What Watch Brands Have You Gone Through?

[No SUBctitute]

I stole this thread from another member (and I'm sure there have been other threads like this) who mentioned what watch brands he moved through.

I went:
Timex, Casio, Swatch, fake Rolex, two Seikos, Casio again, Rolex

What watch brands have you gone through, from earliest to most recent.

[Chadridv]

Omega, Rolex, Sinn, Maratac, Seiko, Damasko, IWC, Sinn, Omega, Rolex, Panerai, Tudor, Audemars Piguet, Panerai, Rolex, Rolex, Audemars Piguet

I might have missed a brand, and I'm definitely missing watches chronologically. As you can see I go back to watch brands all the time.

Earliest? Timex indigo for me I guess. Child me went crazy for indiglo.

I don't really "move through" brands.

I've never owned a "fashion" watch though.

I might wear an omega or a Rolex more these days, but I still wear a $16 Casio fairly regularly.

Don't really have the mentality that once I was able to afford more expensive brands, the less expensive ones were beneath me.

Too many to list but first was an Indiglo

Timex, Seiko, IWC, Breitling, Omega, G Shock, Casio, Pulsar, Armitron, Sector, Raymond Weil, Movado, Tag, Citizens, Bulova, Tissot, Tudor, Baume Mercier and of course Rolex. I've prob forgotten a few...

I'm old enough so that most were bits of junk I forget. My "real" watches went Tissot (about 10 years ago) then in a single year, Tudor, Rolex, Grand Seiko. Will be pausing for a while, then another Rolex.
