Probably Sinn, Archimede, Laco, Stowa, Damasko, M.A.T, Forban, the list can easily continue but basically any brands that needs some research to be known and wont be known by an instagram ad of some sort

(IMO the price of a watch doesnt attest of any knowledge or interest as everyone knows Rolex and Omega but few know about Vostok)

Sinn. It's like a secret society. If you know, you know.

I believe the word you are looking for is ‘cognoscenti’

From the Latin meaning 'the smell of cogs'.
