But that doesn't change the fact that they do an excellent job with quality. IMO their Co-Axial Master Chronometer movements blow away anything Rolex makes and aesthetically their watches are every bit as attractive (if not more) than any Rolex. Throw in the fact that their watches are readily available at most ADs and with a discount makes them far more attractive to the watch collector than a Rolex.

Rolex does a great job at marketing a great product. But it's product isn't any superior to Omega. Sorry. It's not.

Just my humble opinion.
Totally agree!
