Heuer - Breitling (two sides of the same coin?)

Hello,

What's your opinion about vintage Breitlings? How would you compare them to Heuers.
In my opinion the two companies have more common aspects than differences.
The collaboration for the development (and use) of the first automatic chronograph is only one of their many similarities.
They were both focusing in sports watches, they were in the same price range etc.
I think that Heuer had more brand awarness than Breitling and a more agressive marketing pilicy.

Does anyone have any thoughts or info about the relation (comparison) of Heuer and Breitling?

Regards,
Kav
