    Vaer is making some fantastic watches too.

    Long Island Watch Co.'s Islander Watch brand also needs mention! I own two and can attest to their quality and value.

      I agree and was thinking the same!

  • @Celebmacil

    Bertucci probably warrants a mention here for their exceptionally durable and reasonably priced field watches.

      Much more so than shinola and I'm from metro Detroit

    You forgot to mention Islander Watches ! That's where the quality is in every little thing and the love for the watch.

      Well, as good as their products are they are most more appropriately considered as an homage-maker and not an actual brand that creates their own designs.

    Nice. But Vaer deserves a place on the list.

    • @WatchesYouAfford

      It didn't make our top 20 but when we update the article on our site we'll surely include them as well. And maybe make a new video with other recommendations.

  • @garythomas3150
    @garythomas3150 Год назад +7

    How did Monta not make the list? Especially considering that both Ball and Hamilton are on the list. Ball and Hamilton are Swiss owned, Swiss operated, and manufactured in Switzerland.

    Great video, you should make a second one, since Jacob & Co is not mentioned, also Islander is another great brand.

    Thanks for the great video. These are some very nice watches.

  • @shiranduarte

    My favorite is Ball. They are amazing!

    America has/had great watches, I own a Bulova Accutron Spaceview,great watch still working fine after nearly 60 years, a Tornek-Rayville mil-ship vintage, an electronic red LED Wittnauer, a few electric Timex and a Pulsar P4, all are amazing watches.
    MKII are also very nice and relatively "cheap" for the quality,
    Brew are also very nice watches,

  • @chrisenchemin7183

    Thanks for this vid. And especially for introducing me Resco Instruments, Kobold and RGM Watch Co., 3 brands that I did not know.
    Perhaps you could have replaced Hamilton, which is now more Swiss than American, with Vaer on your list.

    • @WatchesYouAfford
      @WatchesYouAfford  Год назад +1

      Thanks for your suggestion. For us Hamilton still is, at its heart, an American brand, even though they moved to Switzerland in 1969.

      Resco is amazing! I own 2, and they have the absolute best customer service!

    WOW i had no idea. Should have included price point.

  • @jeffreysmith9147
    @jeffreysmith9147 Год назад +2

    I see that you did your homework, though I had to wait to the end to see it. I said if RGM Watch Company isn't on the list then something is mighty wrong with the video. Thanks for the video.

    This channel is called "Watches You Can Afford" and they're highlighting $6500 watches.
    Should be called "Watches who can afford?"

    • @WatchesYouAfford
      @WatchesYouAfford  Год назад

      This series of articles & videos about watch brands is not only about affordable watchmakers. We tried to include both affordable and more high-end options to get an idea about which are the most important watchmakers from each country. We have lots of different videos on our channel with affordable watch recommendations.

    • @SpaceG95
      @SpaceG95 Год назад

      That is why I wonder why the didn't mention Aragon from Florida. Affordable and original design.

  • @bellairiantos7602

    Although it may not be considered "high end" Aragon is made in Miami Florida

    Ball is now a Swiss made and owned watch company as are many of these companies no longer American

  • @Yaketyyak21
    @Yaketyyak21 Год назад +1

    Why do these American watch’s have Swiss made on them..

    • @dannysimenauer5745
      @dannysimenauer5745 Год назад +2

      Because the brands were produced in America, then moved production to Switzerland.

  • @pete6705
    @pete6705 Год назад

    A bunch of them say Swiss Made right on them

  • @michaelbedford8017
    @michaelbedford8017 Год назад

    It's amazing that none of these watches contain american designed and made calibers.
    Any fool can make the rest.

  • @gtracer6629

    Funny how you are talking about American watches and yet you have a British accent. Couldn't you find an American to do this video?

    • @darthgiggity7948
      @darthgiggity7948 Год назад

      North Americans and British people are of the same ethinicity. They just speak with different accents and/or dialects, and sometimes language.
