From luxury sports timepieces to designer brands and high-tech wrist watches, these are the best watches to buy in 2012

One in seven Britons might be replacing watches with new technology, but we still believe a quality time piece is an essential executive accoutrement. Serving two purposes, it makes a statement about your style and standing and it also tells you what the time is.

So, whether you flex a rugged, tech-heavy chronograph or a classic, slimline piece designed to compliment your suits, your choice of watch says a lot about you, which is why we've taken care to pick out the best watches of 2011.

1. Breitling Navitimer

Breitling's first ever timepiece, still going strong today (albeit no longer restricted to the wrists of pilots). Launched in 1952, Breitling say its circular slide rule allows its wearer to perform "all airborne navigation calculations" - don't worry, it tells the time, too.

Price: £4,500
