The great thing about percentages is that 50% of WatchCrunch said not to buy it. Either way, WC wins 🤣

I also stumbled across this reference. I'm very intrigued, but have to see it in the metal first. The sunray dial is either great or ghastly.

This looks great!

Sorry, my inner statistician/scientist is coming out.

What's your hypothesis? That every post with the tag 'Omega' should be correlated with a single Omega being sold?

Intuitively, without running a regression model, I think that's a flawed question to begin with. Especially when we consider that the price of one Omega is equivalent to 40+ swatches.

Which raises another interesting research question: Are people more likely to post more often about their more 'luxury' watches compared with their 'entry-level' watches?

I don't know the answer. But I hedge a bet people (including me) want to showcase specific brands on social media more than others. In fact, I reckon people probably wear their 'more expensive' watches more often compared to their 'less expensive' watches. And if so, means they're more likely to post about what they're wearing vs. what's in their watch box.

It's Paul Newman's watch. I want to wear "my watch."

Looks like Sydney's turning up the weather for you, mate. Hope you're enjoying my hometown.

Not a fan of the yellow/gold accents, personally.
