Watches Gaining Popularity

The watchmaking industry is growing rapidly, with more players providing attractive watches with stainless-steel cases, scratch-resistant sapphire glass, quick-change strap systems, and water resistance properties. The preference for luxury watches among consumers across the region has witnessed an upgrowth owing to the growing popularity of Swiss watches. Moreover, the sales of stylish watches are expected to be supported by the number of international tourists visiting the United States. With the changing perceptions of people in the region, where owning a traditional watch is considered redundant, the demand for digital watches with additional functionalities is growing rapidly.

Furthermore, the introduction of mid-range watches, which perform better and offer features similar to that of luxury watches, led to more consumers purchasing them, as they are available at a reasonable price. Therefore, many companies are entering the market to offer budget-friendly watches that can support the styles and aesthetic needs of individuals. For example, in 2020, Apple launched a smartwatch, Apple Watch SE priced at USD 279 with GPS, to fit into the budget friendly category. Other brands like Fossil are spending heavily on in-store promotional activities and working on innovative designs and plans to launch watches at affordable prices.
