Omega Production #s

This hodinkee article is stating annual production around ~156,000. I’m pretty surprised by that number being so low, I always assumed more in the 500k range. Good article- https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/sw...ture-tour-2019

That's not what I read in the article.

"Here we see industrial, not artisanal, production. Omega produces 3,000 watches a day, Aeschlimann tells us."

You must have read 3,000 a week? 52 x3,000 = 156,000

That makes much more sense and thanks for the clarification!

Is it then 800.000 watches per annum or 1.1000.000 watches? Anyway, Omega is probably producing more watches than anyone else - Rolex included. ;)

I'd bet less than 780,000. figure 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year. MINUS holidays.

If so, isn't rolex closer to 1 million?
