Title: Luxury watch brands that you will never add to your collection
Post by: Yikkie on February 05, 2015, 09:06:32 PM
Everyone have different tastes and preferences for their watches.   Just for a little bit of fun, what are the 3 luxury watch brands that you will never consider for your collection?  Here are mine:
1) Breitling
2) Hublot
3) Romain Jerome

It depends very much upon your definition of a Luxury Brand?

Good question. In theory all watches are considered  luxury these days since the advent of handphones.  So, to be more specific, by luxury watch brands, I was referring to purveyors of fine mechanical and quartz watches, excluding the typical "fashion"  brands such as CK, DKNY, Fossil, etc. So, it could be anything from a Longines to Panerai to Patek to Dufour.

I sure hope that this will be a peaceful discussion and not turn into a flame war.   :P
I will just share 3 names that don't quite speak to me, with elaborating
1. Hublot
2. B&R
3. Pxxxxxx
Strictly due to my lifestyle and personal preference. Nothing against their supporters

I will never say never. Normally I will try out the watches from different brands. If it does not sing to me, I move them on and try another brand. That being said, I have not felt the urge to try a Hublot as of yet. Another brand which does not really sing to me is Roger Dubuis.

I used to think Chopard is more of a fashion watch but I'm growing fond of the LUC range. I like Breitling too especially the older ones, so am quite surprised to see it listed couple of times here.

My pick would be:

1) Corum
2) Bulgari
3) Jaquet Droz

Rather than say which ones I won't add to my collection... I'll list the ones I will add:

- Lange
- Patek
- Vacheron
- Rolex
- JLC
- IWC
- Omega

Itu saja. Any other brand does not interest me as much.

Strictly due to my lifestyle and personal preference. Nothing against their supporters

What is number 3?

Agreed. At the right price, I will consider most brands.
However, the B&R and Panerai prices are very far off from my "willing to pay" price

Piaget
Frank Muller
Maurice Lacroix
The 1st & 2nd are great watches but it just doesn't suit me somehow.
For the 3rd, it is somehow over priced Swiss watch. Just my own opinion...
Cheers
