Some Swiss watch fans eager to wear the work of a fine maker may have to upgrade after the country's Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie categorised the industry for the first time, clarifying which brands are in and out of the exclusive club. In a three-year review of 86 brands, 64 were selected as examples of fine watchmaking, according to the Swiss organiser of the Geneva watch salon and breitling replica Watches & Wonders exhibition. Richemont's Cartier, Rolex and Swatch Group AG's Omega made the cut. Richemont's Baume & Mercier, Rolex's sister brand Tudor and Swatch's Longines didn't. The industry group says it's the first comprehensive effort to classify high-end Swiss brands in a business where the perception of exclusivity equals all-important bragging rights. The replica watches uk group said it wanted to bring clarity to the consumer about what it means to buy a fine watch - even if that involved excluding some other well-known brands. Money isn't everything and in some cases heritage trumped cheap omega watches price tags: Cartier made it into the rankings even though its watches generally sell for thousands less than a Patek Philippe.
