I am a marketing expert and I think this hurts Omega's brand at a time when it was prospering the most from the current Rolex situation. It was poised to really be accepted by the WIS community as a viable alternative. Ridicule by those in the know is never good. Plus, those who never thought of a luxury watch and buy it because it's $250.00, aren't exactly the target demo for Omega.
Maybe I'm just too personally biased. I hate the whole thing.
