i think most believe that the holy trinity are VC, AP and PP....Lange is a contender too...

for those ultra rich.....vianney, RM, MBF, gruebel forsey will be their fav brands...

for me...a PP/AP is good enough...

I voted Blancpain simply because not of the brand but just  for it's FF

I do not have a particular fave brand ...jsut particular models that i wanna have. so ...my vote is kinda pointless i guess :D

being a rough and tumble guy.. i only go for sports models... :Laughing_on_floor: the type of watches you can wear and take on the world!!!  :Dancing_banana:

I really wanted to vote for Seiko, with their Spring Drive, Credor and Grand Seiko luxury range. Orient with their Orient Star and Royal Orient can certainly give the Swiss companies a run for their money. Citizen's Campanola range of hand finished quartz watches certainly is worthy of our attention. How come the Japanese luxury brands are not on the list?  ???

Quite true Danny, at least the Grand Seiko and Credor range should be up there.
Has anyone seen a Credor in person before?

Come to think of it, some model name listed here. Heard about it, some name -  could not even pronounce it properly, let alone dream about it. Then how to vote?..... :Blue:

Maybe, I am native and have not seen the world (is not enough)  :Confused:

No offence made.........

Just my 2 cts worth

Yeah ... I probably should have included the Japanese watch makers as well but this is just a general perception about brands.  I also didn't include Tag, Oris, etc.  I like the Seiko Spring Drive but Seiko is hardly my dream brand!
