  • Mother of all Brands

    Somebody in this forum previously posted what is that one watch that defines a brand.

    I was just wondering if there is a watch brand that tops all watch brands.

    My take....?

    It's Rolex for me!
    The ah beng, bookie, yuppies....all can pronounce it.

    Close your eyes...you can prolly sketch out the logo.

    I can't seem to pronounce brands like Hublot, AP...even Panerai.

    Any thoughts on the above?

    How do you define " watch brands that tops all watch brands"?

    Price?
    Popularity?
    Cimplication?

    It would help to keep this thread more objective.

      Oh, Allow me to clarify,

      I'm referring to

      1) watch's local brand presence and
      2) brand recognition

        A rather subjective topic, I must say. As I am typing this, I still can't figure who my "mother" is

            i have to say it is own personal preference.

            however, as mentioned to many people, rolex is probably the only brand i know that caters to men, women, young, old, all sorts of occupation.....

                I think if you go to wikipedia, there will be 'how to pronounce' of that brand. something like
                "Audemars Piguet (AP) (French pronunciation: [o.də.maʁ pi.gɛ]) is a manufacturer of prestige Swiss watches which compete with Patek Philippe, Jaeger-LeCoultre and Vacheron Constantin."
