- The average price for a luxury watch these days is around £5,000, a number that has been steadily climbing over the years and one that doesn’t seem to quite represent the value that it used to. Gone are the days when the average salary could buy a person the average luxury watch-let alone something truly high-end. But all is not lost, because there are still some secrets that not everyone knows; with that being said, here are three high-end chronographs that are cheaper than you think.
Featured Watches:
Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Compressor Chronograph 1758470
Zenith Chronomaster El Primero 03.2040.400/69.C494
Breguet Type XXI Flyback 3810ST/92/9ZU

Watchfinder is my happy place. I come here to unwind, appreciate the stories and admire the engineering. Please never stop, I would be genuinely gutted.
Lol @ "unwind". Good one.
Who in their right mind would rather have a generic Rolex Submariner over that beautiful Breguet watch?
People who don’t want to loose 30% value right after they swipe their card
Those who need people to comment on their Rolex.
99% of people buy them for the attention.
These 3 watches are all stunning.
@@TobIas-or9dj on secondary market you wont loose anything.
... and people who are aware (and fear) the costs of Breguet service 🤑
Well here this watch is much more expensive than Rolex Sub. Almost 40%…
3:34 that 7 O'clock lume is ghastly
The Zenith is a beautiful piece of art and craftsmanship.
It'll be the next one in my collection...with the see-through face and glass back. Beautiful!
Brequet completely outclasses a Rolex. Far more panache and high-end style. Keep bringing us more great super informative videos!
“Oh the tourbillon is his as well...no big deal” love it😄
that lume application on the JC is bad bad
The Breguet is pure class, my choice out of the 3..
Good choice..with U$S 21.000,oo it can be your watch..easy
The Breguet is stunning the one I would take out of the three. A piece of engineering marvel....
I love the close up shots. Really lets you see the quality of the watch's finish.
I own a late 90’s Type XX Transatlantique 3820. Great mechanics and looks sharp. Finish is impeccable. Put a new Breguet brown croc strap on a few years back and it can be worn anywhere. One of my favorite watches and my only Chrono.
Breguet Type XXI is a wonderful piece. Thanks for bringing it. We don't see it very often
Three great stories that you’ll probably never hear from any other reviews, absolutely fascinating as always!
The Breguet took my breath away.
Thanks again WF.
This channel is so well above everything else in the watch world that this is unnecessary , but it is just fantastic to watch these masterpieces in such fine detail and with such good taste . Excellent all around
be shopping here again for sure. Thanks.
I used to have the JLC. Although I wasn’t sold on it as a timepiece, those oversized triple crowns worked wonderfully as a back scratcher when lowered on a piece of string.
😂 😂 😂
😅
Could not agree more: well done, BREGUET is just out of this world!
I’m still a beginner in this crazy priced horological hobby. I think this is the first time I’ve learned something about Breguet and the amazing Contributions they made to the industry as a whole. Kinda makes me want one now… actually make that 3. I would love to own one of each of these. Maybe one day… Best of luck and thanks for the videos.
Amazing video! So informative! Have learned so much! Thanks so much! Breguet is absolutely amazing!
The Breguet takes it.
the details are gorgeous, but the watch as a whole isn't to my taste at all.
The Breguet looks very stylish and clean cut sort of speak.
Really a nice choice out of those three, would be my choice for sure. Got my attention right away.
... for me too
Tremendously expensive to service though
I own a late 1990’s Type XX 3820 Transatlantique and it has been great. Looks smart and holds up. Keep my on a brown croc strap and I do wear it with a suit sometimes.
Love the review. All three are stunning pieces. Especially the Brequet
The amount of history in this 14 minute video is amazing! Thank you!
That Breguet is such a classy watch. Well put together and it's simple but sophisticated. Good job putting that on the last.
Breguet is like the guy who invented 90% of watch industry !!!
The Blancpain Leman Flyback Chronograph would've been another choice for this particular video. Love that Breguet though!
Without doubt the best presented and most informative watch review channel on RUclips. Where else would you find knowledgeable presentations on esoteric watches 99.9% of us will never even be aware of let alone see...? This may be too niche, but I’d welcome a comparison between the Breguet XX, XXI (3810), XXI (3817) and XXII...
By now, luxury watchmakers should start polishing the underside of the hands.
I learnt lesser history in my school compared to the lessons in this video, and I didn't even yawn. Good one. Breguet takes it.
0:17 and 7:40 show disappointments in finishing which are absent in Breguet.
"W" at 2:00 is not acceptable either.
@@u.d.7543, omg, ew!
That El Primero is a 1969 edition , is nothing wrong with the finishing , probably serviced a few times in it's life :) ! that's where the scratches come from! and yes some patina marks occasionally , that being age related !!
Nope. There is some fairly shoddy lume application at 10:45. The Zenith and the Breguet have the level of finish you can expect in this price category. Excellent, but nothing more.
Great watches. I own the JLC and it is a great watch (great design, colom wheel chrono, 69 hours power reserve etc.). I miss it it because it is having service right now. You can see it is a JLC by a mile away, so that shows the design strenght of the watch imho. The same with the Zenith. Great design and I want one! The Brequet watch did not appeal to me (I like elements of the watch) although the story of Brequet is very interesting. Brequet was a genius. It is not fair to judge an 15 year old watch (design) with a macro lens because the standards today are so much higher. Lume applied by men is more difficult than lume applied by a robot. With the naked eye the JLC looks beautiful. Just my 2 cents.
I have to say I am in awe of the Breguet! The dial is incredible in my eyes and checks off many of the boxes that would tickle my fancy.
The Jaeger LeCoultre is a stunner as well if I remember correctly they purchase their hands elsewhere.
Thank You!
I appreciate all the efforts that are put into making these videos!
All 3 thank you.. But Zenith is my favorite chronograph of all times.
Great content 👍! Thanks for making these stunning videos.
Thank you for passing on your knowledge in all the videos you post. That Breguet is stunning and now on the top of my want list!
It's not knowledge it's just advertising...
A thoroughly entertaining and educational video delivered so well it should be a tv series! Loved it
mind BLOWING hearing the history behind such watches... will be looking at them with interest from here on
That Breguet is a stunning looking watch.
Great video. Thank you!
Decidely one of the best videos by the learned team at Watch finder. Thanks .
I was surprised on how well the Zenith watch is, did not expect that. Plus, the super camera lens used is superb! How on earth can someone "dislike" this guy's videos...
That was exceptional. Thank you.
Thank you for the education absolutely amazing.
Thanks definitely buying a Breguet now
Thanks to this video I've changed my end- game Grail watch, from the speedmaster to one in this list.
great video, i like how the zenith looks, but i'd go with the breguet just because
Excellent. And thanks for teaching about the history of those makers and the men behind them.
You know I watch to unwind as well. Quality of the videos is unmatched. Thank you for your efforts to produce the finest education channel for luxury watch lovers.
That Type XXI is just gorgeous.. I really want one
2:41 while the jlc really looks good.....you aren't doing a favour with those macro shots
Yeah the watch is over ten years old
Outstandingly educational
Thanks to WatchFinder, last year I knew and then bought my own Zenith El Primero, exactly the same reference that appears on this video. And I simply love it 😍!
Great video, thank you for this moment of poetry and history🥂
well crafted and eloquent video...cheers!
Superb video, thank you sir.
A very interesting video! Thaks!
Apart from its amazing visual appeal this video is a real text book of history, facts, people and events ! Great job !!!
It would have the be the Breguet for my first choice....
Enjoyable video, great to hear of some of the history of the makers to, thank you.
It’s ridiculous how under rated Breguet is, their watches are all stunning!
Exactly would take that over a Daytona every day of the week.
Weak eye dominant Daytona doesnt have an off center date wheel to annoy you.
More like ridiculous how overrated most high end watches are. Not a single Rolex is worth more than $5000.
They are not underrated, they are more expansive and exclusive…
@@maestro200377 In Rolex’s case that was because they cut production to create a waiting list and then jacked up the prices.
Hi Team Watchfinder & Co.
first of all, thank you very much for making this channel and constantly indulge us with beautiful video full of knowledge and history about timepieces, have been a fan since I found your channel on youtube.
May I request a favour to review a 1941 Breguet reference 4296 which was sold at Phillips auction a year ago and the reason behind why Breguet has never made its lug angled on most of its variant?
Thank you very much in advance and lookin' forward for more video and topic.
Cheers team
Excellent video, I’ve learned something new today. Sorry to see Zenith go under in the manner it did.
Great content as always.
Love the Breguet type 21
4:10 we finally get to see your face!
Omg how did you notice that? You should take up stalking.lol
Yep, there he is!
Well done Sherlock, finally some sort of a clue.
@@alastairblair There are a few Rolex videos you can see it on the smooth Bezel, its a bit weird seeing it.
Awesome... Excellent... As always... keep up the good work
Is there another channel that gives us such a masterful combination of storytelling, interesting explanations of all things horological and beautiful closeup shots of exquisite watches? If there is, I am unaware.
I am a fan of ur watch making knowledge and the way u explain the history of each watch.simply fantastic! Oh and than accent coupled with exemplary vocabulary!! Pleasure to listen to you.

Thank you. The best information yet. Too own something so nice for so little. All three are a wonderful bargain. Never looked at chronographs before because of the price range of quality movements and the complexity involved. Very surprising to see what you can get in all three examples. Very grateful also you didn't show us a Rolex. Bored of hearing about all the different versions and etc., etc. about why the need another one. Thanks again.
Wow those are some beautiful watches that Zenith is something else
I love the way this guy just explains things his way of presenting is so classy outstanding videos even if you disagree with him or dislike the watch love him or like him this guy is a thro breed thanks for the wonderful presentation...
The El Primero is such a handsome watch.
Excellent Review...
That transition shot to show the lume at 6:45 is amazing
Can you review my favourite watch? The Breitling B01 premier?
That Type 21 is one of the most gorgeous watches I have ever seen!
dang! great video dude.
If only a could buy a watch reviewed in this channel. Thanks for showing us these beautiful watches.
Can you do a review on the Baume & Mercier, Clifton Baumatic, cosc certified edition?
A very notable group. Thank you.
Of those three...Zenith without hesitation on this particular model ( simply historic ).
Love this video, very informative to novice like me. BIG LIKE
What is it with JLC and shoddily applied lume?
I wished the El Primero 1969 Original was used instead of the 42mm EP. Since that represents the original design best with 38mm. * Looks down at EP 1969 original on wrist* such a beauty.
Awesome watches!awesome video!
All of the above. Form definitely follows function, so there’s a chronometer style in the broad brushstroke, but...each is beautifully, subtly different.
Amazing video
Awesome content. Just awesome.
Of these three, Breguet all the way.
I wonder what will happen to the luxury watch industry during these uncertain times. Would love to see you make a video of it! These watches are beauties though.
0:56 hello there Mr watchfinder (in reflection)
Well-spotted!
Sneaky
👁👁
7:40 is the hand underside untreated?
Look at 3.46 too... rough... i never understand not polishing the underside...
Your videos are like drinking a fine old wine 🍷
They are like a perfectly sculptured piece of art.
They are like watching a perfect cinematography movie.
Three very interesting watches.
Although one would never see it with the naked eye, it's shocking to see the rusty undersides of the hands on the JLC and the Zenith reflected in your macro shots.
Picky picky. And that is not rust, according to the watchmakers it is red gold micro-rutilations.
Oh no, that's really sloppy. I was thinking about El Primero in future, but after watching this I will go for Grand Seiko. Pretty sure they've taken care of both sides of the hands.
I honestly was more disappointed with the flaws on the JLC's dial.
@@aromaticsnail I don't think watch makers intend their watches to be looked at with a loupe or macro lens.
@@locutusdborg126 I'd partially agree with you. Loupes were always a thing but probably most buyers wouldn't even know what one was, let alone bring one to buy a watch. Macro lens have been available for a long time in photography. What probably happened is that technology available to watchmakers has just recently been able to be more precise for micro detailing and also buyers/collectors have a lot more access to knowledge that was restricted.
Wow, two of my favorite watches ever right in the thumbnail. Still out of my range, but I can drool.
Any chance you can do a video on the 2020 IWC PORTUGIESER CHRONOGRAPH with the new in-house movement please?
Hi bro :) What kind of camera u use for video ?
Couple of things I noticed on the Jeager Le Coultre from the macro shots. When one hand passes over the other you can see how unfinished the underside of the hand is. Also the lume is anything but applied precisely.
1:32 the lume seems a bit sloppy to me. How does the QC at JLC compare to that at Rolex?
This was just straight awesome.
nice information....
thanks, i liked this very much :)
