GREAT QUESTION -- Planning an Answer


Kav:

This is a very interesting question, and it deserves some good responses (assuming that others also find it interesting). I just wanted to post this note to show that the question is not being ignored. I have some time on an airplane (laptop) tomorrow and will try to provide my thoughts on the comparison of the brands.

Thanks,

Jeff

: 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
