By Roberta Naas It was eight years ago that the United Nations officially recognized June 8 as World Oceans Day. Today, we celebrate globally our Earth’s seas and our working together to keep them clean and healthy. Not only are organizations around the world fighting for this cause, but so, too, are a host of watch brands. Among them: Jaeger-LeCoultre, Rolex, Blancpain, Omega, IWC and a few others who offer everything from creating timepieces with proceeds going to organizations, to sponsorships of projects and expeditions, and more.

The SIHH is always a place where you can count on your senses being tantalized by the most extraordinary watches.
