Rankings In Progress

This list contains watch brands that are being analyzed for the rankings. Watch-Rankings.com analyzes the watch brands by researching the brand’s website, history, heritage and product catalog.  We research industry journals and blogs, consider where the watches are sold, read reviews and feedback on websites like Amazon or various internet boards.

We also factor in resale value on eBay or Chrono24. We take note of brands that attend and produce innovations at watch shows such as Baselworld

    Hi! I came across an awesome watch brand out of Australia called Creaux Automatiq and I would love to see the brand included in the rankings!

    • Admin says:

      Added Creux Automatiq (Australia) to the 1 star Entry Luxury Watches Other Countries category $500 – $1,500. Thanks for pointing it out!

    2/20/2022 I can’t seem to get to the rankings page. The google links and the links on the splash page all lead back to the splash page.

      Orient Star is a nice watch. Orient is one of the few brands that make their movements in-house which is respected in the watch world. The Star line has sapphire crystals and is a pretty good value watch. It’s questionable whether it is a watch that you would ever service vs just buy a new one.

      Negatives are that Orient is in the “Watches” category due to the multitude of other sub $500 watches. Having an Orient in public doesn’t screen “Luxury”. It screams “value” just like a Honda. If you like it then get it. Hope this helps
