OMOLOGATO Watches

Recommended Posts

ShamiK

Hi Everyone,

 

I am the owner of OMOLOGATO watches and would love to know what you guys think to the brand. For those of you who care, I have cleared this thread with Greg_R.

 

Firstly we love making watches and secondly we love Motorsport and that's why I started OMOLOGATO.

 

A little about us.

 

We've been making watches for over 25 years for brands such as Audi, Rolls Royce and AMG for retail. All movements are made by Miyota, we use the OS20, as used by the likes of TW Steel, so they are ultra reliable Japanese movements. Our watches are also all hand assembled, so quality is checked at every stage.

 

I am very keen to make sure our range is affordable as there are so many Motorsport brands who offer watches but at prices most can't really afford without thinking about it for months on end!

 

Our website is http://www.omologatowatches.com

 

We are based in England.

 

Hate it or love it....I would love to hear from you!

I do like the designs although I personally probably wouldn't pay that much for a quartz, but I suppose it is a fair enough price for a watch hand assembled in the UK. Now if it was mechanical then I'd be interested

I like the Racing Chrono 24 dial but think it would also look good in the stainless case (not a huge fan of black watch cases). The strap is nice too.

if we did automatics from the start then our prices would be more around £500, which I think is too much for a new brand

I like the design! Cars and a bit of panerai in the case shape. 2 things i like

 

But, no offense here, the price is a bit too high for what i would pay for a quartz watch.

 

Good luck with the brand! I'll keep an eye on it for some automatics or even handwind if you ever produce some

Having seen the full range, there are some nice looking watches there. As someone else has mentioned, would be very much interested if they were mechanical rather than quartz.......

 

....any plans along this line?

We aim to do so in about 12 months when the brand is more established and the people will pay £400-£500 a watch....

All feedback is appreciated and I'm too thick skinned to take any offence :)....A lot of the money spent making these watches is on getting the faces made, sometimes with up to 8 colours as well as contrast stitches on the straps...on 2 of the ranges we have to also pay royalties to use names and colours.

Would love to but can't as we have to pay the Copyright owners royalties.....

Lug to lug is 22m and its the OS20 movement - same as TW Steel

.....I think that 22mm is the lug width, I was interested in the lug to lug measurement, which with a case diameter of 44mm should be in the 50mm region? It just gives me an idea of how well it would fit my wrist.

Mmm . . .

 

Nice looking watches you have there. I think the quartz movement will be a sticking point.

 

I just paid £280 for this. Mechanical Miyota movement, superb build quality, industrial lume. This is what you are up against:

Thats a lovely watch. We started this brand on June 8th 2015 and since then we've achieve approx 6 months worth of sales in 8-9 weeks....when our volumes allow us to we will start the automatics...but our selling point is also the Motorsport liveries. Please do check back in a few months though

Oh sorry - read that wrong - it's 45.5mm

I'm slightly puzzled why a new brand would appear on a replica forum. Brand clients and partnerships and being associated with replica sites that deal in illegal watches is clearly not a marriage your partners and clients would find acceptable. Sorry but for me this just simply doesn't stack up.

If you wanted to sell something young Ben I would suggest that the old adage, 'any port in a storm' may suffice?

True one would seek as many routes to market as possible and the internet its forums and social media sites represent the most powerful potential for marketing and PR. However partnerships with brands and this place we love are 100% incompatible.

Only reason was so many of the members here were clicking on our website, so I thought I'd make myself known. We all love watches don't we?

I get your logic, but anyone visiting the site will be blissfully unaware of any association or otherwise with us.
