what I meant by 'flagship' is that this is the watch that is affordable to the general public at a price that is reachable. of course, there is the tourbillon watch at $100k+, and there is the basic 111, 005 at $5k, but have you seen 111 or 005 being advertised in magazines? No... 372 is the one, hence i consider it as the 'flagship'. i understand definition can be different.

Many companies advertise their top models, they are promoting the brand more than trying to sell that particular model. Car ads are the worse offenders, they will show one of their top model cars but the price on screen is for their base model, with maybe a disclaimer at the bottom of the screen saying the model being advertised is not the one shown.
