It's just some people find it cute to have a swatch that looks like an omega..
it's like those model airplanes got to scale type.. got bubble type..

Some just like the design and dont wish to spend money on a watch ...

Like i can afford, but i wont buy a watch above $1k, i do not know how to appreciate it.
So if someone comes out with a watch that is a partnership with the $1k watch, i find it ok to buy , so buy loh.

Means the person not brand conscious.. just like the design

Most expensive watch I buy is $200 Orient mechanical watch. But i also seldom wear it .. if ever... coz i dont really have habit of wearing watches.. but i like the design



Sounded like Uniqlo elephant t shirt

Is Omega a better brand or Rolex?
Both around $9,000 for basic base model.

Agreed. Even color all dropped. It's still Omega wording on watchface

Can't beat that 14s moment in history. Read how moonwatch performed in the watch trials

If you wants to wear a Omega watch buy a proper one lah. After this launched a lots of those can afford Omega watch will siam it far far away. It just tarnished their reputations build over the years.
Omega is an omega! Simi proper omega, cheap omega.

Wise words from Daniel Lim In a 2016 Interview

Daniel Lim, one of the co-founders of Reebonz, said the “aspirational middle class” - particularly in Asia - will underpin demand for personal luxury products.


I think the watch is symbolic of this middle class aspirations to own a high end luxury watch at bargain prices.
