Jason here. I’ll be helping out the Wrist Watch Review with some posts in the upcoming weeks/months. I’m not nearly as big a watch whore as John, since, like they say about real whores, you gotta get’m while they’re young.

So I’ll start my now-sure-to-be-short tenure here with the topic of “Swiss Made” watches. What does it take to get a label of “Swiss” or have “Swiss Movement”? Apparently, not a whole lot.

What is interesting and an eye opener is how the requirement for the watch movement and case needs only to reach 50% of total value and the watch is still deemed Swiss.
