Τα SWISS MADE συναρμολογούνται μόνο στην Ελβετία. Πουθενά αλλού.
Για να είναι κάποιο ρολόι SWISS MADE πρέπει να πληροί τις εξής προϋποθέσεις:
- Ο μηχανισμός να έχει συναρμολογηθεί στην Ελβετία.
- Το ρολόι να έχει συναρμολογηθεί (μηχανισμός, καντράν, δείκτες, κάσα κλπ μέρη) στην Ελβετία.
- Ρύθμιση και τελική δοκιμή του μηχανισμού να έχει γίνει στην Ελβετία.
- Ο μηχανισμός έχει τουλάχιστον το 50% της αξίας των μερών του κατασκευασμένων στην Ελβετία, εξαιρουμένης της αξίας συναρμολόγησής του.
A Swiss watch
Only when it is Swiss, may a watch carry the indications "Swiss made" or "Swiss", or any other expression containing the word "Swiss" or its translation, on the outside. According to Section 1a OSM, a watch is considered to be Swiss if:
its movement is Swiss;
its movement is cased up in Switzerland;
and the manufacturer carries out the final inspection in Switzerland.
A Swiss watch movement
As we have seen, to be Swiss, a watch must use a Swiss movement. According to Section 2 OSM, a movement is considered to be Swiss if:
it has been assembled in Switzerland;
it has been inspected by the manufacturer in Switzerland; and
the components of Swiss manufacture account for at least 50 percent of the total value, without taking into account the cost of assembly.
If the movement fulfills these conditions, but the watch is not assembled in Switzerland, the "Swiss" indication may be affixed to one of the components of the movement. On the outside of the watch, may then only appear the "mouvement suisse" or "Swiss movement" indication. Section 3 § 3 OSM requires that the word "movement" appear in full, and be written in the same type-face, of identical size and colour, as the word "Swiss".
