Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 80637415 Japan 07/21/2021 06:42 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | "The biggest critics of the Swiss Made standard are those Swiss watch brands whose “Made in Switzerland” watches vastly exceed the minimum requirements of Swiss Made. Their watches tend to be much more expensive because Swiss labor and Swiss manufacturing are much more expensive. Brands whose products are much more “Swiss” lament that the Swiss Made label can be applied despite heavy reliance on outsourcing and foreign labor. Advertising Message The same mechanism many “Swiss Made” watchmakers have been using to keep production and manufacturing costs low might now cost them dearly — in some instances causing manufacturing to stop entirely. It also isn’t clear who might save them. Beyond the more serious effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, it exposed a deep and prolific reliance on China, both for manufacturing and for consumption. This reliance now means many watchmakers in Switzerland aren’t just having a problem selling their watches but also a problem producing them in the first place. " |

Desert Dude User ID: 27161437 United States 07/21/2021 07:36 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Phones were banned on a job I was working at called Raytheon. Some nut sack was caught taking pictures inside the building with his phone. It was comical listening to all the people inside the four-story building asking each other what time it was all day long. I was forced to buy a watch because of this. Yeah I did it, and it can't be undone. |
