    Only Watch is set to return to Geneva in November, making it the second time the charity auction will be held in the epicenter of haute horlogerie since its first edition in 2005.

    The biennial fundraiser raises money for research on muscular dystrophy and is co-founded by Luc Pettavino, President of Association Monégasque contre les Myopathies(AMM). The latter was the former CEO and shareholder of the Monaco Yacht Show for nearly two decades.

    Since 2001, he has been working with AMM on therapeutic solutions for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), a condition which afflicted his son Paul who passed away last November at the age of 21.
