**Montre de l'Année** (Watch of the Year) is a Swiss watch award.

This prize is awarded annually by the Swiss watch magazines //Montres Passion// and //Uhrenwelt// at the end of each year. The jury, consisting of professionals from the watch industry, makes a pre-selection among 40 finalists, selected from about a hundred new products. Then the audience, in the context of an online competition, can vote on these models.

There are the following inclusion criteria 

  * The selected watch must have the "Swiss made" label.
  * You must be published between 1 September of the previous year and 31 December of the current year.
  * Its store price may not exceed 50,000 CHF.
  * It can also be equipped with a [[quartz movement]], but must have an added technical or aesthetic value.
  * It must be produced in at least 200 pieces.
  * First and foremost, the technical qualities, the finishing of the movement, the readability of the dial, the design, the wearing comfort and the price-quality ratio are considered.

There are the following price categories 

  * 1st, 2nd and 3rd Prize of the Jury. The jury determines the winning trio for the watch of the year from the 5 models of the last pre-selection.
  * Ladies Watch of the Year
  * Audience Award
  * Special Jury Prize (optional)
