Who is a rival to Rolex?

Answer 1

Rivals to the Rolex brand might include Omega and Breitling. Very few watches are in the same category as Rolex. Only Omega & Breitling truly rival Rolex in the number of chronometer certifications. The COSC 2006 ratings totaled 1,300,140 chronometers. The Contrôle officiel suisse des chronomètres(COSC) issued 1,300,140 certificates. In terms of manufacturers, there was no change in the leading trio which has stayed the same in recent years: Rolex (710,752 certificates), Omega(257,187), Breitling (182,223).

Next come Panerai (46,454), Chopard (23,462), Ulysse Nardin (10,111), Corum (8,189), TAG Heuer (7,450), Chanel (6,980), Mido (5,722), Porsche Design (3,892), Bulgari (3,698), Ebel (3,516), Montblanc (3,471), Invicta (2,717), Titoni (2,018), Zenith (1,917), Rado (1,805), Eterna (1,706), Enicar (1,672), Paul Picot (1,638), Sinn (1,596) and Christian Dior (1,100). All other applicants obtained fewer than 1,000 certificates. Source: Swiss Watch News
