I have noticed that the Victorinox models cost quite a bit more than the Wenger models.
Is the quality that different between the two? |

Quoted: I have noticed that the Victorinox models cost quite a bit more than the Wenger models. Is the quality that different between the two? Go hold on to one of each and you'll know the answer. That said, a Wenger isn't so cheap as to not be worth it. Really depends on what you want to spend your $$ on. |

The last two Wengers I have bought both had " Made in China " stickers on the movements ( guts ) so not really Swiss made....more like assembled in Switzerland  . Good watches though never had any problems.

Seriously, take a look at the Vostok Komandirskie, or better yet, a Vostok Amphibian. Superbly tough and mechanical watches for $40-$80 shipped from the motherland. Vostok
