Feature: 5 luxury watches that are cheaper than you think
Ever lusted over a luxury watch, say a Patek Philippe or a Rolex, but found it was way out of your price range? Well, we have some good news for you, some of these luxury watches may well be a bit cheaper than you think. We’ve rounded up five models from five great, popular watchmakers that will offer you quality watchmaking for less.
Omega DeVille Co-Axial 424.13.40.20.02.001
The first brand to get one of its watches worn up on the moon, Omega has a lot to offer. Although the De Ville isn’t the same model—i.e., the Omega Speedmaster—that was worn by Buzz Aldrin during the 1969 moon landings it is still a classic Omega dress watch with Co-Axial escapement technology, and for less than £3k pre-owned it’s a true steal.
Nomos Glashütte Club 737
Hailing from Germany’s watchmaking capital, Glashütte, Nomos first appeared in 1990, just a year after the collapse of the Berlin Wall. This Nomos model, then, offers a unique modern design—signature to the brand—as well as an in-house manual-wind movement. Get this watch and you’ll have a slice of quality Glashütte watchmaking and design for a brilliant price—what more could you want?
Patek Philippe Gondolo 5010
Ok, so while a Patek Philippe watch may still be out of many of our budgets, it’s still pretty rare to find one for a four-figure sum, and that’s exactly how much this pre-owned Gondolo is going for. With a rose gold case and bezel, white dial and black leather strap, this Gondolo features a tried-and-tested colourway that is perfect for every occasion—as well as flaunting a standard small seconds sub dial at 6 o’clock.
Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control
Jaeger-LeCoultre is a popular brand, one that’s held in good stead across the watch industry and beyond. This Master Control offers a stunning automatic JLC for a less than £4k. Its minimalist design features a sturdy steel case which perfectly complements the white dial and black leather strap. The date window at 3 o’clock makes a handy addition to this understated piece.
Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date 15200
Getting a Rolex watch for under £5,000 is pretty rare these days, even if it’s pre-owned. Well, this Oyster Perpetual offers just that, making the crown somewhat affordable at £4,950. This understated Oyster Perpetual is perfect for both men and women with its simplistic silver dial and steel case and bracelet. What’s not to love?
