A list of watches that some of the world's top watch manufacturers think make the cut.
Stephen Urquhart, President of Omega SA (Worldwide)
Naturally I am partial to Omega. I love the Speedmaster. It has such a unique history due to its association with NASA. I cherish my Seamaster Planet Ocean because it associates our legacy with a contemporary flair. The Hour Vision is a new watch with DNA from our past housing a new movement. It's an exceptional watch that celebrates the value of good craftsmanship. The constellation Double Eagle Men's watch is also one of my favourites.
Bernard Richards, Founder and CEO, Bernard Richards Manufacturing (BRM)
I admire Rolex for its simplicity and quality of realisation, Bell and Ross for its innovative design, De Witt for its shapes, and components such as complications, Jaeger Le Coultre Reverso for its simplicity, and BRM because our watches are all different and out of the ordinary. The BRM Birotor, for instance, is the most finished mechanical movement. The BRM R50T is the first movement in a shape of a motorbike engine while the BRM MT represents a F1 V8 engine.
Alain Silberstein, CEO, Alain Silberstein
I think that Swatch Skin, Tissot T-Touch, Seiko Kinetic, FP Journe Sonnerie Souveraine, H Moser & Cie Perpetual 1 and Breguet Reine de Naples are watches that make the cut.
Bernard R. Fleury, Chairman, Vulcain
I would rank the following seven watches I consider as master complications in the order of one for each day of the week: the Vulcain Imperial Gong, Patek Philippe Sky Moon Tourbillon, Franck Muller Evolution 3, Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Grand Complication, Philippe Dufour Grande et Petite Sonnerie, FP Journe Sonnerie Souveraine and Parmigiani Fleurier Tecnica Sorba.
Haissam Chamsine, Vice President, BinHendi Jewellery
Some of my personal favourite watch brands include Audemars Piguet, Panerai, Breitling, Ulysse Nardin and Jacob & Co.
