 “We have an online store selling watch straps to consumers in the US. This is my third visit to the Hong Kong Watch & Clock Fair where I can find a wide selection of watch strap suppliers. This is the first time that I have used the HKTDC’s business matching service and it is very productive. I have identified six good suppliers from the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong. I plan to buy US$40,000-50,000 from each supplier. Our strap business is growing because more people buy smart watches and more straps are needed to match their outfits.”
Matthew Southern, Owner, Southern Straps, the US |
 “Established in 1984, our company has 10 watch stores in Singapore, carrying 50 international watch brands. This is my third time visiting the Hong Kong Watch & Clock Fair. To meet the needs of our customers, I am particularly looking for fanciful leather straps and have found various potential strap suppliers. I am also interested in the classic watches offered by a Hong Kong supplier and I have already placed an order for 100 pieces to test the market. Since consumers in Singapore are more health-conscious, I am also looking for smart watches that can track steps, distance and calories burned. I’ll visit the Wearable Tech zone at Salon de TE too.”
Darren Ng, Director, All Watches, Pte Ltd, Singapore |

“I am an independent watchmaker in Switzerland with 62 years of experience in the watchmaking industry. I launched my own brand in 1977, which features elegant yet complicated designs. I have my first exhibition in Salon de TE this year because it provides a good platform for me to connect with retailers and consumers. I am keen to develop the Chinese mainland’s watch market because it is the best market for Swiss watches. In the past, mainland consumers only looked for big brands, but now an increasing number of mainland consumers are interested in Swiss independent watchmakers. So far, I have talked to several serious buyers from the Chinese mainland. It’s a good experience for me to be here. Salon de TE is a well-organised show. I hope to come back next year.”
Vincent Calabrese, Owner, Hora Nova Sárl, Switzerland (booth: 3E-S06) |
 “Launched in 2017, Torii watches feature minimalist designs created by Japanese designers. Our watches are equipped with Japanese movements, sapphire coated glass, stainless steel cases and bracelets. Eastern Europe is our main market. This is our first-time participation in Salon de TE because it is a world-class event for the watch and clock industry which attracts buyers from all over the world. At the fair, we are looking for new distributors and retailers. We have already collected good feedback from buyers from the Chinese mainland and Iran. They like our minimalist designs and the quality of our watches and find our prices very competitive.”
Andrzej Mokrzycki, Managing Director, Torii Europe Ltd, Poland (booth: 3D-B26) |
