I remember people were saying how Seiko lost an opportunity when shinzo Abe, prime minister of Japan, wore an omega constellation during a promo of the 2020 Tokyo Olympic games at the end of the Rio games. Seiko didn't lose an opportunity. He was required to wear it because Omega is the official timekeeper of the Olympic games. He was not allowed to wear his Seiko watches. Kinda off topic but this video brought up that topic.

@@aahchoo1 I don't blame Swatch...I would do it too. At least he wore my favorite Omega. It makes sense. Omega paid a ton of money to be the official timekeeper of the Olympics. Their logo is plastered everywhere in each Olympic stadium...seen by billions of people...that is not cheap. Additionally, the only watch commercials during the Olympics are Omega. Imagine if Nike paid the producers of Back to the Future to have their product featured and then as a promo for the sequel Marty McFly ditched his Air Mags and worst Boost...it wouldn't make sense. It's just marketing. Shinzo owns several Omega watches on his own anyways. Though I think he much prefers Seiko since he owns a ton of models and wears them the most frequently.
