The world Top 10 most expensive watches

Everyone loves to have a nice stylish watch on their wrist, however how much are people willing to pay for one? Here at Give and Take we have been looking into the world’s most expensive watches and we want to share what we have found out for you!

Number 10: So to start off our top 10 list we have the Brequet Pocket watch 1970.This is a rather a stylish pocket watch however can be seen as being vintage and a little out dated, but we love it! This great watch is hand engraved and has a silver clock face, which shows the perfection of the makers. To add the finish touch to the watch it has a gold chain and pin on the end to attach it onto what you are wearing. This watch comes in at costing $734,000. A little pricey, but don’t forget we are only at the bottom of our list!

Number 9: Number 9 on our list is the Blancpain1735 Grande Complication. This magnificent watch speaks for its self.  As you can see the mechanical works of the watch are not being hidden, they are actually open, this adds to the wow factor of the watch and makes it that tad bit more unique. This watch has also been referred to as a piece of art, as some of the parts of the watch have been crafted from 18 karat gold! This watch is sure to make an impact when wearing it and costs $800,000. 

Number 8: The next watch is called the Louis Moinet Magistralis and this has found its way onto our list due to its amazing materials, which it is made from. This watch is so magnificent that it contains genuine pieces of meteorite which was found on the moon itself! It also has an interesting perpetual calendar mechanism; however would you be willing to pay $860,000 for it? 

Number 7: Next is the Hublot Black Caviar worth $1 million! This watch would be any man’s dream, with its unique design. This masterpiece has 18 karats of white gold embellished with black diamonds as well as white diamonds on the clock face. All these diamonds have been put in to a simple yet very effective design which will be sure to leave an impression on anybody! Even though this watch may be seen as having an extortionate price, the detail and the amount of diamonds is definitely worth it! 

Number 6: This is the first women's watch on our list although there may be a few men out there who like it for themselves! This watch is called the Super Ice Cube and is made by Chopard. Diamonds are a girl’s best friend so why women would not love this one of a kind piece. Just as the aforementioned watch, this watch also has a very simple yet effective design and this will give the watch a wow factor. This watch is coated in an impressive 60 karats of diamonds however is also referred to as a bracelet. We like this watch as it is not only quite appealing to the eye but it is also water resistant to 100 feet and is scratch resistant! Unfortunately this lovely item is a costly $1.1 million. 

Number 5: The next watch that has made it onto our top 10 is the Patek Philippe Sky Moon Tourbillion, costing $1.3 million. Now this is not a regular watch that you can look at & see the time straight away. This watch is extremely complicated; it has the night sky on the back of the watch and on the front it has a very complex face that tells you the date and the moon phases. This watch really is one of a kind as has beautiful features. So it is now clear to see why it has made it onto our list.

Number 4: The Vacheron Constatin Tour de I’lle is the perfect watch for someone who loves to travel the world; this watch has a useful feature that can allow you to set the watch to a second time zone so it is easy to tell the time no matter where you are. Another useful feature is its blue sapphire non – reflective glass. So no more annoying sun reflections to get in the way! Again this watch is double faced with one on the front and back. The price of the Vacheron Constatin Tour De I’lle is $1.5 million.

Number 3: The watch taking third place is the Patek Philippe Platinum World Time, which is worth $4 million! We love this watch as it has modern features but still gives a little bit of a vintage feel. This clever little watch winds itself and allows you to tell the time anywhere in the world relatively easily. Even though this watch costs $4 million there have still been a few made. You can choose do have different colour finishes. These being yellow, white, rose gold and platinum. 

Number 2: Just missing out on first place is the Patek Philippe Super Complication, which took 5 years to make! Even though it does take a long time to make this watch there is more than one out there. This watch doe’s look very small however consists of 900 parts. The watch was originally made for an American banker called Henry Graves. We have seen the maker Patek Philippe has come up a lot on the list so you may now be wondering who they are. Well that are known as the master makers and they say they can make a watch suitable for any man. 

Number 1: So now we have reached the first place. This dazzling watch was made by Chopard and is worth a gob smacking $25 million! This watch is made from 201 karats of coloured diamonds, so is suitably named the Chopard 210 karat. This is a spectacular piece and one of a kind. This watch is so stunning due to its simple yet outstanding features which would be adored by any woman. We also saw another diamond watch in our top 10 made by Chopard, this is because they are the diamond watch experts and make flawless designs desired by so many of us. A deserving winner!

It is clear to see that there are some beautiful watches out there but unfortunately they can come in at a pretty extortionate price. So don’t forget that we sell some lovely watches for men and watches for women at Give and Take, for a much more reasonable price not reaching the millions!
