What is that one watch(model) that defines a brand

[Bounce781]

For me:
Ulysse Nardin - Maxi Marine Chronometer (white dial) 41mm
Fortis - B-42 Official Cosmonaut Chrono
JLC - Reverso Or Master Ultra Thin 34mm

My $0.02

up for discussion

For me, Rolex- daytona, submariner and Datejust

IMHO some brands could be more strongly associated with distinctive traits rather than watches per se. While it may dilute the topic, I prefer to see it from the perspective of unique value proposition...

For instance, I think the Rolex sub would be its definitive model with timeless design, but for Pams I view the trademark crown guard as the defining characteristic (rather than a specific model). Panerai got so many models, one man's meat is another man's poison... like if I said the Egiziano is definitive, many would agree but many would also object on basis of its unwearibility, no?

[psee]

For me:

ALS: Lange 1
AP: RO / ROO
Blancpain: FF
Breguet: La Tradition
Hublot: Big Bang
IWC: BP
JLC: Reverso
Omega: Speedy
Pam: Luminor / 1950 casing
Rolex: Sub

[redneckk]

my 2 cents worth:

rolex: DateJust
JLC: Reverso
Omega: Speedmaster Moonwatch
Tag Heuer: Monaco
Zenith: El Primero
IWC: Portuguese
Patek Philippe: Nautilus
AP: Royal Oak (not ROO)
Breguet: La Tradition
Hublot: Big Bang
Chopard: any L.U.C.
Lange: Lange 1

[overcrash]

[commoner]

OK, if you can only get buy 1 watch each from brands you love, 1 brand 1 watch, what will you get. I know my choice

Rolex : Day/Datejust Solid brushed gold
Omega : James Bond Seamaster Limited Edition
Patek : Nautilus
AP : Bumble Bee Royal Oak
Galusette : Senator
Oris : Big Crown
Corum : Golden Bridge
Hamilton : MIB triangle
IWC : Ingenieur

Total damage :120k?

sorry folks, currently vaccinated against Pam virus, not going or ready to be infected by Pam contagion yet.

Iconic Models

here's my 5cents worth:

Ulysse Nardin - 41m Maxi Marine Chronometer-white dial-BEST WATCH EVER!
Stowa - Flieger Original (no date/no logo)
Bell Ross - BR 01-92
JeanRichard - TV Screen
Azimuth - Spaceship PVD (wicked)

[Wenda]

I think the Samurai took precedence... Those Spring Driver or Credor or Premier is not as common and not easily identifiable. Maybe Monster will make it there too.
