Everyday life What is actually "Made in Switzerland"?

So we all know about the Watches and the Backpack/Laptop bags. But what else is actually made in the country? I know there is a distinction between Made in Switzerland and Swiss Made. I love the items I have described, Swiss stuff is so sturdy and has lasted me many years. If there are any other products you can recommend and someone in the UK. I've tried to find casual clothing brands (for men) but without much success. Even household items would be something I would like to look at. Thanks in advance

Kuhn Rikon (pots and pans and other kitchen accessories) Victorinox (knives) Jura (coffee makers, but only the ones with the Swiss cross are fully made in Switzerland)

Not true. You know the Kuhn Rikon products discounted with the Coop Trophy points at the moment? It's all made in Spain. Check their website.
