Here is your hub for all the latest from Geneva, as it happens! We are covering Geneva Watch Days 2026 this year, bringing you the usual live coverage that you know and love from our Watches & Wonders coverage. This page will be continuously updated and will serve as your hub throughout our time in Geneva.
Live from GWD26: Your hub for the latest and greatest in Geneva | Updated daily
Deployant’s live coverage of Geneva Watch Days 2026, with first-hand impressions, original iPhone photography and near-live reporting from Geneva.
As Peter visits each maison, he will be taking photographs—iPhone only, for speed—while noting his impressions of handling each watch. Almost immediately, the post goes online.
Live vicariously as we follow Peter around Geneva and discover the novelties as he does.
Each report will be published as a Live from GWD26 article and linked back here, so this page becomes the central index for our coverage.
These are deliberately immediate first impressions rather than polished reviews. Detailed hands-on reviews will follow where appropriate.
Bookmark this page. Return to it daily—or better yet, multiple times a day! We will update the links as the days go along.
And follow along on Instagram @deployant for Stories, Reels and posts throughout the show, including near-live video from Geneva.
