are large watches out of style?

That said, sizes are definitely going down. Even the 'Big Watch' offenders have been producing smaller and smaller watches lately. Panerai's Luminor Due collection are GORGEOUS, and in my opinion some of the most balanced watches they've produced in a decade (and some are 38mm).

Aside from Rolex and Patek Philippe, luxury watch brands with a high demand (in the United States) include Breitling, Omega, Audemars Piguet, Cartier, Panerai, Jaeger-LeCoultre and IWC (in no particular order). ... However, not even all examples of these watch models will keep, or increase, their value over time.

Nothing at all wrong with you buying a omega quartz still a great watch to own and if you see post by M4TT very robust. Hope you understand I am and like most people dont dislike your watch because its a quartz, still a great watch, its just people have a price limit on quartz.

Ball watches are every bit as good as Rolex/Omega in terms of build quality (better than Tag). To really differentiate among the three you need some heavy duty lab conditions to split hair.

While i love automatics and mechanical movements in general, i think kinetic movements are very good too. My everyday watch is a kinetic its reliable and very accurate and for everyday wear i feel on the whole its a better option, and i like the fact that part of a kinetic is mechanical.

As technology is advancing with speed, so the watch brands are leaning on the scientific machines for making their pieces near-to-perfection. ... Tissot, the Swiss luxury watch brand also follows the same line. So, it can be said that some of their watches maybe handmade or mechanical but not all of them.

That being said, Tissot slightly leads with its ability to provide innovation and functionality. This is not saying that Bulova lacks innovation; it is just that Bulova tends to lean more towards style, while Tissot offers both form and function.

Grand Seiko is so expensive because they make hand-made, high-quality watches. Their watches are known to have an unique and very precise mechanism. Furthermore the watches are hand-made and make use of durable materials such as titanium and platinum.

As an investment neither watches will really appreciate in value at the sub-$1,000 range. My bottom line recommendation is for the Tissot for the heritage and the fact its a swiss movement, but remember at (what I'm assuming) the sub-$1,000 range, it's really up to you.

They are supposedly good watches, but not taking seriously anymore because of their cheap marketing ploys. As others have stated, they have a really bad rep of stealing designs. However, for the money they are pretty good deals. They mostly use seiko movements.

Because of their sleek, timeless appearance and rugged durability, they are a popular watch for everyday wear and are a stable investment. ... Tudor is not one of the most well-known brands out on the market, but it's the sister company of the watch giant Rolex.

Yes they are. Tissot is a very big brand and sell expensive watches. They have been the official time keepers for many huge events all over the world. ... Tissot Automatic Watches are not just durable and good, they are amazing and best value for that price range.

"Panerai's chunky, cushion-shaped watches are a modern cult phenomenon and one of the best investments you can make. Panerai has a fantastic collector base and, even if it's just to make a slight change, every model is limited, so whatever Panerai you buy will become a collectable soon enough."

Like it has already been mentioned, that is not to say they are bad watches. You might get a good one that will last a long time. Just don't buy into all the marketing hype and stories they post about their supposed history. I like the Louis Bolle watches I've seen on Ebay.

Luxury watches such as Tag Heuer can be a good investment. Buying wisely and looking after the watch will help to achieve maximum resale value.

Original Watches are made with technology that is a USP of that company. It also costs much to produce such watches, wherein 1st copy would be just copy of structure, looks and every minute detail of the original watch EXCEPT the Technology and High quality materials that were used to produce original watch.
