But, Eleonor takes Andrew and Kristian to school, and as she runs through the origins of hardstones, intricacies of sourcing and setting diamonds and gemstones, and the various cuts utilised by many watch brands, it becomes clear that this subject, often scoffed at by male watch collectors, is far more fascinating and insightful than you might expect. Where does the added cost really come from? Is it justified? What hardstones, gemstones, and diamonds are the most and least expensive? Watch the full video to learn about it all. We promise it is very, very much worth it.Stone dial watches, gemset watches, diamond watches... You may see this headline and think this video is not for you.
