How does Rufus Gerard compare with other luxury watches?
There are many fine watches with quartz movements or inexpensive mechanical movements, and they can be purchased for as little as US$200. Some of these watches are diamond encrusted and can cost several tens of thousands of dollars. None of these watches is of interest to serious watch collectors and those who appreciate fine hand-built watches with jewelled and decorated movements, for whom only the very high grade men’s luxury watches with hand-finished high precision mechanical movements (automatic or hand wind) are acceptable. Above US$5,000, watches are expected to have the highest quality movements and be produced by hand, from the finest quality materials. This is the bracket into which Rufus Gerard watches fall, along with the top Swiss and German brands.
