or a Swiss horse hiding it's Chinese origins...deception nonetheless..
...the Asian watch market is the largest and even they want Swiss quality...although the CodeX cases are made in HK they are said to be finished in Switzerland...so does this make it right to charge high end Swiss prices as CodeX and many other Swiss watch companies are doing?
When brands without conscience see that somes are making a lot of money by doing it without beeing exposed: They are offcourse tempted to do the same...
Fabrication cost: 200$ / Selling price: 2000$ is tempting...For people who have no mirrors at home.
The problem is that greed will destroy the Swiss watch industry and it's credibility if nobody ever get exposed selling lies.
It's not the Chinese's fault: It's the fault of those brands. If the Chinese wasn't doing it, it would be someone else.
The "swiss made" appellation should be more restricted.
