Press focused opening hours for media and retailers
From 8 to 10AM each day, CHRONOPOLIS will offer a time window for media and retailers. This quieter moment is designed to encourage focused discussions, in depth presentations and direct exchanges with the brands, in a more relaxed and deliberate setting.
Daily happy hours with adjusted pricing
From 5 to 7PM, CHRONOPOLIS introduces daily happy hours, offering smoother priced drinks and inviting visitors, brands and partners to gather in a relaxed atmosphere. These moments extend conversations beyond the watches and reinforce the social dimension of the fair.
CHRONOPOLIS Party — Thursday April 16, 7 PM (open to the public)
On Thursday, April 16, as night falls, the walls of CHRONOPOLIS begin to tremble and the city finds its rhythm. Happy Hour runs from 5PM to 7PM, before the party takes over from 7PM onward. Music in the air, drinks flowing, as brands, media, collectors, retailers and visitors gather beyond the booths. Welcome to the night side of the city: CHRONOPOLIS.
Chrono24 announced as GLOBAL PARTNER
CHRONOPOLIS proudly announces Chrono24 as its Global Partner.Beyond a shared commitment to openness and accessibility in watchmaking, the partnership also carries a lighter coincidence: sharing half of the name felt like a good sign from the start. A natural alignment between two platforms built around time, community and exchange.
Scenography by Tom Ducarouge
The scenography of CHRONOPOLIS is entrusted to Tom Ducarouge, an up and coming designer whose work has already led to collaborations with Louis Vuitton, New Balance and other international brands. Known for his experimental approach to materials, particularly metal, Ducarouge will design bespoke booth structures developed specifically for CHRONOPOLIS, translating its visual identity into a physical and architectural language.
Conceived as a city within the city, the scenography encourages movement, perspective and encounter, while giving each brand a clear and readable presence within a coherent overall environment.
OFFICIAL PARTNERS announced
CHRONOPOLIS confirms the support of its Main Partners: Jean Rousseau, Donkey Republic, Eagle Eye Watches, and Mendel Watches. Their involvement contributes to the experience across mobility, services and watchmaking, reinforcing the fair’s ambition to create a coherent, accessible and well-crafted environment.
MEDIA PARTNERS confirmed
CHRONOPOLIS is supported by a curated selection of Media Partners whose editorial voices actively shape contemporary watch culture. Together, they extend the conversation beyond the walls of Les Halles de l Île, amplifying the fair’s values of independence, openness and dialogue.
Through these announcements, CHRONOPOLIS continues to define an alternative model for watch fairs. A format built around time, people and exchange, where independent watchmaking is experienced at its own pace.
