Let’s compare watches with cars;
Let’s start by saying Seiko is more like Toyota. Later you’ll understand why.
So we’ll begin with the Japanese brands first:
The Seiko umbrella (with Seiko, Orient, Grand Seiko and Credor) is the Toyota Corporation, with the former 2 being the Toyota line, while the latter 2 being the Lexus line. One serves the people, the other serves the affluent.
Honda and Nissan I’d say are Casio and Citizen. Reliable, affordable Japanese products that everyone could enjoy.
Timex would be Chevy or Ford, whatever you like. American represents.
Rolex is Mercedes-Benz for me. Their watches look the same, just like the Benz’s recent designs.
Omega is Audi, Benz’ competitor. Always in competition, but still falling short. Besides Audi is owned by VW, just like Omega belonging to Swatch.
Patek Philippe is the Rolls-Royce of watchmaking, and no-one should doubt that. They are the quintessential luxury watchmaker and carmaker.
Audemars Piguet. This is hard. I could say something like BMW. But to be completely honest, I see more similarity between AP and, well, DeLorean. Right now AP is famous for one model, the Royal Oak, milking it to the point the Royal Oak name could become its own brand, and people don’t really give a damn about others. Although AP has other models like the beautiful Jules Audemars dress watch, they’re all overshadowed by the RO, sadly.
Vacheron Constantin to me is Bentley. Equally luxurious as Roll-Royce, but falling short in popularity.
Comparing Hublot with Pagani would be unrightfully wrong for the latter, but deep inside they are very similar. Hublot outsources movements, while Pagani uses Mercedes engines for their cars.
Breguet and Bugatti, the French represents. Both have great history and great deal of innovation throughout their lifetime.
You’d think A. Lange and Söhne deserves something more high-end, like Roll-Royce level, but I think it is the Maybach of watchmaking. Ultra luxury cars with a hefty price tag, and exquisitely finished watches that cost as much as a conventional car. Beautiful German match.
And to wrap this up, some of the most innovative brands out there, Jaeger-LeCoultre and Tesla. JLC was once the forefront innovator of the Swiss with unique complications and incredible craftsmanship. The brand has brought and is still bringing watchmaking to a new level. Tesla is the pioneer of electric cars, and no one has beaten it in its game, while it’s got the stage for itself to show how Tesla and Elon can push electric vehicles. Both are great pioneers in their own respective craft.
