Since the watch industry is as big as it is, there are many competitors for popular watch brands throughout the market. Also, as many other companies have gone out of fashion into the watch market, it has become an extremely competitive market where all companies try to find the most innovative design, quality products and affordable prices to maximize their reach of customers from the most effective way possible.
What also needs to be considered is not only the best watch brands that only the rich and famous people can afford, for example, like an Omega, but also the watches that everyone else can afford to buy. Now the high end brands are extremely well made and the quality of these watches is unquestionable, but in terms of overall popularity they seem to miss the mark with the expensive price tags that come attached. They also seem to be very durable, meaning a person won’t have to open the yellow pages looking for a watch repair company very often.
As for the best watch brands, here is the compiled list of the most popular in 2010.
Swatch
Swatch is a fantastic company with great products that are still very popular today. The Swiss watch company has also branched out slightly so that they now offer more refined watch designs while keeping their original colorful timepieces that move with the times.
Citizen
Citizen is a well-known brand within the watch industry with a good reputation for quality watches and designs. They produce high-quality watches, with a simple yet sophisticated style, and also offer good prices to maintain a competitive edge in the market. They also recently expanded by buying a Japan-based company called Bulova, which means their productivity and size have increased significantly.
Tissot
Tissot is a long-established family business that was at the forefront of the development of the watchmaking market. They were one of the first companies to produce and market a pocket watch model in eighteen fifty-three at the mass production level. Now, today, they have been at the forefront of the technological leap by incorporating what they call T Touch technology into their watch designs.
Timberland
The Timberland brand is associated with the outdoor market and conveys product durability and reliability to consumers. They have recently been moving into the watch market and producing some very good designs that are also very well made and reliable. It is expected that they will continue to gain momentum in this market and become even more popular in the coming years.
