In today’s video, I react to a recent episode on the Alpha M channel, where Aaron Marino discusses brands that in his opinion are a ripoff. Included in his list is Omega, and what makes this statement even more interesting is not only Aaron’s own controversial relationship with the watch community but also his profound love of Rolex. As many of you know, I’ve loved and enjoyed Rolex throughout the years, but recently I’ve changed my tune, as I doubt I’ll ever buy one again. With this context, I share why I disagree with Aaron and actually think Omega is the complete opposite in that they offer the best value when it comes to Swiss luxury watches on the market in 2023. Join me for an in-depth look at Omega, why our opinions on the brand differ, and false narratives about luxury watches on social media, along with a look at some hidden gems from Omega and why the brand is so much more than 007 Bond Seamasters and space-going Speedmasters. What do you think about Omega watches?
