Omega and Rolex will remain sponsors of sport events.

I love a good timepiece.

The handwork and exactitude are of such nicety and Apple can’t ever compete.

It’s an Iphone on the wrist and not something to trust your life with.

Still an amazing bit of tech.

I agree! I will take a watch with an hour and minute hand over digital any time. I can look at the hands and see the future of where I am expected be in a glance!

I seem to remember a quote by a computer pioneering legend back in the 1970s about everybody will have an IBM 360(370?) on their wrist.

Can't remember the guy. Must have been a hardware guy that stayed in the corporate world (as opposed to Cray, Amdahl, etc.)
