The temporis awards 2025 jury
Each year, the TEMPORIS International Awards brings together a panel of visionaries—pioneers, master watchmakers, journalists, engineers, and industry insiders—whose deep expertise and passion for horology shape the global conversation on excellence in watchmaking.
For the 2025 edition, we proudly present a renewed and exceptional jury lineup:
a dynamic mix of legendary voices and rising talents, from lifelong professionals to passionate newcomers whose paths to the stage are nothing short of inspiring.
Among them are Roberta Naas, the first woman watch journalist and one of the most respected voices in the industry, Dr. Andy Palmer, former CEO of Aston Martin and “Godfather of EVs,” now fascinated by the micro-engineering of watches, Roger Ruegger, Editor-in-Chief of WatchTime USA and founder of DiveIntoWatches.com, Miguel Seabra, journalist and tennis expert with a deep eye for horological precision, Fabrice Brulhart, a storyteller of time who went from gala attendee to jury seat in just one year, Silvio Jobin, co-author of the Deloitte Swiss Watch Industry Study and passionate advocate of Swiss horology
This is more than a jury. It’s a movement.
A celebration of the diversity and passion that define modern watchmaking—and proof that, in the world of TEMPORIS, true love for timepieces can lead to incredible opportunities.
