Not only are they the oldest continuously operating watch brand in the world, but they're also the makers of the most complicated (and second-most complicated) watch ever made. Regarded as part of the "Holy Trinity" along with Audemars Piguet and Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin's dressy watches are among the best out there. But from a sales/hype perspective, watch fans want to see steel sports watches--and the Overseas was Vacheron's only offering in that department until now. For 2025, Vacheron Constantin unleashed a stainless steel version of their beloved 222 model, ref. 4200H/222A-B934. Here's what you should know about the steel Vacheron 222.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

Send us a textAside from the Tank, the Santos is arguably Cartier's most recognizable watch. It features many of the brand's most enduring design codes, such as a square-shaped case with gently rounded corners and screws dotting the bezel. Dating back to the early 1900s, the Santos is also one of Cartier's longest-produced collections and is often regarded as the first men's wristwatch. It debuted during an era when pocket watches were the go-to timekeeping devices for gentlemen. It's an important model, not just for Cartier but for watchmaking as a whole. Let's unpack the Cartier Santos history and explore some of the collection's most influential models.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

Send us a textWith all the hysteria around the Patek Philippe Cubitus (good and bad), we thought now would be a good time to have a look at some other square watches. While round designs dominate watchmaking, the appeal of a square watch lies in its bold geometry and distinctive character. Square timepieces, like the Cartier Santos or TAG Heuer Monaco, offer exciting alternatives to more traditional round cases. So, if you're on board with being square and need to look at something else other than the Cubitus, let's get a closer look at some top square watches.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

And we're not talking about unknown companies either; big watch brands have plenty of choices that won't break the bank. So if you're looking for a top-notch watch — whether a diver, chronograph, GMT, dress, or GADA — that's relatively easy on the wallet, here are some of the best under $5000 luxury watches to consider.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

Titanium Grand Seiko watches are some of their most popular models, but the types of titanium alloys they've used can be confusing. There are actually only two: "high-intensity titanium" and the newer and costlier "Brilliant Hard Titanium," with an exceptional hardness rating. You may hear these alloys called by different names, however, so in this episode, we'll give you a quick coherent breakdown of the titanium Grand Seiko lineup over the years.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

While value might not be a priority for everyone, it certainly adds to the appeal of buying a coveted Cartier watch. We always caution to buy what you love because you love it, and not as an investment, but all other things being equal, we think it's better to fall in love with a watch that holds its value, rather than one that depreciates immediately. Historically, Cartier watches tend to hold their value long-term. However, several factors determine exactly how well timepieces from the legendary Maison hold their value or even appreciate, including demand, materials used, and current fashion trends. If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

The short answer to the question “Are Omega watches a good investment?” (aside from “don't buy a watch as an investment”) is that most of them will take a hit when bought new, but they do generally retain their value well when bought secondhand–and the most popular models can certainly increase in value. Maybe the increases won't be as meteoric as with some Rolexes, but Omega has been making some great watches in recent years and collectors have noticed. We never recommend buying watches strictly as an investment vehicle, but it's sensible to consider value and collectability when making a luxury watch purchase. With that in mind, we've made a list of ten of the most investment-worthy Omega watches.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

Although it didn't start out that way, in recent years, the Rolex Daytona has grown to become the most sought-after luxury chronograph. As a result, Daytona watches are almost impossible to find at Rolex authorized dealers and command hefty premiums on the secondary market. Whether you already own a Daytona and want something else or are waiting for the right time to buy one, plenty of other luxury chronograph watches are available that offer similar designs to Rolex's flagship chronograph . With that in mind, we've compiled a list of what we think are the best Rolex Daytona alternative watches. Note, these Daytona alternatives are not necessarily less expensive. To keep things in the luxury realm, we've only picked premium chronograph watches made by other high-end watch brands.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

The most emblematic of all Rolex models, the Datejust has been a mainstay of the brand since 1945. Today, the Datejust is one of Rolex's most varied collections, available in a vast assortment of materials and colors, in addition to a range of dials, bezels, and bracelets. Regardless of the specific style, what defines a Datejust is its date window at 3 o'clock, always topped with a Cyclops lens to magnify the date. If you're looking for a watch similar to the Datejust, then you're in luck -- there are plenty of options from other luxury watch brands. In this episode, we're giving you a rundown of the best Rolex Datejust alternative watches, which are not necessarily less expensive but always solid choices.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

If you're considering buying a pre-owned Rolex, your first thought is likely "How do I spot a fake Rolex?" Counterfeit Rolexes are notoriously common, and they're only getting more and more accurate. While it's almost impossible to spot the most advanced modern fake Rolexes without examining them closely in person, the vast majority of fakes will have tells that can be spotted if you're aware of some fundamentals. "How do I tell if a Rolex is fake?" is a question that doesn't have a short, conclusive answer, but we'll try to make it less daunting. So without further ado, here's our updated guide to spotting a fake Rolex.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

When it comes to Rolex prices, there is a difference between retail price and actual market price for many of their watches. Their hottest models, like the steel Daytona and Pepsi GMT, are notorious for selling far above the manufacturer's suggested retail prices (MSRP) on Rolex's website. The gap has been closing a bit since 2022, though. Many of the more common Rolexes, such as Datejusts with standard dials and smooth bezels, now sell secondhand for retail price or even less. But turquoise Oyster Perpetuals, titanium Yacht-Masters, and Le Mans Daytonas still sell for huge premiums. Even Datejusts with popular options like palm motif or mint green fluted motif dials often sell for thousands above list.So why is there such a difference between retail and market prices for Rolex watches? The short answer: because of the gap between supply and demand. Demand for Rolex is still extremely high, and the Rolex supply chain can't simply create an additional million watches by flipping a switch. If you're listening to this episode, you're probably aware of the infamous Rolex waiting list – there simply aren't enough new Rolex watches for sale in the primary market to keep up with demand. This has paved the way for a robust secondary market of grey market dealers selling Rolex watches.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

There is no single clear metric to define the most expensive watch brand. You can look at the price of brands' most expensive watches, their least expensive watches, or an estimate of their average sale price. Most of the world's most expensive watch brands are old and well-established. But there are also a growing number of stunning independent watch brands with a cost of entry over $50,000 even for a basic three-hand watch, and complicated pieces priced well into six figures. All in all, we think there are 15 brands you should know about when it comes to discussing the most expensive watch brands in the world.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

While many "affordable luxury" brands like Longines, Frederique Constant, Oris and Zodiac are doing genuinely cool stuff these days, in this article I'll focus on "true" luxury watches from premium brands like Rolex, Omega, Grand Seiko and Breitling. If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

According to the Federation of the Swiss watch industry (FH), Switzerland produces around 15 to 20 million watches a year — which is a minuscule amount that represents around 2% of global timepiece manufacturing. However, this is a clear case of quality over quantity. This tiny nation, as reported by the news outlet SWI swissinfo, commands more than a 50% share of the global watch industry in value terms, and more than 95% of watches sold for CHF 1,000 (just over USD $1,100) or more are produced by Swiss companies. Translation: Switzerland dominates when it comes to the luxury segment of the watch market. Watch enthusiasts recognize the cachet of the Swiss-made label, and the country reigns supreme when it comes to fine timepieces. So, if Switzerland dominates the luxury watch segment, which luxury watch brands dominate within that prestigious circle? Listen to this episode to discover the top 10 luxury watch brands, as told by the numbers.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

At retail, current Rolex Sky-Dweller prices range from $15,850 to $54,000. Due to strong demand, you can expect to pay over $16,000 for even the most affordable pre-owned variants. In 2024, market prices for solid gold Sky-Dwellers are starting to settle just around retail for most configurations, although the hottest dials still bring big premiums. And despite much hubbub about the watch industry cooling off, even two-tone Sky-Dwellers continue to sell well at full list price. This Rolex Sky-Dweller price guide episode compares retail and market prices for every variant, both current and discontinued.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

One of the most memorable gold Rolex releases in recent years was 2023's white gold Le Mans Daytona, celebrating the famous racetrack's 100th anniversary. Featuring a 24-hour totalizer instead of the Daytona's typical 12-hour one, and the infamous "Paul Newman" subdial typeface, the Le Mans Daytona was also special because of its exhibition caseback--something Rolex had previously only put on the platinum Daytona and Cellini Prince. For 2024, Rolex quietly replaced it with an otherwise identical yellow gold Le Mans Daytona, and it's one of the hottest watches of the year.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

The Oyster Perpetual is the cheapest model in the Rolex catalog today, but it's not easy to get from an authorized dealer without waiting. A new no-date Submariner costs less than $10,000 brand new from an authorized dealer, but it still has waitlists too. You can expect some Rolex models to be available for sale upon walking into a Rolex store, unlike in, say, 2022--but usually just Datejusts and gold models. We'll talk about ten of the cheapest (worthwhile) Rolex models that you can actually buy now, both new and used.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

As watch fans, we tend to attribute designs and innovations to certain brands. But when it comes to truly groundbreaking high-end complicated watch movements, there are a small number of individual elite watchmakers at the top doing most of the actual inventing. David Candaux is among that elite. If you're into luxury watches, you might have heard of watches like the MB&F HM6 Space Pirate or the Jaeger-LeCoultre Hybris Mechanica à Grande Sonnerie, even if you didn't know David Candaux was involved. Since 2017, he's been putting his efforts into his own brand, and D. Candaux watches are getting plenty of deserved attention in the over-$200,000 segment.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

There are plenty of hot takes online about how hard it is to buy a Rolex, and all the "games" that Rolex authorized dealers supposedly play, and indeed the luxury watch market was pretty wild from 2021-2022. But nowadays, buying a Rolex really isn't that hard--only a handful of models are truly "impossible" for non-VIP shoppers to buy at an authorized dealer. Most references are obtainable with a bit of a wait, and if you'd like to skip that wait--or get one of those hard-to-get models--there are plenty of trusted online grey market dealers to buy from as well. We'll quickly explain how to buy a Rolex in 2024.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

Rolex Day-Date prices start at $36,500 for a 36mm version and $40,100 for a 40mm version when purchased brand new from an authorized dealer at retail prices. However, the retail prices of a Day-Date, also known as a Rolex President watch, can quickly increase from there depending on the case and bracelet materials, as well as the use of diamonds. What's more, prices of pre-owned Rolex Day-Date watches vary wildly on the secondary market with factors such as age, condition, style, and materials all impacting the overall cost. For instance, the cost of an older secondhand Day-Date President in yellow gold can start as low as $8,000 (with leather straps) and $10,000 (with bracelets) while a highly collectible platinum Day-Date with an ice-blue dial and numbers written in Arabic can cost over $100,000.Listen to this episode for all the details and prices.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

As the popularity of luxury watches surged in the past few years, demand for many Rolex models far outstripped supply. Many customers were quoted years-long wait times on the infamous Rolex waiting list. Some authorized Rolex dealers wouldn't even add any more names to the list–if they kept one at all. But in 2024, the Rolex waiting list is becoming a bit less crazy. In this episode we cover everything you know need to know about how to get on a Rolex waiting list.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

For the first time since the Aquanaut was released in 1997, Patek Philippe has unveiled an entirely new men's product line: the Cubitus. Patek Philippe CEO Thierry Stern told customers in 2023 to expect a brand new line of watches by 2024, and this is it: a watch that looks like a Nautilus, but more cube-ish–as the name suggests. Three Cubitus variants have been released to start: a time-and-date model with a bracelet (available in both steel or two-tone) and a platinum moonphase big-date model. The Cubitus was unveiled at a private Patek Philippe event in Munich on October 17, 2024. In this episode, we discuss the details. If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

The watch world's biggest award show just wrapped up and we have a new slate of this year's winning watches to admire. For those who aren't familiar with the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG), it's essentially the Oscars of the watch industry where nominated timepieces are selected as "Best Chronograph," "Best Men's Watch," "Most Iconic," and so on. The biggest prize of the night, however, is the "Aiguille d'Or Grand Prix," which rewards the best overall timepiece among all categories. While most of the categories are self-explanatory, it's worth pointing out that the "Challenge Prize" is awarded to exceptional watches with a retail price equal to or under CHF 3,000 whereas the “Petite Aiguille” award goes to watches with a retail price between CHF 3,000 and CHF 10,000. With that in mind, let's get to the winning watches of GPHG 2024.If you like what you're listening to please let us know!

Get access to the full episode on our Substack: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/ben-clymer Aarron fell down a rabbit hole when the Apple Watch came out. He knew nothing about watches, their design history and the immense investment of human effort it's taken to engineer accurate timepieces until he bought an Apple Watch. He loves wearing a watch, but notifications and tracking caused him to abandon it for something simpler and mechanical. Anyone curious about watches will inevitably end up at Hodinkee.com, the premier publication about watches and the rich culture around them. Hodinkee was founded by Ben Clymer, who found his way into watches when his grandfather gave him the Omega watch right off his wrist. It sparked not only a deep passion for watches, but a company that has built a community of enthusiasts around the world. You might be thinking, watches are a strange topic for Design Better to cover. But they represent a beautiful intersection of design and technology that has been pursued for centuries. They're also one of the few trans-generational objects in our lives that connect us with the people we love, as Ben Clymer shared with us in our conversation. We spoke with Ben about consulting with Jony Ive on Apple's watch design, Jony's deep dive into horology, how Ben went about creating such a compelling content brand, and his journey from being a founder and CEO back to being an individual contributor to the company he started. Bio Benjamin Clymer is widely considered to be a leading voice in the wristwatch industry. He is regularly quoted in major publications including The New York Times, Reuters, Forbes, Departures, GQ, and the Financial Times, and was dubbed “The High Priest of Horology” by The New York Times in 2013. Benjamin has acted as a consultant and guest speaker for Apple, and was named to “The Hypebeast Hundred” as one of the 100 most important influencers in global culture in both 2013 and 2014.  *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This is a premium episode on Design Better (learn more in the announcement here).

On this week's Worn & Wound podcast, final podcast of 2023, Zach Kazan chats with Chris Antzoulis, one of the website's newest contributors, about some of his recent work. In addition to being a watch collector, Chris has a background in comics, which made him incredibly well suited to chat with comic book legend Adam Kubert recently about his new collaboration with Citizen and Marvel, which feels like a major crossover moment between two enthusiast worlds. Chris also developed the concept behind “Watches and What Else,” a series that examines the “other” interests of watch collectors, always looking for ways watch collecting connects to other pursuits. If you haven't checked out “Watches and What Else” yet, we've linked the series to this point in the show notes below.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.

Called "a poem in clockwork," the self-winding Breguet watch made for Marie Antionette was meant to be the most beautiful example of mechanical art in the world. Yet when she was imprisoned in the Tour du Temple, she wanted only a simple watch that would mark the passing of the hours until her meeting with the guillotine. Listen as Rebecca Struthers, the watchmaker, antiquarian horologist, and author of the Hands of Time talks with EconTalk's Russ Roberts about how our need to keep time has shaped watchmaking history, and how, in turn, the development of watches has shaped human culture and society. Other topics include the precise and painstaking craft of bespoke watchmaking and the challenge of restoring watches from another time.
