Though they have a number of great watches in their line up, they are outsourced to the highest bidder and have the generic swiss movements put into them (nothing wrong with this). Unfortunately you will find similarities in design with such brands as Tissot, where a rebranded "Tag" version of the same watch is easily triple the price.

Well they now have their own "in-house" movement with Cal. 1887, which is reasonably priced for an in-house movement (although some people saying buying Seiko's movement developing their movement with Seiko's designs doesn't count as an in-house movement). Also, some of their higher end pieces have the El Primero movement. Also, they've been making some new innovative stuff like the Mikograph, able to time to 1/100th of a second. Having said that I agree, there are better "bang for buck" watches (e.g. Oris, Frederique Constant, etc)
