Swiss Automatic Movement
What is an affordable watch brand or model that uses a swiss automatic movement?
I am looking for an affordable model with a swiss automatic movement. I define affordable (in regard to my current income) as below $300. I currently purchased an Invicta 8296 with the Japanese movement which has sparked my interest in mechanical watches and perhaps watch collecting (which is probably not the most affordable hobby 
.
The Bernhardt Binnacle uses an ETA automatic movement and is a well built watch. The watch does not have Swiss made on the dial though, but the movement is Swiss.

I don’t think you will find many watches for $300 with a Swiss movement; $700 would definitely open up your options. If you are willing to spend slightly more, the following brands have Swiss movements/are Swiss; Ocean 7, Stowa, Limes and Zeno.
Japanese automatics are very good, you should not overlook them. A Seiko automatic diver is a must in any automatic collection as they are probably the best value watches you can get for the money and have a “bullet proof” movement.
