Cartier is recognised for its precise lines, the use of bright metals, and distinctive Roman numerals in its watch designs. The brand's horological selection is described as well-established, extending beyond its well-known models.

Piaget, a Swiss watchmaker, is highlighted for its designs featuring panache, clean lines, and vibrant luxury. The Piaget Sixtie model is specifically mentioned as being water-resistant, lightweight, and graceful, with a navy blue alligator leather strap noted as a finishing detail.

Casio is praised for its successful combination of style and affordability, a rarity in the fashion industry. The brand is characterised as understated and embodying a sense of nonchalant cool. One model, with a retro aesthetic and bracelet strap, is noted as reminiscent of 1980s style.
