Collection models of Swiss watches
Swiss watches have long ceased to be a simple functional accessory. It is a luxury, sealed in a long history, a symbol of impeccable taste and refinement. Today, the possession of an “eternal” mechanism from one of the well-known Swiss brands is a demonstration of wealth, success and, of course, an excellent sense of taste.
But pricing in the collections of models of Swiss watches is influenced not only by the reputation of a particular brand but also by the persistent, uncompromising quality of the mechanism, the mathematical accuracy of the course and the uniquely selected materials. So, on the example of the popular model Ulysse Nardin Freak, we can see that the watch is made of pink gold, and the bracelet is made of natural wear-resistant leather. This combination, combined with high-precision mechanical filling and perfect design, determine the fact that even used watches have a value of 49 thousand dollars.

Here we will also attribute the legendary collection “Titanic-DNA”, the uniqueness of which is the content of the watch movements of the parts of the sunken Titanic.
