Exclusive and luxury watches: 12 brands

Movado Group, a company that designs, sources, markets and distributes quality watches worldwide, ranked 12 exclusive and luxury watches.

The largest markets for watches are North America, Europe, Latin America, and Asia.

Movado divides the watch market into five main categories, as set forth below.

Exclusive watches

Exclusive watches are often made of precious metals, including 18-karat gold or platinum, and are often set with precious gems.

Mostly, these watches are mechanical or analog quartz watches.

Mechanical watches keep time with intricate mechanical movements consisting of an arrangement of wheels, jewels, and winding and regulating mechanisms.

Quartz analog watches have quartz movements in which the time is precisely calibrated to the regular frequency of vibration of the quartz crystal.

The exclusive watches are almost entirely made in Switzerland.
