    It's a cultural stereotype. The Swiss are or maybe were( I'm not too sure if they still make them) world renown for making high quality timepieces.

    But to say they are obsessed would be to say all Dutch people wear clogs, smoke dope and live in windmills.

    The same thing that it says about Americans who are obsessed with SUVs, cell phones and American Idol.
