Watch industry highlights 2026 releases from Grand Seiko to MB&F

The 2026 watch industry features a diverse range of releases, from high-end technical upgrades to novelty collaborations.

Grand Seiko has introduced the Evolution 9 Spring Drive U. F. A Ushio 300 Diver, which increases water resistance to 300m and utilizes the new Ultra Fine Accuracy Spring Drive movement. This model is priced above $12,000. Norqain has released the Freedom GMT Enjoy Life 'Holiday,' a chronometer-certified watch featuring a vibrant turquoise, pink, and peachy orange Atlas dial. For a more accessible option, the Mr Jones x Beano Dennis the Menace collaboration offers a novelty design for under $300.

In the high-end segment, MB&F has partnered with Maison Alcée to create the Nostromo desk clock. Priced at $16,000, the clock is sold as a kit containing 222 components that the owner must assemble themselves using an illustrated instruction booklet.
