As Swiss as "WXO" is the code for the Swiss "Waltham Watch Co.".
Other "giveaways are:
1. The "running W" logo.
2. Incabloc on the dial.
3. Antimagnetic on the dial.
Both 1 and 2 are too small to see in the image, but they are there. As well as a very tiny "Swiss" under the seconds bit.
Consider this a very inexpensive bit of education. This imposter of a watch will probably go for $125 or more, and is "worth" about $25.
To give it its due; mine is at least a pretty good timekeeper.
Cheers,
Wally
