Besides just being everywhere it's generally the first thing that comes to mind for most of those not even shopping for one.

I feel sorry for folks who think Rolex is the only brand to own, sure are missing out on a lot of cool watches.
Of note, the Seiko sub-forum here is quite active.

Good point! All the different brands are giving their unique touch for us to enjoy. Different perspectives, history, legacy...
