Yeah, I'm not a fancy watch guy, so I was intrigued at the quality of the knockoff in that video.

Varmint's post captured my imagination; it turns out only 50% of the parts in a "Swiss Made" watch are required to be made in Switzerland. If the actual watches didn't come from the same factory, I'm betting the Seiko drawings turned up in more than one watch factory.
