Using Your Crystal Ball

Which watch manufacturer will be seen as THE premier watch brand that everyone aspires to own in 2050?

And you can't say Rolex

If by "everyone" you mean the general public, I'd think that it would be the manufacturer that spends the most on advertising, if it's not Rolex, then it'll be Omega or Tag Heuer.

That's just the way the market works. Out of sight, out of mind. The most visible brand will prevail. As long as some popular actor/sportsman/professional endorses the product, sales will inevitably shoot up regardless of the product's actual merit.
