A Review of Watches by David Yurman
Custom Search
If you're considering purchasing one of the new David Yurman watches available from this American jeweler, keep reading for an overview of their watch line - from price points to style.
Price Point
You can expect to pay upwards of $4000 for most brand new David Yurman watches. Some styles of watches, like the woman's stainless steel Waverly Watch can be had for as little as $1900, but this is at the low end of the price spectrum. These watches are not cheap, nor are they intended to be. They're designed and priced for high-end quality.
Quality of the Watches
David Yurman only started making watches in 1994 and when compared to the Swiss and German houses who have been creating timepieces for hundreds of years, they have a long way to go. Though these watches are high-end, they're designed more for beauty and style than function.
That said, all the timepieces are water resistant up to 100 feet, scratch resistant. They also come with a somewhat limited two-year warranty. When compared to the lifetime warranty offered by other fine watchmakers, David Yurman needs to step up and back its product with a longer warranty.
David Yurman's Style
David Yurman's watches tend to be classic style - discreet and subdued, but definitely high-quality. They're not too over the top, but rather have an understated look.
If you want a flashy, thick diamond watch or an ultra-modern and contemporary timepiece, these aren't the watches for you. However, if you're looking for a simple, high-end timepiece, they're perfect.
The Final Word
Unless you love the look and style of a particular model, then you may want to opt for a stronger, older brand as opposed to choosing one of the David Yurman watches.
The major downfall is the two-year warranty. For watches that cost well into the thousands, they should be offering a much stronger and longer guarantee.
