Pretty interesting figures there, Thomas. Surprising quite how many COSC movements Rolex produce, and also quite surprising how few Tag do considering the number of watches they must sell. Granted more than half of their range is non-chronometer quartz, but additionally not many of their automatic range are chronometer rated. (Even as a Tag owner I always feel they struggle next to other "prestige" brands).

130K for Breitling seems like a 'nice' number to me - big enough to provide confidence in the company, but small enough to still retain that air of being different from the norm that appeals to us so much - especially considering that the Breitling number reflects total production.

I don't know what historic numbers are, but it's kinda cool to think that a company that has been around for almost 125 years has probably produced fewer than 10 million watches - that's one watch per 600 or so people on the planet at this moment.

Or maybe it's just me that thinks that's cool :?

TAG Heuer is new in the top 10 group.

They hardly produced COSC certified watches at all.

Nope, it's not just you - I think it's pretty cool too! 8)

I have different figures straight off the FHS website:

Rolex (710,752)
Omega (257,187)
Breitling (182,223)
Panerai (46,454)
Chopard (23,462)
Ulysse Nardin (10,111)
Corum (8,189)
TAG Heuer (7,450)
Chanel (6,980)
Mido (5,722)
Porsche Design (3,892)
Bulgari (3,698)
Ebel (3,516)
Montblanc (3,471),
Invicta (2,717)
Titoni (2,018)
Zenith (1,917)
Rado (1,805)
Eterna (1,706)
Enicar (1,672)
Paul Picot (1,638)
Sinn (1,596)
Christian Dior (1,100)

I have a feeling the numbers that Thomas provided may only be for Mechanical watches, and does not include the Quartz watches that were certified. That is 30% of Breitling's output! Check out my blog post here:
