Hello ALUXERS! Have you downloaded the ALUX App yet? alux.com/app The ALUX App is Officially Here! | ALUX Keynote 2022: th-cam.com/video/bd4uVm2AYuY/w-d-xo.html Have a look at our premium courses: courses.alux.com Reinvent Mastery: alux.com/reinvent
Cartier not being listed here is a big miss. Worn by countless executives and celebrities, even Gordon Gekko in Wall Street. I prefer the Cartier Tank, easily one of the most elegant watches ever made!
Alux is missing a few but first get rid of Hublot. Longines, Cartier, Omega, Breitling, Blancpain, Jaeger-LeCoultre deserve to be on that list way more then Hublot.
A few big misses here. Mentioning brand ambassadors as wearers by choice is a bit of a stretch. What happened to JLC, Breguet, Lange, Blancpain, Longines, Cartier, Journe, De Bethune, Chopard LUC, Zenith, UN but Hublot made the list? For that matter I put Nomos on the list above it. Disappointing
Would add Tag Heuer alongside Tudor and H. Moser&Cie. to more high level ones. Omega, JLC, Panerai and Breitling could have also made the list with Roger Dubuis as out of list honorable mention but I get that there is just as much as you can fit on these lists
My 2 cents. Hublot could be skipped 😂 but Omega, JLC, needed mention. Im truly disappointed Lange wasnt included and not covered in detail. The commentry on VC was also lacking. While Patek was marketed as a "million" dollar watch, VC was made to sound like it caps at the hundreds of thousands. In reality VC probably makes way more expensive watches for the ultra rich and doesnt even disclose their prices or customers which does surpass the millions. Thats what i love about the swiss in general. Their watches, and their privacy laws. Last, disappointed Lange wasnt included, i dont own a Lange but i would probably get one before i get a Patek.
I have a few issues with this video. 1) Where are Omega, Breguet, Jaeger Le-Coultre, Zenith, Urwerk, Richard Mille? All of those brands are highly prestigious and the fact that they weren’t mentioned in a video about watches as status symbols is baffling. 2) Vacheron, AP, and Patek could have been put into one category, seeing as how they all occupy the holy trinity in traditional watchmaking. Obviously it’s important to note the distinguishing characteristics between each brand and their most famous models, but to tier them sequentially is misleading. None of the three are objectively better than the other. IMO they’re all equally prestigious. 3) Why did you show a Breguet when you were talking about Hublot? 4) You mention Grand Seiko but didn’t even show any pictures of actual Grand Seikos. Instead you flipped through pics of more regular Seikos. Alux, I love your channel and I’ve been a fan of your content for years, but I gotta say this video doesn’t feel like your best work. Speaking as a watch enthusiast, I think a little more effort and research could have went into helping this video reach its true potential.
Seiko and Grand Seiko are different brands… They are conflated in the video. It’s like saying Tudor and Rolex are the same. Also left out Lange & Söhne and Richard Mille but maybe that’s too niche?
JLC, Lange, FP Journe out of the list, Seiko and GS classified as the same watch and Hublot making the list... really, Alux didn't make a proper research. Maybe they should watch some Tim Mosso videos. Lol.
I just loved Grand Seiko so much. Their watch faces always have a texture either inspired from the nature or the scenery around the factory itself. Handmade and always reliable just like their regular Seikos. (Too bad Alux didn't differentiate "Seiko" from "Grand Seiko" it's like Toyota and Lexus. Grand Seikos are much more meticulously assembled and produced in a different factory)
The only thing a Hublot tells about you is that you have more money than taste. Grand Seiko and Seiko shouldn’t even be mentioned in the same sentence; the former is an equivalent of Lange & Söhne or other brands for people with a refined taste and passion for watches who don’t care whether someone recognises their $15,000 timepiece, while the latter is a watch you can buy in every shopping mall and is comparable to Casio or Swatch. And yes, Tag Heuer could have been mentioned as what I’d see as a kind of entry level luxury watch (if that makes sense) - something that’s more likely than not a mechanical watch made in Switzerland that keeps its value yet you don’t have to spend a year on a waiting list before you buy one.
As for Rolex, especially the Submariner unfortunately becomes a watch of all kinds of influencers and celebrities who want to be seen wearing a luxury watch without knowing anything about watches so they buy the first one they can think of.
@@justinleomartin The Hublot part made me laugh and I can’t argue with that. I don’t dislike J&Co. they’re just not iconic. They’re too new but they have a few pieces I’d like. Id buy an Astronomia clock but wouldn’t wear one on my wrist because they’re enormous.
It takes a lot of thought to put together a short list like this. I think it’s appropriate omega and Cartier were not included, as well as JLC and A Lange.
Those are Omega tier watches pretending to be A Lange et Sohne level. Their finishing, similar to Omega, is only on parts that are visible through the display caseback. Real high end watches are hand finished completely, even on the main plate and below the gear train.
The fact that JLC, Cartier, Blancpain, Breguet, Bovet, A Lange Sohne, F. P. Journe aren't on this list. I'd rather wear a Zenith (very underrated brand) or Omega than the horrendous Hublot. Rolex is nice but the other brands are better than Rolex in terms of Horlogie. Rolex is like Apple or IPhone, it's wanted by those who've little knowledge about watches & see it as a the ultimate status symbol when it comes to watches. The oldest watch brand is Blancpain & not Vacheron Constantin. Vacheron Constantin is definitely also another underrated watch brand because social media has bombarded us with ugly Richard Mille, AP & Rolex
OMEGA Cartier and Brietling were are they in this poor list. My wealthy friend has an OMEGA tourbillon and i have OMEGA all gold planet ocean blue ceramics.
Load of BS 1. There are poor people that have a Rolex’s and AP’s. 2. There a wealthy people that only own a citizen or Casio. 3. If someone has 7 figure networth of $2,000,000 owning an $20K or $50k watch is CRAZY $1,000,000 - $2,000,000 net worth is not much these days. With a networth of 1m - 3m you are still watching every dollar.
Dude, not everyone is scared to spend money like you. You can be practical with your money and dress well while wearing a great watch. I'm worth more than million and growing rapidly but I spend my money as well. You have to stop and smell the roses... FBA/B1
Hublot is trash. If you don’t have class, wear this copycat-Mille or AP-wannabe. Alux, if you really know anything about watches, you should have mentioned JLC instead.
You know what's even better than collecting watches as you get richer? Not feeling the need to upgrade your lifestyle and impressing others with material possessions, freeing up much of one's own resources to bless others.
Info is wrong, Order is wrong, missed significant watches like Lange and the important independents. Of those you mentioned, the final order would be VC, Rolex, AP, Patek. Her voice is off relative to models discussed. This is the worst video Alux has put together.
VC Overseas 4500v is an extraordinary watch, way underrated when compared to AP 15510. In the world of Rolex and Ap, most of the time when I wear my 4500v, nobody recognize what it is and that’s a good thing. Some even keep staring at it and trying to figure out what kind of watch im wearing😂.
Sorry, but your timepiece is NOT a tell all. I know a number of rich folks who don't even wear them. Cell phones tell the time just as well. Wristwatches are going the way of high button shoes and buggy whips.
I know wealthy people as well....and they wear VERY expensive watches. They don't wear them around YOU because they don't consider you their peer. FBA/B1
If you're military you might have swapped out your Gshock for your Garmin for the utility but paradoxically collectors covet the issued watch you stole.
Poor video. Alux mentioned Seiko and Grand Seiko as if they were the same, and also compared Seiko and GS to Tudor (not to say that they used an image of an affordable Seiko GPS to describe Grand Seiko, lol). Hublot is one of the no-go alternatives for a person who understands and appreciates watches. JLC, the watchmaker of the watchmakers, being left off the list (when Hublot is there) is another huge mistake.
This list is highly debatable- Cartier is Top 2 in the world but why is it not mentioned? Casio should not have been here since it contradicts with the title of this video. So thumbs down Alux!
Rolex is like the Timex of Luxury watches. Daily driver. If you collect there are many brands beside the ones mentioned here out there that are high quality and collectible. Nice subset presented here😊
So inaccurate at all, even you mixed a picture of Hublot with Breguet... Terrible... ¿Didn't recall Grand Seiko but instead you mentioned Seiko as it?... Don't, please. You have not a clue of the topic you used.

No bonus for making it till the end? @alux
where is panerai there like the hublot but with class
JLC and Omega deserved a mention over Hublot
Hublot needs to be there but Omega needed to be on this list for sure..just below Rolex.
@@manoftomorrow5987 Nico I would like a word with you lol. #pride&pinion
Disagree and I hate hublot..... if you would have mentioned Cartier you had a point
@@everythingautomotiveeta5839what’s wrong with Hublot. I’m just curious.
This is a list made for watch snobs, which only are interested what status a watch will project over them if they own it.
Cartier not being listed here is a big miss. Worn by countless executives and celebrities, even Gordon Gekko in Wall Street. I prefer the Cartier Tank, easily one of the most elegant watches ever made!
Agree
Back in the day.
I love Cartier, but it is a fashion brand. Maybe that’s why it didn’t make this admittedly abbreviated list.
The omission of Omega from this list is unforgivable
No one really purchased Omega because of the price range. There are better options. Let's be honest. Great watch but most go with Tudor over Omega.
Understand that there are so many brands to talk about. I would say not including A.Lange & Sohne is an omission
Alux is missing a few but first get rid of Hublot. Longines, Cartier, Omega, Breitling, Blancpain, Jaeger-LeCoultre deserve to be on that list way more then Hublot.
100% agree.
I feel like Longines should’ve been mentioned just after Tissot. But that’s my 2 cents. ✌🏼
A few big misses here. Mentioning brand ambassadors as wearers by choice is a bit of a stretch. What happened to JLC, Breguet, Lange, Blancpain, Longines, Cartier, Journe, De Bethune, Chopard LUC, Zenith, UN but Hublot made the list? For that matter I put Nomos on the list above it. Disappointing
“Hublot watches are nothing short of eye catching.”
That’s a nice way of saying they’re ugly monstrosities that scream “look at me!”
Would add Tag Heuer alongside Tudor and H. Moser&Cie. to more high level ones. Omega, JLC, Panerai and Breitling could have also made the list with Roger Dubuis as out of list honorable mention but I get that there is just as much as you can fit on these lists
Modern Tags are garbage.
Oh yeah. You mentioned some good ones that should have been on the list.
My 2 cents. Hublot could be skipped 😂 but Omega, JLC, needed mention. Im truly disappointed Lange wasnt included and not covered in detail. The commentry on VC was also lacking. While Patek was marketed as a "million" dollar watch, VC was made to sound like it caps at the hundreds of thousands.

Thats what i love about the swiss in general. Their watches, and their privacy laws. Last, disappointed Lange wasnt included, i dont own a Lange but i would probably get one before i get a Patek.
FYI Seiko and Grand Seiko are two different companies. Look into the amazing history of the GS. You'll be glad you did.
A. Lange, JLC, Cartier. There’s a lot better options than the ones presented…but the list is acceptable.
Not acceptable if you omit omega
Vacheron Constantin would be my pick for a daily watch. It's always nice to look at haha.

And the zodiac.
But remembered apple watch 😂

Fp Journe too!

Completely bias but Citizen is a good entry and Omega shoulda got a mention.
No Cartier. No Jaeger-LeCoultre.
But 🍎 watch is there 😅😅

(In no particular order) Top 3 Snubs:
1) Omega (James Bond doesn't approve, and neither do I)
2) JLC
3) Breguet
Richard Mille?
Jacob & Co?
Breguet?
Omega?
Cartier?
JLC?
Apple watch is not a watch. Its a computer. Real lovers of horology would agree.
How did Richard mille miss out of this??🤔😒
😂 bc they’re overrated and extravagant 😂
Omega and Panerai shpuld have been on the list...
Seiko should be placed before Tudor, since Tudor and Rolex are just like what Audi is for Porsche !!! Also Tudor is more expensive than Seiko.
Hublot?🤨Hublot??????🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨 Really?
Total over priced garbage.
@@bngr_bngr
To be fair, that's every luxury watch.
@@MayTheSchwartzBeWithYou not a Rolex.
@@bngr_bngr Especially a Rolex.
Surprised no mention of Richard Mille in this video
Apple watch seriously ??? ...a true watch enthusiast doesn't even consider it a watch
Guess Alux is getting desperate for content. Up next - coffee mugs of the rich and famous. 🙄
They completely forgot about two iconic watch brand
Jaeger- Lecoultre & Jacob & Co
Lol, Jacob and Co isn’t iconic. They were founded in the 80’s.
@@kristianFL they deserve a spot in the list, considering they gave a spot for shit watch Hublot.
@@justinleomartin The Hublot part made me laugh and I can’t argue with that. I don’t dislike J&Co. they’re just not iconic. They’re too new but they have a few pieces I’d like. Id buy an Astronomia clock but wouldn’t wear one on my wrist because they’re enormous.
What an amazing video!! I even don’t know some of the brands.
It takes a lot of thought to put together a short list like this. I think it’s appropriate omega and Cartier were not included, as well as JLC and A Lange.
Credor or Grand Seiko for me

Except from investing in elite watches I find them useless in a modern world
As a baker, a dive watch is an essential tool.
Vacheron constantin ❤❤❤
Your right now I'm getting more into watches!
OMEGA Cartier and Brietling were are they in this poor list. My wealthy friend has an OMEGA tourbillon and i have OMEGA all gold planet ocean blue ceramics.
Stopped watching when
Seiko is mentioned and not Cartier.
Load of BS

Hublot is trash. If you don’t have class, wear this copycat-Mille or AP-wannabe. Alux, if you really know anything about watches, you should have mentioned JLC instead.
Unforgivable that they missed the watchmakers watch brand
You miss Cartier. The watch I use
Jlc, omega, Als, H Moser, Glasshute, Fpj
How you guys going to put hublot over omega? Hublot is no where near the level of omega.
Get Hublot outta there! At Cartier, Omega and A.Lang.
WHAT HAPPEN TO BITCOIN ALUX!?

What?? No Timex??😢😢
No RICHARD MILLE???

Exactly.
The richer I get, the less pressure I feel to show off.
@@MayTheSchwartzBeWithYou
A few people knows it and you are ( probably ) one of them.

More power alux 💜
I thought they were going to circle back around to Casio for the centibillionaires.
Low researched video. Hublot *dies inside*

Careful with images of your watches, you included a Breguet Marine within the Hublot description

Wearing a Hublot is a statement which goes like this: i am rich,but i have no taste.
No Hublot
Omega, Breguet, Tag Heuer, and Ulysses Nardin are glaring omissions
Apple watch is not a watch, is just a device that shows time amongst other
