten photos, according to the criteria of creativity, relevance to the theme and technical proficiency. These ten photos are published by the WPA’s media partners. The public then votes for the best of those ten.
The winners of the monthly competitions
OCTOBER: in October, the theme was "Black". The winner is Lars Kehrel (Germany)
SEPTEMBER: in September, the theme was "Food and Drink". The winner is Ondrej Vislocky (Czechia)
AUGUST: in August, the theme was "On 2 wheels or 4". The winner is Gionibek Kudaibergen (Switzerland)
JULY: in June, the theme was "Holidays". The winner is Stéphane Perin (France)
JUNE: in June, the theme was "Sport". The winner is Henry Cookson (United Kingdom)
MAY: In May, the theme was “Blue”. The winner is Christophe Musy (Switzerland)
All the monthly winners, along with the authors of the other nine shortlisted photos, will be invited to the preview of the WPA exhibition at Geneva’s Museum of Art and History at the beginning of November, where the sixty photos on the six monthly themes will go on display. Watch-loving fans will be pleased to learn that the WPA exhibition takes place during the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève.
