Yeah I would never give a cent to some Swiss watch company. The only luxury watches I see actually worth their price tag are those made by independent watchmakers like Masahiro Kikuno.
I watched a documentary[0] back in the day that goes over his process of designing and making a watch and it's nothing short of amazing. There's something about swiss watches being so commoditized (even the most expensive ones) that makes their clientele seem outright stupid in my opinion.
