Whether you own a luxury watch or not, you have probably wondered at least once, "Which model is popular?" While everyone has their own motivations, such as "I want a popular classic model!" or "I want a model that no one else has!", it is difficult to know which models are actually popular unless you get real-time information.

So this time, we will be revealing the top 5 brands handled by Commit Ginza (hereinafter referred to as our store) in the second half of 2023 from among multiple brands! Please enjoy reading while imagining the rankings with us.

No. 5 [Cartier] "Santos de Cartier" "Ref. WSSA0030 "

In fifth place is the "Ref. WSSA0030" from Santos de Cartier, which was created in 1904 at the request of Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont.

Featuring a beautiful blue dial, screwed bezel, and large-size case, this model has thicker hands and is coated with Superluminova, which greatly improves visibility. It also comes with very convenient features, such as the ability to easily adjust the size of the bracelet or change it to a leather strap. This is a watch that we would especially recommend to those who are looking for functionality as well as a sporty and masculine design.

4th Place
[Girard-Perregaux] "Laureato" "Ref. 81010-11-431-11A"

Coming in fourth place is the Laureato "Ref. 81010-11-431-11A," which was released as a model commemorating the 225th anniversary of the company's founding.

Featuring a blue dial decorated with a small pyramidal Clous de Paris pattern and an octagonal bezel, this watch features a sapphire case back that reveals the in-house automatic movement "Cal. GP01800" that boasts a power reserve of approximately 54 hours. The bracelet flows seamlessly into the case, and the 10.88mm case is large enough that it won't get in the way of your cuffs, making it an extremely comfortable watch to wear.

3rd Place
[Zenith] "Chronomaster Sports" "Ref.03.3100.3600/69.M3100 "

In third place is the Chronomaster Sports "Ref. 03.3100.3600/69.M3100", released in 2021 and equipped with the El Primero, which is considered the pinnacle of chronograph movements .

This watch features a refreshing matte white dial with three striking colored subdials, a durable ceramic bezel, and a rugged SS (stainless steel) case and bracelet, giving it a bold and sporty finish. The El Primero movement visible through the see-through back is a high-beat model that beats at 36,000 vibrations per hour. It is impressive that it can measure with high precision to the 1/10th of a second, while also having a power reserve of approximately 60 hours.

2nd Place
[Parmigiani Fleurier] "Tonda PF Micro Rotor" "Ref. PFC914-1020001-100182 "

In second place is the Tonda PF Micro-Rotor (Ref. PFC914-1020001-100182), designed by Guido Tereni, head of Bvlgari's watch division and one of the creators of the Octo Finissimo.

Tonda means "round" in Italian, and as its name suggests, the flowing curves of the round case create a beautiful finish. In addition, it is packed with other features that further enhance its luxury, such as fine guilloche engraving, solid gold skeleton hands, and a multi-finish bezel made of PT (platinum). With a case diameter of 40mm and a case thickness of 7.8mm, this simple two-hand model is thin and comfortable to wear, making it a versatile piece that can be worn with both casual and dressy styles.

1st Place
[Chopard] "Alpine Eagle 41" "Ref. 298600-3001 "

Taking the honorable first place is the Alpine Eagle Large (Ref. 298600-3001), which pays homage to the St. Moritz, the first watch created in 1980 by Chopard co-president Karl-Friedrich Scheufele.

The most distinctive feature of this model is the Aletsch blue dial with galvanic processing, which is said to be inspired by the iris of an eagle. The case and bracelet are made of "Lucent Steel A223", which took four years to develop, and is about 50% harder than "316L", which is commonly used for regular SS (stainless steel). Furthermore, it is anti-allergic, so it is highly recommended for those who want to use it frequently or those who have metal allergies. Why not take this opportunity to get your hands on a luxury sports watch that combines beautiful design and practicality?
