I hope more watch brands utilize the best possible supplier to help them make the best watch. Inside or outside of Switzerland.

Iphone , Tesla , other 90% of consumer products are accepted made in china or asia but you really think an official Rolex / Omega or any 'Swiss' origin brand even though same quality but Made in China/or anywhere other than Swiss will ever be accepted? I doubt hence we have this thread and majority of mechanical watch buyers would want their watch to be made in Switzerland as thats deep rooted connection with this hobby.
I would want the brand origin and manufacture from same country it could be Switzerland, China or Japan.
