Join us on a journey into old world high horology, elegance and independent watchmaking. The CP7 Boys are back to bring you an exclusive interview with the acting-CEO of Louis Moinet, Kurt Kupper, on the eve of Geneva Watch Days 2026, and before we fly out to Geneva. Louis Moinet was the watchmaker, if you didn’t know, responsible for inventing the first chronograph, in a pocket watch in 1816, one of the most popular and enduring complications in horological history.

Kurt tells us how Louis Moinet’s celebratory 1816 Chronograph wristwatch is rapidly becoming their flagship piece, focused on heritage and affordability alongside some of the most impressive haute horology and use of materials (some older than the earth!) in independent watchmaking.

No show about Loius Moinet would be complete without discovering the achievements and creativity of their former CEO Jean-Marie Schaller, a real visionary who sadly passed away in May this year. Discover how he rejuvenated the company and turned it into the exclusive collector’s fan favourite it is today, and what Kurt and his team have planned to continue that legacy and beyond.

So buckle up and enjoy the ride, let the orchestra play as we take a magical journey into classical luxury watchmaking and opulent old world charm, with a modern twist, as Kurt Kupper talks all things Louis Moinet.

Join the CP7 boys with the first watch designer we’ve had on our show. We speak with and get to know Will Brackfield, the senior designer for the rapidly growing British watch brand Christopher Ward, and the man behind the design of many of their recent, immensely popular watches.
Christopher Ward has taken a bit of a gamble this year, in redesigning the most popular watch in their range, The Sealander Auto and GMT. We find out why they made the big decision and what went behind reinventing their biggest watch icon, with those oh so subtle, yet oh so impactful changes.

We also dive into Will’s other design projects, some of which may surprise you, and break down how a Christopher Ward watch evolves from first sketch to final creation.

So buckle up and enjoy the ride as we talk Sealanders, Bel Cantos and Twelves with Will Brackfield, Christopher Ward’s senior designer.

We are back from Geneva and Watches & Wonder 2026, so rather than following the crowd, we've added our own CP7 twist. So welcome to the inaugural CP7 Watches & Wonders Golden Tiger Awards, where we nominate our favourite watches from the show and award our combined favourites with the prestigious Golden Tiger. We pick from five specific categories so listen in to see which roars loudest!

So who were the winners and the losers in Geneva, did Rolex, Moser, Tudor, Piaget or Audemars Piguet shine? And who tanked to win the Silver Turkey Award?

Of course, no Geneva show is complete without our highlights from the journey and what we loved, and didn't love so much, at the show.

So buckle up and enjoy the ride of a watch awards show with a difference.
