Hello everyone ,this is Carol from China, i am working in watch supply chain for over 11 years, lately i just see the watch shows in Geneva and visited our clients in Switzerland, so here are the guide for Swiss made watches, ensure you can make reliable and quality Swiss made watches.

1. What Is a Swiss Made Watch?

The term “Swiss Made” is protected by Swiss law. A watch cannot simply use Swiss components and claim to be Swiss Made. It must follow official regulations defined by the Swiss watch industry.

According to current Swiss regulations, a watch is considered Swiss Made when:

• The movement is Swiss
• The movement is assembled in Switzerland
• The final inspection of the watch is carried out in Switzerland
• At least 60% of the manufacturing value of the watch is generated in Switzerland

The 60% calculation includes:

• Swiss movement value
• Swiss assembly labor
• Swiss engineering and technical development
• Swiss quality control and testing

This means a watch may still use some non-Swiss components, such as:

• Cases
• Dials
• Straps
• Buckles
• Packaging

As long as the overall Swiss value exceeds 60%, the watch can legally qualify as Swiss Made.

For many modern brands, this creates a practical balance between Swiss quality and competitive manufacturing cost.
