I'm not surprised really.  The Swiss are not in tune at all with the US Market.  They think the US is NYC, LA, and Miami from coast to coast.  Unless they take some time and understand that middle America is not the coasts, theyll never have the US success they are looking for.

It doesn;t help that everybody wants to be Rolex!!  I mean come on, it wasn't long ago that $3000 would get you really nice Omega, and $1500 would get you a really nice TAG...try looking for that today.  Pretty tough to crack Cleveland, St. Louis, Topeka, etc at those prices.  I love my Swiss watches, but let's face it, there are not enough WIS' for them to do well in eternum.

I say, bring on the Japanese and Chinese autos and quartz movt.  I think you;'ll start seeibng more and more of these.  Look at that new Bulova line up!!  Nice stuff.
