IWC maybe the largest swiss watchmaker based out of German speaking part of Swiss, but U have Oris there too.
http://www.timezone.com/2002/09/25/is-iwc-the-only-brand-made-in-the-german-part-of-switzerland-698/

IWC volume ~90K watches a yr, Oris ~60K

if supply to German in WWII makes it a little more German then Omega is alittle more American since it supply to NASA.

Longines in french part, founded by french speaking swiss ppl on the forum call them faking french with a fake french name LOL..

Oris have some nice watches but I wouldn't consider Oris a major Swiss watchmaker

Omega supplying NASA, I would say more due to great advertising opportunity or simply no good enough American watchmaker then haha

So anyone making less than 90k watches a yr is not a major product.
Ok

Hi fellow hwz-ers, would like to check where is a recommended place to get seiko blumo ? Have been browsing through this thread and getting reviews abt bigtime, skywatches, higuchi, seiya. Just want to know where would be the best to get one? Thanks!

Edit: just to check for a seiko blumo, the pricing that im looking at shd be the 6xx range right?
