Still owned by the Dreyfuss family and I am talking about the watches not the pricing policy. Look at the Rotary Les Originales Heritage range.Īccurist and Sekonda make some solid VFM watches, a.d Avia watches can still be found. The Dreyfuss and Les Originales are Swiss, good, and far from cheap. They have the high street stuff, the online "Dreyfuss" J&T Windmills and probably a few other brands and numerous confusing lettering on their dials to convince the buyer they are some unbroken Swiss made brand.Īccurist as far as I know are a cheap high street brand as are Sekonda. Sekonda were another 70s/80s brand using Russian (Soviet) movements (Remember that ad where they had a Sekonda watch going through all manner of abuse and comparing them to a certain high end Swiss brand)Īs for the modern stuff, Rotary I think were sold recently to some Chinese company and are frankly all over the place. If you are lucky you can also come across some nice vintage Rotary watches that are good and they had a few decent sports watches that are quite collectable. You often find a few quartz ones that are very "of the time" too.
They were generally quite conservative watches usually dress type stuff.
To me Rotary, Avia, Accurist etc are brands from the 70s that were half decent back then very often making gold cased watches with off the shelf Swiss movements.
