On the other hand, Omega is perilously stretching its market reach, trying both to sell $200 MoonSwatches on the low-end to an almost $500k super luxury watch.

Rolex doesn't deal in the super low, or the super high, and because of that, they are a strong brand, with strong messaging and market segment.

Omega may be trying to do too much at the same time and may not succeed in bridging that gap.
Thank you, and it was a serious question (from a friend).

IMHO, it’s good when brands stretch themselves to show their level of capability and innovation.

As I said earlier … I guess Omega is damned if they do and damned if they don’t.
