There are at least 2 sites advertising their reps to be Swiss made. Their websites are very misleading, and very well done.

Just to point out, you are correct a helluva lot of sites are inaccurate, but that is a bit of a blanket statement, there is at least one TD on here who lists some watches as Swiss (but NOT Swiss MADE) and they do indeed have the original Swiss Movement.

I agree one has to do ones due diligince, but my point is not everyone is a scammer ;) That is why we buy from the TD's here (y)

I also buy from others, BUT ONLY if the TD's can't get a particular brand or model.

Nope. I dont think so. Years ago we discovered that we were getting clone ETA movements that were advertised as Swiss ETA. Theres a whole thread about it somewhere. Bottom line, none of the advertised swiss eta movements were swiss (and this included trusted dealers here). Because the rep forums and following was so much smaller back then it was easy for them to get one over on us. I for one have ALWAYS said that we were never getting anything that was actually swiss.
I find it very hard to believe that any rep manufacture would use actual swiss movements.
