Batavus made a least some "high end" bikes. I recently saw a Batavus from around 1980 that had an all Dura-Ace drivetrain, Dura-Ace hubs, and a very light frame. It weighs about 21 pounds, similar to what the team bikes weighed in the Tour de France in that era.

For some reason, Batavus bikes seem very rare in the USA. Has anyone owned or seen a high end Batavus in the USA?
