Where to buy watches

Sadly no longer online: the definitive 24 hour watch web site was André’s. It featured a comprehensive list of every available 24 hour watch, and records of every 24 hour watch ever made. You might be able to find some information using the wayback machine

For general buying advice, the best place to go is the 24 hour watch forum at watchuseek. These guys know their watches!

There’s a wide range of 24 hour watches available for sale. You can spend a little or a lot on any watch – from $5 to $500,000 – and 24 hour watches are no different. The basic categories are as follows:

  • inexpensive Russian mechanical
  • inexpensive quartz
  • more expensive mechanical/quartz

Here are just a few examples of watches you can buy. For more ideas, browse the other pages of this site.

Inexpensive quartz

AAA Watch club

To start your collection, buy one – or collect the complete set – of the 24 hour quartz watches from the AAA Watch club. The AAA watch club is a great source for new and inexpensive 24 hour analog quartz watches. You can buy men’s and ladies’ watches, with leather or metal straps, and even with noon on the top (rare!).

Here’s the new Alpha range:

These new models keep the three symbols (Air, Land and Sea) but now as morse code on the dial. Features include: a new BIG (43 mm) Case (15mm Thick), a Screw-Down Crown and date indicator at the “south east” position that’s easy on the wrist, and 10 ATM (300 Feet) Water Resistant, plus a Leather Band with matching colour stitches; super LumiNova Hands and luminous Hour Markers; a dome of mineral glass – and dial with two shades representing day and night.

This Hummel watch is finely finished and inexpensive at 55 Euros. Unusually, they’ve chosen the noon at the top design:
