About VO Vintage

VO Vintage is the vintage watch and jewellery market that, twice a year, opens the doors of the IEG exhibition centre in Vicenza to the general public, running alongside Vicenzaoro. A free and accessible opportunity for everyone to buy and admire iconic watches and jewellery that have marked entire eras. With specialised exhibitors, themed exhibitions, talks with experts and collectors, VO Vintage has become the most anticipated event for lovers of 'fine pre-owned' watches and vintage collecting.

Fine vintage in Vicenza

VO Vintage is the event that brings the best of vintage watch and jewellery collecting to Vicenza. Organised by Italian Exhibition Group in the exhibition centre, it takes place concurrently with Vicenzaoro and is one of the few industry events open free of charge to the general public, not just operators.

A quality market exhibition

The event brings together specialised exhibitors from all over Italy: dealers in vintage watchmaking and antique jewellery offering iconic pieces, from the big names in high watchmaking to jewellery that has made the history of taste. Alongside the market, themed exhibitions and moments of cultural insight liven up the days.

Culture and collecting

VO Vintage is not just about buying and selling: it hosts talks, presentations, and round tables with the protagonists of Italian collecting, experts, and scholars who tell the story of watchmaking and jewellery. A cultural programme that has consolidated Vicenza as the Italian capital of trade fairs and makes VO Vintage a reference point for enthusiasts and the curious.
