Day One, the canonically recommended app, doesn't even locally encrypt their entries, so basically anybody can access it despite the veneer of a password on the app.

"Radio Silence" does the same thing as this- but without subscription. And only $9.

I recommend people click into the link and read the full quote.

The quote snippet is out of context and feels like its done strategically.

You are using the same logic that would cause somebody to make statements like "Ads don't work on me because I know they're ads".

Don't treat people like they are rational, because they aren't. If you seriously think the Moonswatch isn't canabalizing Omega's brand cache- just ask yourself: If Casio put out the exact same product with the exact same design, would people be lining up to buy it?

You don't actually need to answer that, because as somebody else pointed out, the Pagani Speedmaster already tried it, and it clearly didn't work.

People aren't buying this because they like the design, they are buying it for the Omega logo.

Try to justify it however you will, but at the end of the day, that $250 watch is an Omega watch in the eyes of those who buy it. It might not be a "real" Omega, but it'll still be an Omega watch. And that's too bad for those with "real" Omegas. Because nobody wants to be lumped in with a bunch of hypebeasts and dead-beats who spend an afternoon lining up for a toy watch.

That's the point; VW puts out the "VW Golf", not the "Bugatti Golf", for a reason.

by the simple fact that nobody will think more of Omega with this collaboration, some people will think less of it. Net-of-net, it'll be a decrease in general opinions, which leads to a general decline in market value.

In the way that it's an asset that you derive value from.
