Other than Rolex, Patek, AP, & VC, list your top 5 favorite brands. Here’s mine in no particular order:

  1. Omega

  3. Tudor
  4. JLC
  5. IWC

Let’s see your list!

  1. Marathon
  2. Christopher Ward
  3. Damasko
  4. Timex
  5. Citizen

My favourite brands all occupy the lower end of the price spectrum, since I can own and enjoy watches from them. I appreciate other brands like JLC, Breguet, Lange, etc., but since I'll likely never own one, they aren't a favourite.

Great list! I’m noticing that Nomos has been gaining popularity. I haven’t had the chance of handling one in the metal but I’ve been hearing wonderful things about it.

I've been a fan since I got my first Citizen back in 2007. They make a lot of "mall watches", but those are what sells.

Nice! I would definitely include Longines and Citizen if my list expanded to my Top 10 favorites.

Including GS in your list tells me that you appreciate craftsmanship at its finest. 👍🏼

Seiko/GS, Omega, Casio/G-Shock, Tudor, and maybe Citizen or Hamilton for last place. Can't decide...

And I think it meaningless to excluded Rolex, AP and so on. I bet there aren't many who would habe them on their list in here?

Solid list! Yeah, I excluded those brands right off the bat because they would seem to be the “cookie cutter” response for some.

I truly have to check out Nomos in the metal. It’s awesome that these lists evolve as new watches come out from manufacturers. Happy hunting!
