Enter the dragon…
This Saturday sees the dawning of Chinese New Year, heralded – as has become traditional in the world of horology – by the launch of a host of celebratory watches. 2024 is the year of the dragon, a highly auspicious moment in the 12-year cycle of the animals that appear in the Chinese zodiac. The dragon is not regarded as a creature of fear, but as a rain deity, a symbol of prosperity, fertility and good fortune – and an emblem of imperial authority.
However you choose to mark the moment, from a steel Swatch to a one-of-a-kind Vacheron Constantin inlaid with 146 baguette-cut diamonds, here is our selection of dragon-themed watches.
