Ranking of luxury and cheap Swiss watch brands
We are making a compilation of the best Swiss watch brands and for this we are going to add the manufacturers of luxury watches that reside directly in the Alpine country. Some of the watch companies have centuries of tradition in the sector, others are younger and innovative, but in any case, all of them have a great reputation in the high-end sector.
Within watches made in Switzerland there are notable differences between different brands. Despite being concentrated in a small region of Europe, the great watchmakers have their own style. Some create pieces with a simple, minimalist appearance. Others, on the other hand, give a style of wealth and great ostentation with products designed with diamonds and gold of different colors only suitable for dolls of great fortunes and riches.
In addition to the notable differences in style, luxury Swiss watches are priced very differently. So you can find brands as diverse and relatively cheap as Omega and Viceroy compared to other more exclusive and expensive such as Rolex or Cartier without forgetting Breguet and many others. We mention these first brands because their price difference is like night and day. A Viceroy watch can cost around 600 euros and instead a Rolex 3,000 euros and up. If you really want something luxurious, you can easily spend 6,000 euros.

Without going into detail why they are priced and if they are really overrated, it must be said that most expensive Swiss watch brands design with precious metals and present their new handmade collections. Simply, if we calculated the price it takes for a person to make a miniaturized product such as a Swiss watch, we can realize part of the high price they have.
What to choose. Expensive or cheap models.
That is a question that only you can answer. The easiest thing is for you to ask yourself what you are really looking for.
The most affordable men's models have perfect features. Women's watches too. If you don't look at the Chopard Gran Turismo XL Mille Miglia Watch in Pink. It is perfect for both sexes. The only difference you can often find between Swiss luxury watches and some not excessively expensive are the manufacturing materials. If you do not want to spend more than 5,000 euros on you will surely have to settle for stainless steel or titanium. If you are a person who likes metals and precious stones, it will have to be much broader. Of course, if you decide to buy one, keep in mind if home insurance covers the theft of the luxury watch. This we do not usually think about but it is something very important.
As for the mechanics, the watches of about 4,000 euros are already good watches and their interior has little to envy to many more expensive ones. Obviously, the more you enter the exclusivity sector, the more design and fewer models equal to yours you will find on the street.
