Many people have been struggling with the two brands of Omega and Tudor, but in fact, Tudor and Omega are completely different from each other.

Although Tudor and Omega are now in the same level, in fact, from history, the technical rudder is still not up to Omega. What TUDOR has is a strong endorsement from Rolex, a sub-brand that Rolex wanted to enter the low-end watch market. Due to the urgency, at first the Tudor shell was made of a Rolex shell, and even the head was a Rolex case, that is, the movement was made of ETA2824, which was finely polished by Tudor.

Omega, on the other hand, has developed from the era of pocket watches to the present, when Rolex was still a younger brother and often used other people's movements to assemble pocket watches. Omega has a long history and superb watchmaking technology, even Rolex was looking to Omega back then, not at all in a grade, Omega only used someone else's movement is the 960 movement of the later pocket watch, but the overall performance, fine-tuning device, bridge, etc. have improved a lot. What about Tudor? I still used the 2824 and 2836 movements, which have not changed for decades, and then polished them myself, without one of my own independent technologies.

But now TUDOR also has its own in-house movements, CAL.8050, MT5612, MT5621, MT5402, MT5652 and so on, 70-hour power reserve, chronometer certification. TUDOR would not have been able to develop without Rolex's strong backstage and technical capabilities, and his design inspiration was based on Rolex.

EVEN THOUGH OMEGA BELONGS TO THE SWATCH GROUP, WHICH MAINLY PRODUCES WELL-KNOWN LOW-END BRANDS, THERE ARE ALSO SOME HIGH-END WATCH BRANDS. But Omega has always been unique in people's minds, because he has been on the moon, the Omega Seamaster is also a very popular model, and it has a long history of watchmaking, as early as the 50s and 60s to produce automatic movements with red meat with shock absorption.

OMEGA's unique Co-Axial escapement and high anti-magnetic technology are unmatched by Rolex movements, and although the stability is slightly worse than that of the Rolex Caliber 3135, the design of the movement in terms of polish and aesthetics is much better than that of Rolex.

Finally, Omega is produced according to Rolex, and many diver's watches have Omega's technology a grade higher than Rolex's. However, the Rolex name has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and in recent years, Rolex watches have become extremely popular, and Omega is not as good as Rolex in terms of value preservation and appreciation.

Therefore, in terms of movement technology and design, Omega is still much higher than TUDOR, and TUDOR is still a continuously castrated version of Rolex positioning, which has greatly limited its development and brand positioning. I hope to see independent TUDOR design and high-end movement know-how in the future.
