That just goes to show one how effective various makers are at establishing a brand image. Of the two makers, only Tag actually produces haute horology watches, which from a demonstrated capability perspective, definitely puts Tag above Breitling.

On a watch by watch comparative basis, I think the two companies are more or less the same in terms of the quality and technical merit of their wares, except at the haute horology level, because Breitling has no products at that level. Now that doesn't surprise me as the two companies have a history of sharing movements and innovations. (http://www.watch-wiki.net/index.php?title=Chronomatic)

All the best.
