It is almost a year now since Omega last raised their prices by 10%. Although this is well above inflation it appears to be quite conservative when compared with rivals like Omega and Breitling. This price gap is widening. As most luxury watch buyers are not very knowledgeable in movements etc they generally assume that price is directly proportional to quality. Do you believe therefore that Omega's value for money is detrimental to the prestige of the brand as they more likely to be perceived as equal to the similarly priced models made by the likes of Tag rather than more expensive manufacturers like Breitling. I appreciate that Rolex are a marketing exception. Its only a thought but my stir some debate.
