It is now about matters of integrity and service to their customers.<br><br><a href="http://miamirealestateinc.org" rel="nofollow">http://miamirealestateinc.org</a><br>  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Angel Gleed]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 10th 2007 2:14PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Tightening Restrictions On Swiss Made Watches]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/07/10/tightening-restrictions-on-swiss-made-watches/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/07/10/tightening-restrictions-on-swiss-made-watches/</guid><description><![CDATA[Angel: the issue here is not buying a copy cat bag, a more appropriate analogy would be buying a BMW with the fuel-pump gasket manufactured by someone else. How many gaskets per car are allowable to be outsourced, is the discussion. Watch components like mainsprings, balances, gears and pinions, cases and crystals, can be manufactured in other parts of the world for much less money to the (arguably) same degree of quality. I can see both sides of the issue, smaller bona-fide Swiss companies have to keep their cost down to compete, while bigger ones can absorb it. In any case, ultimately, it will be hard to regulate just how much of a watch is 80%, so I think it's largely a farce.<br><br>Zola: reading your article, it seems that you really have no in-depth knowledge or perspective of horology which makes you an inadequate critic. Apart from a few overlichéd stereotypes, you've failed to provide any relevant information whatsoever.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dmitry Paradis]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 10th 2007 6:28PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
