As a watch at the top of the luxury pyramid, it can be said to be a symbol of wealth, status and worth. So, what kind of watches do financial practitioners working in Wall Street in the United States, one of the global wealth centers, wear?

Bankers love watches. They love collecting watches and talking about watches. I've seen entire groups of analysts head to the nearest Rolex watch store for afternoon tea, and I've seen them rush to pick out a watch they liked just after receiving their bonuses.

As a watch at the top of the luxury pyramid, it can be said to be a symbol of wealth, status and worth. So, what kind of watches do financial practitioners working in Wall Street in the United States, one of the global wealth centers, wear?

The founder of Rolex is Hans Wilsdorf, who registered Rolex as a trademark in Switzerland in 1908. In the 1920s, Rolex developed waterproof watches. In 1953, Rolex launched a diving watch designed specifically for divers. The design of Rolex watches is solemn, practical, and not flashy, and is loved by a large number of people.

If you have sufficient funds, Rolex is a good choice. Choosing a Rolex is like buying a BMW 3 Series. It is a safer, more secure and unobtrusive choice. And you need to taste it slowly and through the precipitation of time to truly understand the beauty of Rolex.

Rolex’s Submariner, GMT or Sea-Dweller series are naturally more suitable choices for consumers who are buying a Rolex for the first time, but for Wall Street’s financial upstarts, a stainless steel watch strap is a must. The Daytona watch is a must-have.

Hublot, born in 1980, is the first Swiss top watch brand to combine precious metals and natural rubber. The birth of Hublot set off a revolution in the watch industry, both in terms of watchmaking materials and the unique aesthetic concept interpreted by the watch.

Mr. Jean-Claude Biver, who took over Hublot in 2004, used the Big Bang series that subverted the watchmaking industry to make Hublot advance rapidly, and at the same time announced the arrival of Hublot's renaissance era. In just five years, Hublot has launched iconic watches such as the Big Bang million-dollar series, Big Bang all-black series, and Mag Bang series that have attracted worldwide attention. At the same time, Hublot has successfully become one of the most high-end watch brands.

The brand concept advocated by Hublot is "the art of fusion", which covers precious metals such as zirconium, tantalum, magnesium, and titanium, as well as diamonds, rare gemstones, gold, platinum, ceramics, stainless steel, and natural rubber. Perfect blend. Even though the price has increased nearly 10 times compared to 10 years ago, it is still sought after by some Wall Street financial workers and many European bankers.

Panerai is an extremely toxic and addictive brand. When I learned about this brand a long time ago, I felt that all its models were similar and nothing special. Until one day, I suddenly had a whim and wanted to go to the store to see if my slender wrist could hold a 47mm watch, so I accidentally tried the PAM 425. The 47mm watch was not awkward at all when worn on my hand. Still so full and full. Although I don’t wear watches much, I read countless watches, and I have never been so reluctant to take them off.

IWC was founded in 1868 and has a history of 130 years of watchmaking. The place where it was founded is called Schaffhausen. The history of watches in the area can be traced back to the early 15th century, which is a full 459 years earlier than IWC. But it was not until IWC established its factory to make watches that the accuracy of time began to be firmly in people's hands.

IWC is the first-class watch among Swiss watches, second only to the special watch. The grade is slightly higher than Rolex, but not many Chinese people know about it. The essence of IWC is low-key luxury and unassuming.

In the field of professional watchmaking technology, Schaffhausen’s innovative craftsmanship has won praises from watch enthusiasts. IWC's original watches include grand complex watch series, Da Vinci watch series and Portuguese watch series. The pilot watch series, engineer watch series and marine chronograph series are traditional wristwatches. Each series of watches adopts a sporty/practical design and is equipped with a stainless steel or titanium case, which is most suitable for daily wear by people who love sports.

Therefore, IWC watches are suitable for consumers who prefer New Balance to Nike, and those who prefer Audi A8 to Mercedes-Benz S-Class. It not only pursues a youthful and sporty temperament, but also pays more attention to practicality and comfort.

In addition to the ten values ????such as appearance, technology, craftsmanship, service, and inheritance, Patek Philippe also has many unique performances. For example, in 1989 Patek Philippe developed the world's most sophisticated portable watch, the Caliber 89 pocket watch; in 2001, Patek Philippe established the world's largest and most comprehensive private watch museum, the Patek Philippe Museum; in 2009, Patek Philippe announced the Geneva The imprint has stricter quality standards and is a more user-friendly private imprint - the Patek Philippe imprint; Patek Philippe launched the world's first silicon balance wheel - Gyromax Si in 2011; Patek Philippe also has multiple watch auction records and a variety of complex function men's watches. , owners of women's watches... In short, if you want to choose the first, only, and best watch, Patek Philippe will never disappoint you.

However, for bankers, the investment value of Patek Philippe may exceed the need for daily wear, and it may even be a good choice to be passed down as a family legacy.

If you see someone wearing a Swatch, it is actually a declaration of self-personality and lifestyle, telling everyone that "I actually don't take myself seriously." But later, when Goldman Sachs Global Chairman Lord Blankfein started wearing Swatch, the attitude and concept of Swatch on Wall Street changed a lot.

Wall Street financial workers who now wear Swatch may prefer to let others know that "I am confident, but not arrogant."

But you can also choose Blancpain (it’s from Swatch anyway). Blancpain’s Aqua Lung is not only my favorite, it’s also a favorite of Russian President Vladimir Putin. To me, this watch means a design that is diverse yet user-friendly, subtly highlighting masculine charm.
