They do make good quartz movements though. A watch co has to have it's own movement for me. The 'holy Quintet' share the top guys mind, or the majority do.

and they do make good mechanical movements as well. Being part of the Swatch group(worlds largest producer of timepieces) they along with sister company Omega produce more hairspring / escapement assemblies than anyone else. While I know Rolex utilizes their own in house escapement (with a proprietary hairspring that supposedly is almost completely anti-magnetic) I'm not sure about the likes of Lange and Patek .....??
