5th grade is superior, 4th grade is luxury, 3rd grade is top-class luxury, 2nd grade is high-end, and 1st grade is Big 5. 좋은뉴스
Introducing the average selling price for each grade, luxury watches in grade 5 consist of products that can be purchased for less than 1 million won on average, and watches in grade 4 can be purchased for less than 10 million won on average, From level 3 onwards, it consists of products with at least 10 million won or more.
For your reference, luxury watches located in the first grade are priced in the billions of dollars, so you can think of them as the price of a house.
In conclusion, the ranking of luxury watch brands rises from 5 to 1, with Patek Philippe ranking first among all luxury watches and Casio last among luxury watch brands.
Last place in the ranking of watch brands (grade 5/superior)
At the bottom of the watch brand rankings are Frederick Constant, Mido, Oris, G-Shock, Citizen, Tissot, Seiko, Hamilton and Casio.
The watches located in Tier 5 barely make it into the luxury brand rankings, but they are actually more of a fashion watch than a luxury watch.
Although the price of models located in the 5th grade rises up to 1 million won in the case of expensive models, you can think of it as a popular watch brand class because there are many models that can be purchased in the 100,000 to 200,000 won range.
4th place in the watch brand ranking (4th grade/Luxury)
The top four watch brands are Rado, Tag Heuer, Longines, Tudor, Grand Seiko and Cartier.
Among the top four watch brands, Cartier and TAG Heuer are slightly higher.
Cartier’s popular model, Ballon Bleu Steel, is sold for 7 million won, and TAG Heuer’s popular model, Carrera Day Date, is sold for 4 million won. Compared to Rado, Longines, Tudor, and Seiko, you can think of Cartier and Tag Heuer as being more expensive.
Up to 4th place in the ranking of watch brands, the price range is at a level that can be purchased for the purpose of wedding gifts for ordinary office workers.
3rd place in the watch brand ranking (3rd class/top class luxury)
The top three watch brands are Rolex, Breitling, Panerai, IWC, Omega and Hublot.
From the 3rd place in the watch brand rankings, the price range is rather expensive for ordinary office workers to purchase. The price range is at least 10 million won or more.
Rolex and Omega, familiar luxury watch brands, are ranked 3rd in the watch brand rankings, and Rolex and Omega are mostly recognized as being of a similar level, but Rolex maintains its position as a watch brand that is one step above Omega. Rolex and Omega are perceived as eternal rivals.
2nd place in the watch brand ranking (2nd grade/high-end)
In second place in the watch brand rankings are Glashutte, Piaget, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Blancpain, Richard Mille and Roger Debus.
There are many Swiss-made watch brands in the second place in the watch brand rankings, such as Jaeger-LeCoultre and Roger Debus.
Since Rolex is highly valued in Korea, it may not be persuasive that makers such as Jaeger-LeCoultre and Roger Debus are ranked 2nd in the ranking of watch brands that are higher than Rolex.
However, in reality, Jaeger-LeCoultre and Roger Debus are sold at a much higher price than Rolex and are well-known brands around the world.
1st place in the watch brand ranking (1st grade / Big 5)
The top watch brands are Patek Philippe, Breguet, Audemars Piguet, Vaseron Constantin, and Arrange & Sohne.
Among the Big 5 watches, the ranks are clearly divided. Of these, Patek Philippe ranks highest and actually has the highest price point. For reference, a model with high rarity among Patek Philippe watches is priced at KRW 2 to 3 billion, which is similar to the price of one apartment in Seoul.
After Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet and Vaseron Constantin hold the position of In-Ja Lee, the luxury watch brand, and Breguet and Alan-Eunt Sohne are the third.
In conclusion, if we look at the order of luxury watches corresponding to the Big 5, it can be summarized as “Patek Philippe> Audemars Piguet, Vaseron Constantin> Breguet, Alane & Sohne”.
