IEG: VO VINTAGE, ENCORE AT VICENZA EXPO FOR «CULT» JEWELLERY AND WATCHES
Each piece tells a story that either echoes in names like Tiffany &Co., Buccellati, Cartier, or in unique bracelets and necklaces made by 20th-century Italian craftsmen. For the “second wrist,” watch hands glide over dials by Vacheron & Constantin, IWC, Patek Philippe, or super-iconic models like the Daytona or Speedmaster, whose respective makers hardly need a mention.
This is the dream experience of VO Vintage, the open-to-the-public marketplace organized by Italian Exhibition Group at Vicenza Expo Center from September 5 to 8 in conjunction with Vicenzaoro September 2025. After the success of this year’s January edition, IEG is repeating the performance for the public of collectors, enthusiasts, or merely the inquisitive – an audience that, since January 2020 to date, has shown a qualified and constant growth. A success that responds to collectors’ search for forms of investment and the curiosity of the younger generations who are attracted to durable goods that increase in value over time.
From «cult» watches to the jewellery from the Dolce Vita years and even further back to pieces from the Belle Époque or even the Victorian era. Preciously decorated rings, necklaces and brooches in an array of gold and silver masterpieces embellished with diamonds, sapphires, emeralds, rubies, coral, pearls, onyx and opals, which will be on display in the showcases of important dealers such as E.L.A. Antichità, Gioielleria Faelutti, Italian Vintage Jewellery, Scala Gioielli, and the new entry from the Netherlands, EL & L Finery by Lisa Van Der Plas. As for watch dealers, those returning to Vicenza will include Andrea Foffi’s Vintage Watches and Cars, Antonio Nocco’s Il Quadrante, Marco Cesari’s Perusia Watches and Spangaro Watches.
As per tradition, IEG will be accompanying VO Vintage’s market opportunities with a full calendar of events at which to meet and engage with leading Italian experts in the field of both watches and jewellery during talks and workshops that will give a better understanding of these coveted objects and, together, assess their history, design and materials.

JCK & Luxury 2026 Spark New Growth With Expanded Watch Showcase and Strong Turnout
Exhibitors and Retailers Reported High-Quality Engagement, Robust Buying Interest, and Strong Networking Opportunities
JCK and Luxury 2026 attracted 17,500 attendees in Las Vegas, marking increased participation and strong business activity across the jewellery and watch sectors. The trade shows expanded their focus on timepieces, reflecting growing convergence between jewellery and watch retail. Exhibitors and retailers reported high-quality engagement, robust buying interest, and strong networking opportunities.
Educational sessions, industry events, and emerging trends—including alternative materials, gold charms, leather cords, and platinum settings—highlighted the evolving market landscape. Organiser RX Global described the event as a major success, reinforcing JCK’s position as the jewellery industry’s leading global marketplace.
“JCK and Luxury 2026 exceeded expectations on every level. The energy throughout the week was extraordinary, with very strong attendance, packed show floors, and meaningful business taking place at every turn. The level of engagement, business activity, and collaboration across the show floor demonstrated the power of bringing our global community together and underscores JCK’s role as the industry’s premier marketplace and gathering place,” said Sarin Bachmann, senior vice president for the jewelry portfolio at RX.
JCK and Luxury 2026 marked a major expansion of the show’s watches focus with the introduction of a dedicated destination for watch and timepiece brands, welcoming an exciting mix of established brands and independent microbrands for retailers to discover.
The launch of the destination reflects the continued convergence of the jewelry and watch industries, as retailers increasingly look to curate complementary product assortments for today’s consumers. More than just an exhibition space, the new destination combined watch-focused exhibitors, dedicated educational programming in partnership with FHH (Fondation Haute Horlogerie) and networking opportunities including WatchPro Power List and RedBar partner events, creating a well-rounded North American watch event where retailers could discover timepiece offerings, gain industry insights, and connect directly with leading brands. This new area also gave watch brands direct access to thousands of buyers and decision makers in the optimal location, at The Venetian during Luxury and JCK.
