We all know that Rolex is the most recognized brand to the average Joe. What brands do you guys and girls think are the other widely recognized brands? I personally think Tag Heuer and Omega are the next two in line.

Hotrod64 · 27 March 2007, 03:35 AM

Probably TAG-Heuer. Other brands would probably be Seiko and Citizen.

greenfan · 27 March 2007, 03:41 AM

I think OMEGA....

nko51 · 27 March 2007, 04:19 AM

The 3 Rolex AD's in my area carry Breitling and Tag Heuer.

JJ Irani · 27 March 2007, 04:23 AM

As far as recognition is concerned....definitely OMEGA!!

nko51 · 27 March 2007, 04:57 AM

I think we may have over looked the common man's watch "Timex" was everywhere in the old days.

Alex Stylianou · 27 March 2007, 04:57 AM

Omega

Solo118 · 27 March 2007, 05:25 AM

Tag, Before I knew anything about watches I wanted a Tag

oldbreadstinks · 27 March 2007, 11:12 AM

Thurnau · 27 March 2007, 12:10 PM

Aye, I do think Timex and Casio are both well recognized names.

puffnmo · 27 March 2007, 01:25 PM

Omega. The Planet Ocean is like no other watch IMHO. Larry.

Quite true, actually. And very affordable too!

santaclaus2100 · 27 March 2007, 06:37 PM

Heeyyy, I own a Casio too. Great gizmo, barometric pressure, temperature, of course time and alarms.

Too bad it cannot get me a beer from the fridge or fetch my slippers.

Solo118 · 28 March 2007, 02:50 AM

We forgot about Swatch

I would have to say that if the recognized means people look at the watch and instantly can tell what brand it is, I'd say Omega or Cartier, maybe Tag Heuer.
