Come to the Boston, they are everywhere....

In Response To: Seamaster losing prestige ()

Seems like everyone and their brother is getting on the SMP bandwagon here, most if not all of them I have seen out and about are quartz, I generally see many more Bond style but have also seen a good deal of the black black model. I have seen them on anyone from high end execs, to the cashiers at Target, a young teenager working at the bannana republic outlet, a guy that works the hot dog stand...and the list goes on...I find it funny as many used to slam Rolex for having too much brand exposure, or at least too much for anyone to truly consider them an "enthusiasts" brand....I think if you had posted this on the TZ public forum you might have gotten responses that were a little more honest...but it does seem to me at least that Omega watches through their marketing and their pricing are getting to be much more mainstream, still not as common as say Tag Heuer or Movado, but I have seen at least 100 Seamasters in the past three months out and about in the downtown area of Boston, not to mention the numerous constellations that are out and about, generally in their TT form.
