Titan Sonata – cheap watch, Titan = lower end watches
Tanishq – Titan = some sort of jewellery company
Titan – Titan = good for gifting
Titan – Titan = my daddy’s watch – functional and reliable but ....

22. Titan Octane
Give Octane an independent brand identity.
Product must carry the Octane logo, not just Titan
Not something new for Titan.
Titan has done it before both at low end with Fastrack and at the
high end with Xylys.

Power of choice – choosing your watch yourself vs. receiving a random watch as a gift. Brand Personification – important to break the clutter – opposed to speed which is external, this become internal – or a part of the owner. Looking to drive an emotional connect. Drop Titan from Titan Octane to get rid of brand dissonance. Fasttrack doesn’t carry Titan brand ... Neither does Xylus .... Octane carries no Octane brand?!?

Social currency is information shared which encourages further social encounters. It can be a factor in establishing fans of sports or television programmes. [1] As well as talking about sports, attendance at sports events themselves is a form of social currency. Young men in particular feel the need to learn about sporting current events in order to facilitate social interaction. However these types of fan can easily move to a new sport, team, or programme in the future if the new one offers more social currency. [2] Women may use jewellery and clothes as part of their social currency, providing a way into communication. [3] What is completely new or unique has no, or unknown, social currency, hence all news programmes or other broadcasts are to an extent similar and the content of the news is not entirely new, but depends on subjects already deemed worth discussion. The media has to try to strike the balance between routine (low risk) and novelty, to try and create programmes people will use as social currency. [4] Sharing a meal can be social currency. [5] In morality, choosing an action based on its social currency alone, it's social acceptability; reliance on duty, is now less fashionable and the protagonist is praised if he considered the action's intrinsic worth.
