Switzerland has a well-earned reputation for its timepieces. Considered state of the art in the field of clocks and watches, they are well regarded for their functionality and uncompromising quality. And as such their work has been copied by others over the years. Today you can find Swiss Army Watches in every price range and a wide variety of storefronts, from the street corner vendor to the high end stores in New York, London, and Paris.
Some of the myriad features available on this famous watch include a sweeping second hand, scratch resistant crystals, water resistance, winding stems or battery operated, large, easy to read dials, chronographs, day and date functionality. Your watch can tell military time in addition to ordinal time. The watches come in various styles, rugged for the outdoors life and shining simplicity for the professional.
Today a discerning consumer can find Swiss Army Watches in a variety of styles and materials. From the conventional to the extreme, for women or men, for land and for underwater, for play and for work, the range of choices is vast. The prices too range widely, from inexpensive 'knock-offs' to high dollar genuine articles.
With all of these watches available how does one know if the watch they are buying is a copy or an original? Originals will be stamped on the back of the watch dial with a registration number and manufacturer's I. D. Originals are only sold in authorized stores and as such will have the documentation to support that claim. When you purchase the watch, you should also receive the manufacturer's authorized paperwork as to the origins of the watch.
As a discerning consumer, if you are looking for the genuine article, you will want to check the back of the mens wrist watch. All genuine models will have an identification number engraved on the back of the face as well as the name of the maker. This ensures that the watch is the 'real deal'. The genuine models come with a higher price tag than the copies, which are more widely available. It is not uncommon for the name to be abused by counterfeiters as well. You won't find an authentic piece on the street corner.
As with the variety of styles, the prices range along a spectrum. The big box and discount stores will sell their models for less than $100 whereas the authorized dealers selling the authentic models will range from $1,000 for a very basic style to several thousand dollars for the more sophisticated styles. It is always best to shop around to find the right dealer who can serve your particular needs.
