A Lange and sohne watches | Luxury Watch Blog by Time Imports

Do you want a stunning timepiece? You’re willing to spend the money, you just need to decide what kind you want. Right. Well, there are a lot of luxury watches out there, so let’s take a look.

To begin with, let’s look at Hublot watches. Hublot watches are Swiss made and are some of the newer luxury watches out there. Their trademark is the natural black rubber strap which took three years to make. They use some of the finest materials in their watches, like titanium screws, black nickel indices, and carbon bridges. Hublot watches typically have a more rugged and adventurous style.

A Lange & Sohne watches have a one hundred and fifty year history. This company has pioneered timepiece technology, creating a double chronometer allowing for the timing of two different events for up to thirty minutes. Typically these watches have a more classic, spartan design and are made out of gold or platinum.

AP watches (Audemars Piguet) were founded in 1875 in the Joux Valley and have maintained a tradition of excellence . AP watches have a variety of styles, ranging from the more contemporary to the classic, to the sporty. In any case, these timepieces attain the pinnacle of luxury.

These are just some of the brands you may encounter when searching for a new luxury timepiece. It’s up to you to decide what kind of style you prefer.

Ferrari Scuderia Rattrapante Panerai watch is a must-have for automobile and timepiece enthusiasts alike.

The Ferrari Scuderia features a compelling (and familiar) color scheme of black and yellow, the latter subtly visible from the inside of the watch’s calfskin strap, as well as in small doses on the black dial, most notably coloring the Ferrari shield at twelve. A stainless steel bezel and case tastefully balance out this otherwise potent duality of color.

A model of sleek Italian design — not to mention legendary Panerai craftmanship — the Ferrari Scuderia Rattrapante fully capitalizes on the magnifico tradition of the automobiles behind it.

For a more high-fashion look, Ferrari fans might also enjoy the Panerai Granturismo Chronograph, a timepiece notable for its brushed stainless steel bezel and bold yellow dial punctuated by black subdials. Alternatively, those drivers who prefer not to dress their sports cars in yellow will likely prefer the Ferrari Perpetual Calendar, which boasts a another classic color scheme: black and red.

Of course, watch devotees may rightfully associate these Panerai pieces to the Las Vegas collection by Audemars Piguet watches, featuring a similarly striking color scheme and epic (although separate) point of inspiration.

In the same way that I wouldn’t expect you to wear a $5,000 watch to play a game of tag team football, I also wouldn’t expect someone to wear a neon rubber watch to a business meeting – unless you work at Google or something… In most people’s opinions, watches are not only to tell time, but they also make your presence known to the world. Some of the more casual timepieces like Hublot watches are quite extraordinary, but they also have a “sporty” look to them as well with big round faces, Kevlar bands and lots of bells and whistles such as luminous hands, date calendars and alarms.

There’s nothing wrong with these watches, in fact they are pretty amazing. But, it’s also not the kind of watch one would wear to an important business meeting. In this case, you might want to try something like A Lange watches or Audemars Piguet watches. These watches in particular have a very business-like look to them – classical, but not overdone. The A Lange Sohne watches are really general in that they are the type of watch you would expect to come from such a popular manufacture such as A Lange and Sohne watches, but they still exceed your greatest expectations.

Audemars Piguet watches are a bit more detailed and artsy. Think Tim Burton meets Wassily Kandinsky. It’s fun and funky, without being precocious. These are fine luxury watches, so it doesn’t matter which way you look at it – from a recreational standpoint or from a business standpoint, any of these watches would make you proud to wear them.
