Watches 2015: the best watches you can buy between £2000 and £3000

Our round-up of the finest timepieces you can buy, in every price bracket

  • Ball Watch Engineer II Volcano

    Now Audemars Piguet’s exclusivity over forged-carbon cases seems to have lapsed, everyone seems to be getting in on the process. Ball has gone one step further and made its own ‘mu-metal’ anti-magnetic alloy.

    £2,730; ballwatch.com

  • Tudor North Flag

    Once known as Rolex’s little, budget brother, Tudor has now stepped up a gear by producing an in-house movement, the MT5621. Handily, it has 70 hours’ power reserve, and this first incarnation will weather sub-zero conditions.

    £2,500; tudorwatch.com

  • Pinion Axis Bronze

    This new kid on the British-watch block was set up three years ago, with all the timepieces designed, finished, assembled and tested in the brand’s Oxfordshire HQ. The beautifully made bronze cases will each take on a unique patina.

  • Bell & Ross WW1-97 Heritage

    A sleeping highlight of the Chanel-owned utility brand’s 2015 range, this is a handsome power-reserve update of Bell & Ross’s sepia-tinted WW1 – inspired by the trench watches of the Great War.

    £2,700; bellross.com

  • Nomos Glashütte Minimatik

    Fitted with the German brand’s new slimline auto movement, the Minimatik gets a delicate new case designed by Studio Hannes Wettstein and a numeral design inspired by inkblots.

    £2,600; nomos-glashuette.com

  • Longines Heritage Diver 1967

    Ever since 2007’s Legend Diver, Longines has reminded us annually of its colourful past with the Heritage range. This year is another Sixties waterbaby, fitted with the brand’s own mechanical chrono.

    £2,060; longines.com
