Eye wear?!?! Why? Will you buy one? Price almost 2x of a Tom Ford, LV or other well known brands. I’m a bit worried for such “diworsification”, coined by the famous Peter Lynch, not sure what members think, now I’m really clueless 😅 ...
Dilution pollution? I think it will come down to quality

I know they are a fashion brand, but Kiton makes sunglasses just above this snack bracket and they really are of the highest quality. No cooler than a trusty pair of Ray-Bans though! But the quality is there and I suspect, or maybe hope for their sake Ome...

Thx for sharing. I have no idea what to think of it.

Would I buy one? No, as you can get glasses of Highest quality Level sunglass brands for that price. They maybe introduced the glasses to give them to you for free when buying a really expensive watch at an omega boutique, as they won‘t give price reducti...
Interesting inside story from the past on this one:
By: agyzace : May 28th, 2020-21:50
In 2005, we (as in Swiss national innovation institute, of which Swatch is a shareholder) had developed and were ready to industrialize a watch that could monitor pulse, spo2, kinetics, etc. based on reflective photoplethysmography, accelerometers, gyrosc...
That’s really interesting story and the must regret the decision...

Wearable electronics are here to stay and will only get more fancy...someday we’ll be wearing Iron-man suits as the environment has too much virus and contaminants. You’ll need sensors from high tech semiconductors to detect and alert us.

Own a lot of sunglasses...have a boat out on the water all the time. I an repeatedly disappointed with MJ’s...love the style but IMHO the workmanship sucks and the optics are OK but not as good as Oakley (try for yourself side by side) which IMHO makes a ...
I will try to be thorough so please see below...
By: holdemchamp1225 : May 28th, 2020-11:26
I have used and owned sunglasses of different brands for over 40 years. At one point, I was sponsored by Oakley during my youth as a competetive golfer and tennis player. I have owned almost EVERY model from their sports line and EVERY lens they make from...
This is so interesting and helpful (sincerely)
By: myles721 : May 29th, 2020-03:23
my problem with MJ is almost every pair I have has either broken or fallen apart and customer service was unwilling to repair without a substantial fee (which really ticked me off) or they don’t fit quite right (fall off my face when I look down) but mayb...

By: patrick_y : May 28th, 2020-09:33
It's part of a broader strategy to achieve two objectives... 1. Make Omega a lifestyle brand. Omega has been diversifying into pens, keychains, small leather goods, and leather bracelets. This is good, to leverage the brand. Tag Heuer had a line of eyewea...
That’s an interesting strategy...
By: Clueless_Collector : May 28th, 2020-13:28
And it make sense but also I’m worried about brand image because this is important. I don’t remember Mont Blanc as a watch brand than a Pen brand, similarly for Cartier or Chanel, LV, I remember them as luxury goods even though they are expanding their wa...
Ahh, I've been collecting Montblanc pens for 20 years...
By: patrick_y : May 28th, 2020-16:19
I remember collecting Montblanc pens for 20 years and 20 years ago they were very much a pen brand. But the pen industry was declining. Revenue was falling dramatically. They had to supplement the income with something else. They placed huge emphasis on w...
Very Interesting Subject...

I think “lifestyle” branding is extremely important but also extremely difficult to pull off. Omega is raising its game and rightly so. That is why I think the price is right even if they don’t sell a single pair. The sunglasses look great and I might be ...
Here's a shallow take on this lifestyle branding business..
By: Echi : May 28th, 2020-20:17
I don't think the name itself effortlessly translates to something stylish. I'd easily associate the name Omega to something technical or industrial. For example, it would seem easier on the senses to see the Montblanc brand / log on, say, a Ski jacket ra...
It’s better to improvise on what they do best and keep doing it...
By: Clueless_Collector : May 28th, 2020-22:02
Just like Rolex....no need to have many fancy complications. However, advertisement and marketing plays a key role in changing people’s mindset. Who knows someday, after seeing it for a prolong period everywhere, I will buy a pair 🙄
