One morning, all your watches are missing. You realise that you need 3 watches for all occasions. It has to be 3 different brands, new (still in production) and you have to pay for them yourself. Which brands will you choose? |

I went for JLC, Omega (  ) and Rolex ( )My basic reasoning was simply that these manufacturers currently produce 3 watches that I really REALLY want. JLC make the Master Compressor Extreme World Chronograph, Omega make the Ploprof 1200, and Rolex make the SeaDweller Deapsea. If my current collection vanished, these are the 3 I'd buy without hesitation. |

Well using the same criteria as Driver8, I selected Omega and Others. Others would be two different makes, hence why I only provided two options. |

My votes were Breitling, Rolex and IWC. Breitling because I love the brand, it represents my first foray into luxury watches and because there are very good personal memories attached. A Navitimer would be the model; I'll always have a Breitling in the collection. IWC because that's my next big purchase- currently I'm looking at a Portuguese. I also like the brand a lot. Rolex becuase one day I'd like to own a DSSD. A good size for me and a great watch! |

I went with Breitling (SA), Rolex (SD DS) and IWC (Big Pilot's Watch). I currently own the first one and the other two are on my wish list. |

Omega, IWC and Panerai. JLC was unlucky to miss out, but I think if I hadn't have something from the other 3 I would really miss them. I ignored 'other' because that opens up too many possibilities for my head to deal with on a Friday morning. |

1) Breitling -- still the brand that "sings" to me most 2) Rolex -- DSSD 3) Pam -- looking at lots of straps lately, so maybe a basic Pam w large selection of straps (hey, straps r IMPORTANT part of a watch, no?) |

I went with - Seiko (note the OP says "you have to pay for them yourself" ) - Breitling = all occasions - Omega = all occasions + SCUBA diving By the way, I was surprized to see Breitling only has 29% of the vote. Although the highest portion, still I would have expected slightly higher then that...

I think 2 years ago, or even 1 year ago, you probably would've found that Breitling would've been up there with probably 70 or 80%. Over the last couple of years though, the appeal of this forum has broadened quite a bit with lots of existing watch fans joining up, and also lots of long term members have also broadened their collections and interest. |
