Have you felt fatigued by a particular ⌚ brand?

But do you really? ( ducks ! )

I do like Omega and probably always will.

Along with Jaeger-LeCoultre, Omega has disappointed me, but the loyalty is real.

It is just that only so many iterations can exist before interest fades.

Oh look, same watch different color

Tag Tag Tag.shitty boring designs

AP, definitely. They basically have 1 watch.

That is one I overlooked and a classically fatigued brand.

True, but is there a brand you may like that has burnt out?

Yeah. . .that is the prevailing trend.

I cannot expect new mechanisms or ⌚ every year from every brand, but some brands have quite a cash reserve and recycle the same ⌚.

Maybe this particular ⌚ brand may update a mechanism, but they memorialize the eighties with the same design from the eighties.

Yes it's about time Omega bought out another Speedmaster. Did you know it went to the moon? ....

They would do well to consider acquiring a struggling brand, like Baume et Mercier - even if it is part of the Richemont Group.

Ultimately, mergers and acquisitions in this industry could introduce bug changes and efficiently.

Only Breitling has decided to execute this strategy.

Before all of the Rolex acolytes start barking about the acquisition of Bucherer, Rolex has done nothing interesting since the eighties.

Omega has at least made changes to case designs for their models.

Omega? I thought the Rolex Sub brings the most fatigue. It's design has been copied by hundreds and I see it in about 90% of watch-related posts. Kinda sickening already to be honest.

I was trying to highlight a brand I admired.

You are indeed correct.

I want to 🤢 when I see Rolex models because they are old, copied, and overrated by owners who can be, but are not always, vapid and tasteless.

I have not managed to love Zenith watches; in fact, I feel absolutely nothing when I wear one. But, the one brand that brings me actual fatigue is Breitling! I have yet to find a single watch in their entire catalog that brings me an iota of joy or admiration. Just not for me ...

Tudor.

How many times can they rehash the Sub homage 🥱😴💤

Would have to be Seiko then

Wanna buy one? Lol

I rather get a gshock if I wanted a plastic watch🤣

I read your collective responses to mean 1) one or more Rolex owners were arrogant or less than kind and 2) you resent the brand’s success based on its lineup and embellishments.

These are all fair I suppose. Personally, I try to stay emotionally detached when it comes to watches though it’s not easy.

I resent how Rolex has corrupted the market with their unsavory tactics.

This is not emotional but FACT.

If you disagree, then ask yourself how the ⌚ market has changed throats after COVID.

Before you say that was independent of Rolex, remember that Rolex used cartel tactics to produce artificial demand that spilled over into the entire market.

How does a ⌚ brand hold its customers ransom and boast its success?

Honestly, a rational consumer would move on and did only to drive up demand for other brands.

Plus, its lineup is downright hackneyed.

You Rolex people always like to vomit non sequiturs because of insecurity.

I don’t own a Rolex. Your emotional outbursts make me question your logic is all

Again with the non sequiturs.

Candor does not equal emotion.

Please consult definitions before public aspersions, particularly when irrelevant.

I am not casting any aspersions. I’m just taking the other side of the argument. I can’t help if your writing style betrays a certain animosity towards the brand and its consumers. It’s just a watch dude.

As I said, candor is not emotion.

I think we’ve misunderstood each. I wish you well.

Whatever.

Bye.

Lol.

🤨

Nothing my friend. This has been an interesting discussion. Let’s move on.

Interesting, how?

You have been libelous in your claims when I merely expressed discontent with Rolex and its consumer base.

I have no obligation to like any brand let alone Rolex, which was not even the brand I brought up in this post as a fatigued ⌚ maker.

Regardless of what Rolex releases, I will not like them, hence disqualifying it as a brand that will fatigue me because I will not like anything they release.

If others do, that is fantastic.

Yet, cartel tactics led by Rolex have corrupted prices through artificial demand that lead other brands to be short on supply as a result of not being able to get Rolex ⌚.

That is not acceptable for any brand.

As for their core consumer base, well. . .it is not a mystery who tends to buy these ⌚ routinely, and these folks will boast needlessly about everything in their lives.

If such people do not bother you, then good for you because you have more patience than I do.

I simply cannot countenance chicanery and narcissists.

Ok. I didn’t defame you. You’re being overly sensitive imo. You’re entitled to your opinion. You’re also entitled to present opinion as fact but such statements are open to criticism. You are also free to throw around insults. As you can tell, I didn’t take the bait. I tried to end this conversation politely. However, you seem to like to have the last word. Let me grab my popcorn.
