Have you had a look at Oris? Better to support the independent manufacturers as Swatch Group is trying to destroy independent watch making in Switzerland.

Try Steinhart, well it's made in Germany but the movements they use are Swiss made.

Steinhart is a German company, but their watches are completely made in the Jura in Switzerland, gurka.

Do agree, try Oris,nice pieces there !

Oris, H2O, Steinhart all good suggestions. I have an Oris Aquis which is my favorite in the collection. Really a great watch for the money.

I agree with Steinhart, have been very happy with their watches. Also Christopher Ward is worth a look as well. Haven't tried Oris but I have heard good things.

Have a look at Helson and Magrette. The Magrette in particular looks a very well made watch with a nice design.

Steinhart have a good range but a lot of homage watches, they always get very good reviews though.
Have you considered a used Longines or Oris, maybe even an Omega SMP300 if you can stretch your budget.
