There are many more expensive watch brands, but it is not certain who is the most expensive. After all, top watch brands are creating countless possibilities all the time. There are also those with over 100 million, and there are also many with tens of millions, such as Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin, Breguet, Blancpain, Cartier, Parmigiani Fleurier, Piaget, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Audemars Piguet, as well as Richard Mille, Jacques Droz, and Vanguard. Clerks & Arpels, Roger Dubuis, etc., these are the world's top watch brands, with prices ranging from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions.

Other brands also have many collections or limited editions. For example, Rolex once auctioned a watch worth over 100 million yuan; most styles are mass-produced, but some special styles have certain stories. , or complex craftsmanship, rare materials, etc., are affected by many factors to make certain watches unique, which also creates many classic and precious watches. It is also a style that many collectors are eager to collect.

There are many styles of super expensive watches, but most of them are still available at relatively suitable prices for consumers who like this brand, such as Vacheron Constantin and Patek Philippe, etc., with entry-level models costing around 100,000. , there are also expensive ones worth several million; Cartier and Jaeger-LeCoultre can be pocketed for just tens of thousands. But some brands have high overall prices, especially Richard Mille.

Richard Mille, the "entry ticket to billionaires", starts with hundreds of thousands, and most watches are priced in the millions. One or two hundred is ordinary. , six to seven hundred are common; the point is that it has gained the favor of many rich people and celebrities, and it can be said to be a standard equipment for rich people. Richard Mille's most expensive watch is tens of millions. Let's take a look at this RM056, a 10th anniversary commemorative model, which is still a manual mechanical watch. The public price is 1321 W. It is made of titanium alloy and the style is very beautiful.

How can a watch be without Vacheron Constantin? This superbly complex astronomical time "Ode to Music" watch is priced at 1,735 W. It has 19 complex functions and can display standard time, solar time, sidereal time, etc. kind of astronomical time. Inspired by the brand's own 1731 minute repeater movement, which is famous for its extreme thinness, it continues the brand's tradition of creating ultra-thin movements. It has been redesigned to incorporate astronomical complications, and the back is reminiscent of the vast starry night sky. , as bright and romantic as stars, and very artistic and beautiful.

When it comes to top-notch watches, the king of watches has to be Patek Philippe; it has always been the keeper of watch price records, the Patek Philippe 6300A-010 watch. This watch was held by Christie’s in 2019. At the 8th Only Watch charity auction, 31 million Swiss francs were sold, which is about RMB 300 million, making it the most expensive watch in history.

Many Patek Philippe watches have very high collection value and have been breaking auction house records. There are also Vacheron Constantin, Lange and Rolex, etc. There are also many collection watches, each of which is valuable. I can only say that poverty has limited my imagination. A watch can be a timepiece, a piece of jewelry, or a work of art. Only those who understand it and understand it can know its value. (Mumu Bipipi, picture cr network, infringement and deletion)

It is more appropriate to use the phrase "poverty limits my imagination" to describe watches. There are many watches at auctions every year. There are several ancient watches, most of which are limited editions from top brands that integrate top craftsmanship, precious materials and complex functions, especially pocket watches and clocks. Let’s not talk about these precious antiques today. Let’s talk about the most expensive watch brand currently. (Mainly the styles officially announced by the brand):

1.

Vacheron Constantin loft craftsmen, manual machinery, case, dial, crown, hands, hour markers, buckle are all Made of 18K pink gold, with hand-engraved patterns, crocodile leather strap, and hand-sewing.

It has more than a dozen complex functions such as minute repeater, perpetual calendar, and tourbillon. It has the Geneva mark. The movement contains 42 gems and K gold splints. Although the bottom is dense, the movement is beautifully polished. , a global limited edition, priced at 1935W.

2.

Franck Muller, automatic machine, 18K gold case, crocodile leather strap, integrating perpetual calendar, dual time zone, flyback, tourbillon and moon phase. A super complex functional model, the movement is also made of precious metals. The number of gems has reached 99. The entire movement is composed of 1483 parts. The brand has a short history and has a very high positioning. The public price is 2000W.

3.

Richard Mille, the ticket to billionaires, this brand also does not have a long history, but the price is super high, the entry-level is as high as 60W. With strong public relations capabilities coupled with obvious endorsements, its development process is almost impossible to replicate. The movement is provided by Audemars Piguet's movement factory and is made entirely of precious metals. The case is entirely made of sapphire.

This model is a 10th anniversary commemorative model. It is hollow and has a transparent back. It is a complex watch with large calendar, chronograph, rattrapante, power reserve, tourbillon and other functions. It is priced at 1330W.

4.

Piaget, Piaget has always been very strong in the field of watches, especially in the field of movements, and it is also a jeweler, so this watch is a strong alliance. Although it is a quartz watch, it is beautiful in shape, full of artistic flavor, and a top-notch luxurious visual feast. The case is made of 18K platinum and rose gold, and the 18K platinum bracelet is inlaid with 21 yellow diamonds and 141 diamonds. The price is 1600W.

5. Audemars Piguet, the Royal Oak has always been the biological son of Audemars Piguet, not to mention such a luxurious style. While retaining the connotation of the Royal Oak, the whole body is made of 18K white gold with detailed rectangular-cut diamonds, including the dial, The crown, strap, and buckle are all made of rectangular diamonds. The total weight of the diamonds exceeds 60 carats, and the price is 1,300W.

6.

Jacob, a self-produced movement, a hollow tourbillon model, the case and bracelet are combined, and the whole is composed of 239 diamonds. The total weight of the diamonds is about 260 carats. The price of the watch is 1800W, USD!

7. In comparison, Patek Philippe, the king of watches, does not have such luxurious styles (except for antique limited editions). I think this is also the spirit of Patek Philippe, which is always the first brother and never expensive for the sake of being expensive. , but to let you know that I am expensive, but you will feel that it is reasonable. Patek Philippe super complex function chronograph, 18K white gold diamond case, hand-sewn alligator leather strap, 18K gold buckle made of diamonds, the dial design is a beautiful northern hemisphere starry sky map, with 12 hand-embellished Constellation chart, this series’ unique stellar orbital tourbillon reads time, and the unparalleled minute repeater function shows you an emotional picture of the starry sky. Simple beauty is no longer enough to describe it. The price 300W.

8. German watches whose quality and development methods can be compared with PP - Lange chronograph, rattrapante, tourbillon, 18K gold case, hand-sewn alligator leather strap, solid gold dial with Hand-engraved, blue steel and gold-plated hands, self-produced movement, self-produced hairspring, bronze alloy balance wheel, priced at 395W.

In fact, there are millions or even tens of millions of models in the major top watches. I will not show them one by one here. Personally, I feel that their prices are entirely piled up by gems. This is my opinion. I don’t appreciate it (I’m too poor to appreciate it). What I like is like PP, which pursues the essence of a watch while giving it value. It’s never expensive for the sake of being expensive, it’s always expensive in a decent way. A watch is a work of art. It is a sophisticated work of art that can interact with the owner, rather than lifeless jewelry.

Because watch friends mentioned Patek Philippe’s sky-high price watches, I will say a few words here: Patek Philippe’s 175th Anniversary Watch is the most complicated watch to date, with 7 pieces in one piece, and one in existence. In the Patek Philippe Museum, the other 6 were acquired by Patek Philippe special VIPs and collectors. Please enjoy the Patek Philippe 5175

Since this watch is too complicated, I will not introduce it here. The amount of text introduced can be regarded as one. There is a paper, and interested friends can check it out. In addition, since Patek Philippe 5175 is not for sale, the total number is only 7 pieces, and there is no official price, so I didn’t plan to mention it originally;

Also One model is similar, the Patek Philippe 6002 Star and Moon Tourbillon, which is also super complicated, also has no official price, and has an annual output of two pieces

In addition to brand positioning, if it has some top-level complex functions (such as minute repeater, perpetual calendar , Tourbillon, etc.) or more diamonds, precious metals, etc., will also make the watch more valuable.
