Although Switzerland is known as the world's premier watchmaking country, watch brands offering luxury watches equipped with Swiss-made movements, making them extremely reliable, can also be found in various other countries.

Van Speyk Courage Gold CGG-B watch

A prime example of such a watch brand is the progressive Dutch brand Van Speyk. The Van Speyk watches originated from a passion for watches and is, moreover, a family business with extensive experience in the field of luxury watches. The watches in the Van Speyk collection are not only of very high quality but also feature a highly appealing design. The watches are equipped with Swiss movements, and the best materials have been chosen for their use. For instance, the brand uses 316L stainless steel for the watch cases, and the watches feature beautiful straps made of Italian calf leather. Furthermore, sapphire glass is used for Van Speyk watches. This type of glass is extremely strong, meaning you will not easily see damage on the glass. The watches in the Van Speyk collection are further characterized by their beautiful and unique details. For instance, the brand offers models equipped with a beautiful ‘open heart’ on the dial, making the movement visible. Additionally, within this brand’s ‘Courage’ series, you will find designs featuring an appealing moon phase indicator on the dial. Van Speyk also opts for so-called sunray or sunburst dials, which create the illusion of sunbeams. The transparent case backs featured on Van Speyk watches are also captivating and make these special timepieces truly unique. Furthermore, thanks to the excellent price-quality ratio the brand offers, you can be sure that you are purchasing your Van Speyk watch at a fair price.

The story of Davosa began as early as 1861, when Abel Frédéric Hasler developed small series of silver watches alongside his work as a farmer. At that time, his brothers founded a watch factory in Geneva and in Biel. His sons also learned the watchmaking trade and found their passion in it. Paul Hasler was one of those sons. This marked the beginning of Davosa's remarkable journey; today, Davosa is a brand with a long and impressive history. Moreover, through its years of experience, the brand has managed to build up the necessary know-how and expertise, with which they continue to develop watches for true watch enthusiasts with passion and enthusiasm to this day. This is, therefore, what the brand's philosophy revolves around. In addition, the brand encourages wearers and enthusiasts of Davosa watches to enjoy the moment.
