Weird, I thought this was already pretty well settled? Mainly because I see few watches actually put "Swiss Made" on the bracelet itself. None of the recent Omegas I've owned have said that.
IIRC Tudor's bracelets used to say "Swiss Made" but no longer do so, so I assumed they also had moved production to another nation (prob in Asia).
Rolex's bracelets obviously all still say "Swiss Made".
And FWIW my Vacheron Overseas's bracelet is Made in France, but they put Swiss Made on the rubber and leather straps.
So I was already working under the assumption if the bracelet/strap doesn't specify a country of origin, it was probably made in China or another Asian nation.
