Luxury brand watches: the best manufacturers

Swiss wristwatches have long been the standard of accuracy, an attribute of success and viability. They are valued all over the world and are an indicator of a sense of style and taste. Such watches can cost thousands of dollars not only because of their high status and prestige but because of:

• high-end materials. Products of elite watch brands are made from expensive materials using patented technologies. In addition to the use of gold, silver and platinum, many models are complemented by precious stones;
• assembly. Often such an accessory is assembled by hand;
• limited edition. Many manufacturers deliberately create limited series of products to emphasize the elitism of their items.
