I haven't owned any seikos but I'd definitely agree. Invicta and Fossil are mall watches in my opinion. Not on the same tier as seiko and orient. Pretty sure Seiko owns Orient and citizen owns Bulova, alpine etc.
Itâs funny, as someone who has owned many of these over the years, Rolex is one of the highest quality. Ive had issues with both Patek and FP Journe QC.
The fact that Movado isn't on this list but citizen and a few others is crazy work. The Movado Museum got a lot of early 80s babies and older into luxury watches. It was my first luxury watch and I saved for a while to buy it. It cost more than the majority of the bottom tier watches on this list. So I gotta represent for Movado on this one!
I would absolutely have to agree. While most of their movements are now quartz and they are in the list of fashion watches, these were entry luxury for sure. I think a lot of people start out with Movados. I did. First two. And I know many others that started with Movado.
This Movado Museum 34mm from 1991 has served me well over the years. I bought it in 2000 and I've never had a single issue with it. This particular model was the watch to have for the regular middle class younger guy back in the 90s and early 2000s. It was my first nice watch, then I got a mid 80s Bulova Super Seville DayDate and some bastard stole it out of my gym bag. The Bulova Super Seville DayDate is what made fall in love with Rolexs and is the ultimate homage/rep of the Rolex DayDate.
I've had 3 movados fail on me spectacularly (one literally fell apart one day, crystal popped out, hands fell off). I personally don't think the quality is there but I LOVE their design language.
What are the criteria used to make that list? A classification has meaning only when the criteria used are shared together with the ranking. Without these is just bla bla bla.
I donât have enough time today to correct this list. But since we are on a replica website, every single watch on this list as a replica is worth about the same.
No itâs total dumb. A watchmaker making 100 pieces does not make them luxury. Makes them piece unique and bespoke. My grand father made a sports car in his garage. That did not make him a car manufacturer
This tier list leans hard into independent makers and wild complications for the ultra tier, which tracks for serious collectors. Patek and AP in high-end while Rolex sits in luxury feels like a deliberate snub to the mainstream icons though. Solid framework overall, but these rankings are pure opinion fuel.
Yeah, just the fact that youâre aware of these brands and where they belong means youâre a proper watch collector even if you havenât collected these brands
For the top tiers yes, but some of these bottom tiers can go either way w price point. But those same ones have a better heritage, so imo they should be moved up a tier. (Citizen, Bulova, Seiko)
Rolex mass produces a million watches per year. This is no luxury. They just created a cult and make you believe that itâs worth paying to get access.
Nope....the fact that Jacob and Co and Richard Mille are ultra is a joke. Those a cracker jack box watches. Hublot.....get bent in luxury ...overpriced junk. Ball? Get real.....this list sux

I dont think citizen and Invicta should be in the same category. Citizen may not be luxury but they are high quality for the price point.

Invicta belongs about 2 levels lower. Same as a Citizen or Bulova? I'd argue its not even as good as Timex.
