Call for Speakers! Registration

JSH is very grateful to the organizers for always being present at SSC events: founded in October 1924 during celebrations at the Palais de l'Athénée in Geneva commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Geneva Watchmaking School, the SSC entrusted the Journal Suisse d'Horlogerie JSH with the task of being its official publication as soon as the month after its foundation.

This sparkling topic is sure to ignite some heated debates on stage at the SwissTech Convention Center in Lausanne during the 2026 Study Day. In front of the 800 technicians who usually attend these scientific exchanges focused on knowledge transfer, the speakers will share their presentations and engage in a Q&A session.

During this highlight of 2026, “beyond technical performance, this day also aims to pay tribute to craftsmanship, skill, and emotion—everything that transforms a component into a small art piece and ensures that each watch tells a story about humanity and time,” according to the official SSC announcement.

Speakers are invited to submit proposals on the following topics: 1) designing together, 2) simulation and validation, 3) from prototype to product, and 4) birth and rebirth.
