Omega Production #s
This hodinkee article is stating annual production around ~156,000. I’m pretty surprised by that number being so low, I always assumed more in the 500k range. Good article- https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/sw...ture-tour-2019

That's not what I read in the article.
"Here we see industrial, not artisanal, production. Omega produces 3,000 watches a day, Aeschlimann tells us." You must have read 3,000 a week? 52 x3,000 = 156,000 |

Is it then 800.000 watches per annum or 1.1000.000 watches? Anyway, Omega is probably producing more watches than anyone else - Rolex included. ;)

I'd bet less than 780,000. figure 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year. MINUS holidays.
If so, isn't rolex closer to 1 million? |
