Default Re: Rolex, Breitling, or Tag

Brietling and Tag are both in a difficult position with ETA cutting them off from buying movements. I would look to buy either brand as soon as possible. There is likely to be big price increases on Swiss watches across the board. Same for getting an ETA movement watch serviced; do it sooner than later.

There's a lot of uncertainty in watch industry right now for many companies. The cases are made to for an ETA, so a major change would mean big dollars in tooling, engineering, etc...

Rolex is in a safe position with their own movements and Omega, Blancpain, and several others are all under the Swatch group umbrella.
