Designer Watches
A fine wrist watch is more than just a timepiece; it is a personal extension of who you are. It subtly reveals your taste, earnings bracket and your appreciation for the finer things in life. A watch can be the mark of good taste, wealth and success. It should be chosen with care to express who you are, and what you hope to be. More than just a timepiece, a fine watch brings order to your day. It keeps you on schedule and subtly informs you when you should hurry, and when to slow down; when to meet someone, or catch a plane. A watch brings order to chaos, and a good watch does it with panache!
Watches have come a long way since the fine pocket watch and heavy gold ‘Albert’ chains of days gone by, but they continue to be valuable heirloom pieces. A good watch will never lose its worth. On the contrary, it will continue to accrue in value, like good antiques and estate jewellery. Indeed River Oak Diamonds has an ever-changing selection of new and pre-owned watches which continue to hold their value and esteem as a wise investment. Brands such as Rolex and Cartier have long been status symbols, combining life-long horological efficiency with timeless good looks. They are a sure mark of success. Gold, platinum or diamond features add to their value and exclusive appeal. The Cartier signature hallmark of a sapphire cabochon on the winder is just one of the subtle design features of these classic, world renowned watches. They speak a language of their own which transcends all others – of good taste, wealth and success.
More modern counterparts which are just as valuable and revealing are Jacob & Co, Breitling, Tag Heuer, Omega and other luxury brands which create some of the finest wrist-watches in the world. Appealing to more modern tastes, these watches have all the dials and gizmos to be whatever the owner needs them to be, without sacrificing a modicum of style or value. Nowadays a good watch fulfills a far wider role than just telling the time. Today’s watches can be self-winding, have a chronometer, compass, stop-watch and backlight features. Scratch and water resistant, some watches can go to 200 metres below sea level – and have the ability to tell you so!
One watch is never enough in today’s world. Everyone needs an everyday watch, a reliable timepiece, probably holding some sentimental value. But better than fine jewellery, a dress watch is essential for that final touch of good grooming. A sparkle of diamonds on an oyster face or the stunning flash of a jewel-encompassed bezel completes the attire for an evening out. Everyone should be able to say ‘Which watch should I wear today?’ and take pleasure in choosing from their personal collection of fine wrist-watches.
A good watch should be chosen with care, and given with thought. A classic timepiece makes the ideal gift to mark an occasion; a special birthday, a promotion, an anniversary or retirement. The gift of a watch, for him or for her, is always the perfect gift to give. River Oak Diamonds offers a unique 30-day return policy so you can never get it wrong. An exchange is always possible. More useful than jewellery and more personal than other gifts, there is a watch for all seasons, all occasions and all moods.
Fine watches from such makers as Patek Philippe, Maurice Lacroix, Raymond Weil, and Piaget are fine collector’s watches, with limited editions and an underlying reputation of the finest workmanship in the world. More useful than a race horse and more fun than a work of art, a good watch from one of the finest watch-makers in the world can be the very best investment and the most acceptable of gifts.
Whether you are selecting a luxury timepiece for yourself or a loved one, choose one of the best and most trusted brands in the world, and buy only from a reputable dealer. River Oak Diamonds would be privileged to discuss your needs and advise in choosing your next fine timepiece. River Oak Diamonds offers an exceptional warranty of 5 years on new watches and an unrivalled 2 year warranty on a pre-owned wrist watch; such is their confidence in their products.
