Doesn't "Swiss Made" indicate country of origin for the RH Microsplit? I was under the impression that that designation can only be used if the watch was actually assembled in Switzerland.
Microsplits with LCD displays were introduced in the late '70s and widely marketed to the auto racing community. I have a Model 310 from about '79, used to time my laps in qualifying and during the races (FF).
