No, you are not crazy, I have one right now in my hands.
It's not a TS-2068, it's a TC-2068
At the lower left corner it says PAL personal color computer
At the upper left corner it says Timex Computer 2068.
All other external appearance is identical to the TS-2068.
Internally it has different board and ULA. It's a llitle more compatible with zx spectrum (floating bus, etc)
Here in Argentina it's like a rarity.
I hope that you don't have thrown it, in the US will be more difficult to find one than here.

I may be going crazy. I remember having a TS2068 made in Portugal, but I'm being told they were all made in Korea?

All TSs that I ever seen are made in Korea.
May be a last batch after that Timex Portugal joined the game.
Do you have a black or silver version of TC2068? I have a silver one.

Well, I have the TC2048, TC2068 and the TS2068, but I remember seeing "Made in Portugal" on a TS2068...

I have the black one in my parents storage in Portugal. I may have a silver one too, somewhere...
