Ten entry-level watches that won us over in 2024

Herbelin Cap Camarat Diver automatic: compressor type diver with a supercharged look
The French watchmaker Herbelin continues the development of its Cap Camarat collection with the arrival of a supercharged diver equipped with a 42 mm “compressor” type case in steel (or black DLC steel), water-resistant to 200 meters and equipped with an automatic three-hand day and date caliber. A very attractive French diver and a piece with a successful design starting at 1,200 euros.
BeauBleu Second French: mysterious second hand
The French watchmaker BeauBleu unveiled a particularly successful model in 2024: the Seconde Française which still features its round hour and minute hands with, in addition, a round “second hand” which seems to float above the railway line. its dial.
A very nice effect for this almost mysterious second! A watch in a limited edition of 888 copies which seems significantly more expensive than its selling price starting at 1,490 euros.
Fossil Sketch Disney Mickey Mouse: hour sketch
Many brands now offer watches with Mickey, but this limited and numbered edition from Fossil, equipped with a 40 mm steel case with a Japanese automatic caliber, is particularly successful with the famous little mouse presented in the form of a charcoal drawing with its two arms which indicate the time.
A beautiful achievement and a very contained value for money positioning. For those who still have a child’s soul and because not everyone has the means to afford a Genta. Count 449 euros
Genius “Homage” to Gérald Genta: 50/50 sport-chic watch
The Swiss watch brand Genius offers a tribute watch to Gérald Genta which is astonishing to say the least since it is made up of two parts which take up the design of the best-known and most sought-after sport-chic watches in the world! At the top the Nautilus and at the bottom the Royal Oak.
In just a few months, this watch has become a real phenomenon in the cozy world of luxury watchmaking, establishing itself on the market as a real snub – albeit respectful – to the establishment! In the 39 mm mechanical steel version, count 2,950 euros.
Eska Amphibian: the return of a legendary diver
Two watch enthusiasts and collectors, Sinicha Knezevic and Christophe Chevreton, have decided to relaunch the Swiss watch brand Eska with the return to the market at the start of 2024 of an extremely rare diver, the Amphibian.
This is a “pure” vintage model (in the same style as the first Blancpain Fifty Fathoms) which has since been marketed in various special and limited editions. Around 1,000 euros with Sellita calibers.
