    Long Island Watch Co.'s Islander Watch brand also needs mention! I own two and can attest to their quality and value.

    Bertucci probably warrants a mention here for their exceptionally durable and reasonably priced field watches.

    Well, as good as their products are they are most more appropriately considered as an homage-maker and not an actual brand that creates their own designs.

    How did Monta not make the list? Especially considering that both Ball and Hamilton are on the list. Ball and Hamilton are Swiss owned, Swiss operated, and manufactured in Switzerland.

    It didn't make our top 20 but when we update the article on our site we'll surely include them as well. And maybe make a new video with other recommendations.

    America has/had great watches, I own a Bulova Accutron Spaceview,great watch still working fine after nearly 60 years, a Tornek-Rayville mil-ship vintage, an electronic red LED Wittnauer, a few electric Timex and a Pulsar P4, all are amazing watches. MKII are also very nice and relatively "cheap" for the quality, Brew are also very nice watches,

    Thanks for this vid. And especially for introducing me Resco Instruments, Kobold and RGM Watch Co., 3 brands that I did not know. Perhaps you could have replaced Hamilton, which is now more Swiss than American, with Vaer on your list.

    Thanks for your suggestion. For us Hamilton still is, at its heart, an American brand, even though they moved to Switzerland in 1969.

    This series of articles & videos about watch brands is not only about affordable watchmakers. We tried to include both affordable and more high-end options to get an idea about which are the most important watchmakers from each country. We have lots of different videos on our channel with affordable watch recommendations.

    North Americans and British people are of the same ethinicity. They just speak with different accents and/or dialects, and sometimes language.
