Because I think the question is worded poorly, let me give my example.

For me it’s the brand name. Not its reputation or history, but just how the name sounds. For example:

Omega - association with ancient greece, and also math and physics. 10/10 would explore space with one

Cartier - sounds french and expensive, is french and expensive; perfect for if I was rich and wanted to feel rich

Baltic - reminds me of the cold Baltic sea, perfect name for a dive watch; probably one of the reasons I love the Aquascaphe so much

Names that end with “ex” - generaly sounds like you’re lazily trying to look cool (Rolex is an exception, I don’t feel strongly about it)

So yeah I know it’s dumb but the brand name is the thing that is always plastered in big letters across the dial, I feel that the name should fit the style of the watch and also myself.

    Almost all of those athletes mentioned are not american (Lewis Hamilton is an F1 driver and british) Hamilton the musical definitely is though. Strange answer

      Dunno I just saw Jordan, which is the only one I am mimimally aware of (I’m not into sports at all), so my mind just jumped to american sports celebrities. My mind just works like that sometimes.

      Hamilton is American but I’d say it was a pretty worldwide phenomenon, if you like music and are on the internet.
