The Best Luxury Watches Under $2000 For 2024
While we’ve previously discussed price points like under $500 and under $1,000 that each have their own characteristics in terms of value for money. The $2000 price tag puts you in the realm of entry-level luxury. You can have automatic chronographs, complications like GMT, a wide range of materials to choose from any style of watch you can imagine.
Today, we’re going to focus on that and take a look at some of the most impressive value propositions around the $2,000 mark. We’ll be featuring a number of brands such as Longines, Tissot, Mühle-Glashütte, Sinn, Nomos, and many others that produce high-quality watches that appeal to a large number of enthusiasts in this price range.
What a Good Luxury Watches Under $2000?
When considering a luxury watch, you must first consider the factors. All watches are worn. All watches tell time. Those are two of the simplest fundamentals when it comes to being a watch. What makes luxury watches worth so much more than one you can get for cheap is several qualifiers. Luxury watches last more than a year, more than ten years. They have the potential to last a lifetime, and may even appreciate their value if good care is taken to preserve them.
Brand
Brand names carry a history of quality assurance. The most well-known brand names for luxury watches, like Rolex, are so well known because they have a reputation for making watches that never break down. They are reliable above all else, and with reliability as a cornerstone of design, more unique additions come about.
Material
Naturally, sturdy watches are made of sturdy material. Not plastics and soft metals that can warp or snap after too much use. Great watches are made of great and rare metals, or finely prepared leather that does not fade or fall to poor weather.
Precision
Telling time is a delicate matter. Everyone can count seconds, but some count faster than others. In the digital age, we have the most precise instruments in the world to track time at a global scale, and that precision began with the analog ticking of the watch. Inferior watches may lose fractions of a second over time, making them slower by a minute, or off by a decade.
Aesthetics
Every culture in the world has chosen to place value on things of beauty. There is no need to philosophize as to why. Watches are the same. They are complimentary to the wearer, bearing status with nothing but a glance. They are a crucial part of a first appearance, and a great watch can say many things.
Value
Some watches are best kept for a special occasion, and never worn. Much like collectibles, some brands, and watches will appreciate. These are valued for their limited number and increasing attention after years of patient brand recognition. A great watch can eventually pay off the purchase of something even more expensive. Maybe even two watches.
Best Luxury Watches Under $2,000 for All Occasions
This list covers several fine watches for enthusiasts but within the range of an accessible luxury budget.
Sinn 556 I
Sinn is a German brand of luxury watches that cover a wide array of high-life circumstances, but their 566 I model is best for everyday wear and use. It features a slick, silver-on-black face with a second counter parallel to the winder. The lack of other numbers accentuates the slick, minimal aesthetic. Some may even be astounded to know this watch sits comfortably between $1,200 and $1,500. The stripped down design emphasizes its utility, a watch for people who want to tell the time for many years.
Nomos Club Campus 38
The Club Campus 38 is halfway between a classic and a modern fixture, featuring a lightweight design with a leather fabric strap. It’s priced at a modest $1,650, including the case, which can come in several sizes so it looks good even off your arm. Nomos distinguishes itself from the rest of the German competition with in-house designs for calibers. Great for enthusiasts, but with a brand aimed at younger college-age wearers who can appreciate a mix of traditional and new appeals.
Longines DolceVita
For those who want to stand out while blending in, the DolceVita meshes seamlessly with the sharp lines expected of a suit thanks to its rectangular face. That same face also starts the talking point of your watch’s better qualities. This fashion fixative starts at $1,675 and has a classically stylish black leather strap with an elongated Art Deco-style design of the face. It mimics more stylish – and more expensive – watches like those of Cartier but still maintains its own vision for what should be most visible beyond the cuff.
Mühle-Glashütte ProMare Go
A purpose-built Diving watch is good for up to 300m of water resistance for those who like to bring their style with them on more adventurous pursuits. The strap is a water-safe leather rubber hybrid material with multiple wide buckles. The face is easy to read and features a light-blue finish to stand out from the rest of the black or silver-faced competitors. This lets it shimmer like the water’s surface even from above, but the minimalist white elements help it stay readable even underwater.
Tissot PRX Chrono
For an ideal Chronograph, you want a stylish design that is also easily readable with a variety of modes quickly accessible with just the press of a switch. The Tissot PRX Chrono has all of those things with a Swiss pedigree. It features three individual stopwatches evenly spaced at the 3, 6, and 9 o’clock positions without compromising the outer rim of marks. The fully metal build, strap, and all, give it a retro-futuristic vibe, all available at a $1,750 starting price.
Farer Bernina
With a thin blue strap and bright red numbering, this tachymeter-telemeter chronograph is the Swiss army knife of Swiss-made watches. The statement it makes is “I know everything”, fitting for the Universal moniker of the Farer brand. It tells the time, measures a minute, a sprint, a day and many other things. The rarities it is equipped with match the rarity of its aesthetic appeal. It looks like something that belongs in a science lab. But for the scholarly-minded, or the enthusiasts who favor a watch that can do it all with just a look, it’s an ideal choice at just $1,955.
How to Wind a Luxury Watches Under $2000?
Do you need to wind an automatic watch? Automatic watch movements are identical to manual movements, however they operate by a self-winding movement which is powered by the motions of the wearer during use. This means you will not need to wind it if you are wearing it daily or before the power reserve runs out.
1. An automatic watch will give you around 38 hours of power, provided you wear it all day and only take it off at night.
2. However, if your automatic watch is not worn for a period of time (letting it run low), you can either wind it by the crown or gently shake the watch while on your wrist a few times to get the oscillating rotor spinning.
To wind an automatic watch, hold it in your left hand and unscrew the crown in your right, until it’s into the first position. Give it 20 to 40 winds until you feel the resistance. When you can’t wind any further, it’s fully wound. It is not possible to overwind an automatic watch. Lastly, screw the crown back in and you’re all set!
3. You may also decide to store it on a watch winder to keep the movement ticking. Watch winders doubly function as an advanced case, which keeps all manner of elements from degrading your watch while it is resting. Subtle things like humidity, changing temperature, and even latent magnetic fields can hurt the craftsmanship of a quality watch. It doesn’t matter if your watch can survive a deep dive if it loses its timing. Winders keep your watch safe from everything, including neglect.
Winders can work on many watches or on one at a time, serving as a more practical alternative to a simple case. MOZSLY has a range of winders that complement the design of any watch they can wind. If you have funds left over from a luxury watches under $2000 you can spend the rest on a premium watch winder to keep it timeless. Learn more about watch winders here.
