5 years of Spring Sprang Sprung: How this Singapore watch fair grew from 24 to more than 70 brands

Spring Sprang Sprung, Singapore's premier watch fair, has evolved from a modest 24-brand gathering in 2022 to an expansive event featuring over 70 independent and microbrand watch names in 2026. The fair, which will be held at the Glass Dome on China Street from November 14 to 15, has added more than 30 new brands and introduced a Chronoscape showcase highlighting established independent names.

In addition to showcasing watches, the fair offers hands-on watchmaking workshops, panel discussions, and opportunities to meet the creators behind the timepieces. Co-founded by Sugiharto Kusumadi and Lim Yong Keong, the event was born out of a desire to provide collectors with the chance to experience independent watches in person, as photographs and specifications often fail to convey the true essence of these timepieces.
