Interesting discussion perhaps.

Breitling and Cartier have "bought into" the manufacturing plant that Tudor built, just so they can be said to be partners in the manufacture. They are not receiving stripped ebauches, the plant makes specific end-movements for the brand.

This is just as in-house as Omega movements that are, technically/arguably, made by the ETA processes of the mother-Swatch group, or many others in that family.
