Days of the Independents 2026: Celebrating the Mavericks of Watchmaking in London

On September 19, 2026, The Limited Edition hosts Days of the Independents at London's Lansdowne Club. The event brings together independent watchmakers and collectors to celebrate craftsmanship free from corporate constraints. Spot reservation is available via email for QR ticket access.

Every year, there are certain dates that we circle in the calendar long before they arrive. For all of us at The Limited Edition, Days Of The Independents is one of those moments.

What began as a passion for celebrating independent watchmaking has grown into something far greater—an opportunity to bring together creators, collectors, enthusiasts, and friends from around the world to share in the artistry, innovation, and human stories that make independent horology so special. As the project manager of this event, it is a privilege to witness first-hand the incredible effort, creativity, and enthusiasm that goes into making these days possible.

Independent watchmaking has never been more vibrant. The watchmakers represented at Days Of The Independents continue to challenge conventions, push technical boundaries, and create timepieces that reflect genuine individuality. These are watches born not from committees, but from the vision, perseverance, and craftsmanship of extraordinary people. It is this spirit that inspires us, and it is the reason we remain so passionate about creating a platform where these voices can be celebrated.

This event is about far more than watches. It is about the relationships that have been built over years of conversations, shared discoveries, and unforgettable experiences. It is about meeting the watchmakers whose ideas shape our industry, connecting collectors with the stories behind their treasured pieces, and welcoming newcomers into a community that thrives on curiosity and appreciation for exceptional craftsmanship.

Each year, we strive to make Days Of The Independents bigger, better, and more memorable than the last. Seeing so many remarkable brands gathered under one roof, alongside a passionate international audience, is a reminder of just how far the independent watchmaking community has come—and how exciting its future continues to be.

On behalf of everyone at The Limited Edition, thank you for being part of this journey. Whether you are joining us for the first time or returning as a familiar friend, we are delighted to welcome you. We hope these days provide inspiration, new discoveries, meaningful conversations, and memories that will stay with you long after the event has come to a close.

We are incredibly proud to host Days Of The Independents and even more excited for what lies ahead. Here's to celebrating the innovators, creators, and dreamers who continue to redefine what independent watchmaking can be.
