About the CHEAP-LUXURY-TRAVEL

Switzerland is a landlocked country in Central Europe. It has borders with France to the west, Italy to the south.Switzerland\'s independence and neutrality have long been honored by the major European powers and Switzerland was not involved in either of the two World Wars. The political and economic integration of Europe over the past half century, as well as Switzerland\'s role in many UN and international organizations has strengthened Switzerland\'s ties with its neighbors. However, the country did not officially become a UN member until 2002.

Watches - Switzerland is the watch-making capital of the world, and \"Swiss Made\" on a watch face has long been a mark of quality. While the French-speaking regions of Switzerland are usually associated with Swiss watchmakers (like Rolex, Omega, and Patek Philippe), some fine watches are made in the Swiss-German-speaking region, such as IWC in Schaffhausen. (Fine watches are also made in the nearby German Glashütte region.) Every large town will have quite a few horologers and jewelers with a vast selection of fancy watches displayed their windows, with huge price tags to go with them. For fun, try to spot the most expensive of these mechanical creations and the ones with the most \"bling\".
