Possibly but ....
Firstly Omega offer excellent steel sports watches that don’t cost $$$$ and secondly Omega have a marketing strategy that is equally appealing to many people.
IMHO..

If there are no waiting list no premium, I think they will swing over to Rolex.. but again, after they bought the Rolex they will for sure look at Omega as second or third watches but eventually they will be wearing their Rolex more often.. hahaha of cors...
Hi captain,

My take is that for a number of reasons, Omega is imo indeed shifting perceptions favorably. Focusing on technical excellence - and innovation, it is imho a modern day Rolex. Workhorses featuring coaxial movements, superlative antimagnetism, longer than a...
Rolex vs Omega

I also think there was a little self accreditation in the remark about Rolex which is fine. However this conversion is like the Coke/Pepsi, Ford/Chevy, Mercedes/BMW versions with both sides having very valid points. Two different marketing approaches from...
R vs O

To answer your question from my viewpoint, my main Rolex dealer is 3 miles from me and I am in there regularly. They also have the Omega brand and I do not see any shift from Rolex to Omega and the AD’s confirm this to me even with the scarcity of the ste...
Cpt, to your question......

Anecdotal evidence

I was standing in front of a Wempe window when a group of young boys pushed me out of the way to ogle the Rolex. I think the brand will continue to appeal to young people because it is what their idols wear and has become a symbol of having arrived. Watch...
Agreed

and I enjoy wearing that Speedmaster for casual use now. It's comfortable, versatile and accurate. Wasn't a hit, though, as far as I could tell at the time and I have no idea what did the damage. That said, my work is tough at times.
I have no idea
By: batholith : December 12th, 2019-10:15
how that happened. No, it was not dropped. Just my usual routine wear. Admittedly, my work can get quite tough but I certainly did not knock the watch against anything any harder than normal. It was doubly unfortunate as I was seriously considering a Plop...
