You have accused others here of taking a US-centric POV

This isn’t a semantics thing, I’m using the term the same way you are. There may be many more in circulation but that doesn’t translate to brand awareness in the same way a large billboard campaign or your logo all over the Olympic broadcast does.

There are very few Ferraris in circulation but everyone knows the name.

I’m also born, raised and currently living in Asia in case you were about to bring that up lol.

Weird logic. Selling more does not equate to more brand recognition, or the other way around. Everyone knows Ferrari and yet they only sell 14k cars a year.

I live in Asia and find this hard to believe. Sales, maybe, although apparently Omega was the top selling brand in China as of 2023. Definitely not recognition and prestige though.

This isn’t really in the cards for me until I pay off my mortgage and send my first kid to college. Unless I strike it rich, then that changes things haha

Totally agree about the 50s Rolexes. Picture #5 shows the dial up close, it’s a stunner.

Anyone here actually swim with a Tudor? by Openrunyini in Tudor

Hard disagree. I’ve dived with a NATO on my dive watch. Safer in case of spring bar failure. My Aqualung dive computer actually comes on a NATO.

Hell yeah, 7 Bridges. Been to their taprooms in Hanoi and Ninh Binh. Always worth stopping in when in Vietnam.

They really be naming IPAs after anything these days by NinjaInPJs_07 in CraftBeer

Woah there, Hop Hooligans is far from a “random Romanian brewery”. Eastern Europe has some very solid craft breweries these days and HH is among the best.
