Watch Manufacturers in China: A Complete Guide

Posted on 153 Comments

Suggestion: Watch the 20 minutes video tutorial before reading this article

Millions of watches are assembled in China every year, primarily in Shenzhen, Guangdong province. With hundreds of watch manufacturers to choose from, it can be somewhat tricky to find one capable to manufacture your watch design.

In this article, we share our experience of China’s wristwatch industry and explain the factors that matter when selecting a manufacturer. We also explain what importers must know about design customization, and how this has a direct impact on pricing and minimum order quantity requirements.

This is covered:

  • The role of the Watch manufacturer
  • Materials and Components
  • Design Customization
  • Heavy metals, phthalates, and other restricted substances
  • Product Packaging
  • MOQ Requirement
  • How do I know if the supplier can make my watch design?
  • List of Watch Manufacturers in Shenzhen

The role of the Watch manufacturer

The truth is that a ‘Watch manufacturer’ doesn’t really manufacture the watches. They assemble the watches and procure all individual components. The Watchcase, crown, hands, clock face, and even the indexing are all produced by specialized subcontractors.

This also applies to movements, which are often procured directly from Miyota, Seiko or Ronda.

The Watch supplier is essentially managing these subcontractors, and assemble the final products. In general, all Watch suppliers have access to the same subcontractors. As they don’t invest much in R&D, this means that all suppliers in the industry have access to the same materials and components.

Does that mean that all suppliers are equal? Definitely not. Watch manufacturers differ on the following factors:

a. Product compliance: Most suppliers are not aware of EU and US product regulations,  such as REACH and RoHS. Hence, they may supply a product with excessive amounts of lead and other restricted substances.

b. Quality management: Managing a large number of subcontractors is not an easy task. At a minimum, the supplier must have established procedures for checking incoming materials and components – and checkpoints on the assembly line.

c. Management: Some people are just better at taking care of their customers and running businesses than others. This is also how it works in China’s watch industry.

So, what about pricing? The price difference between two different suppliers is normally small, assuming you get quoted based on the same product specification. As mentioned, the suppliers are buying materials and components from the same network of subcontractors.

Materials and Components

Chinese Watch manufacturers are accustomed to producing goods in part, or entirely, according to the buyer’s product specifications.

A product specification is any piece of information that defines the design, functions, and durability of a product. Below follows a short list of specifications applicable to watches:

  • Case Material: e.g. Zinc alloy or 316L Stainless Steel
  • Case Plating: e.g. IP Rose Gold
  • Movement: e.g. Miyota IL22
  • Water retardance: e.g., 3 ATM or 5 ATM
  • Glass: e.g. Mineral glass or Sapphire glass
  • Strap: e.g. Italian calf leather

That’s not the full list of specifications you need to cover, but I think the point has been made. As Chinese manufacturers are accustomed to this “make to order” approach, they will not manage the product development for you.

They are manufacturers, and offering a free of charge design service would force them to increase their prices, which in turn would result in most buyers taking their (free) designs to the next manufacturer.

Note: Watch suppliers normally create a 2D rendering of the Watch, effectively illustrating the final product from all angles. However, the rendering is based entirely on specifications provided by the customer. Do not expect any creative input from the manufacturer, as this is outside their business scope.

Design Customization

While you shouldn’t expect free product development services from any manufacturer, most are able to realize your customized watch designs.

The major component is the watch case, which requires an injection mold. This can easily be made by the supplier or subcontracted, assuming you have a CAD design, detailed images, drawings, or reference sample.

However, the case design must be based on the actual components (e.g. movement and dial) that you intend to use. There are also limits to how far you should go when designing a wristwatch.

You can custom design any component, including the hands, crown, and indexing. That said, all OEM (custom designed) components require tooling, which costs more time and extends the product development time. it can also affect the MOQ requirement.

If you are about to launch your first product, you may want to consider using ODM (factory standard) parts to the extent possible.

On the contrary, the watch case, clock face, and straps are easier to customize. For most small businesses, it makes sense to strike a balance somewhere in between and mix between custom designed components, and “factory standard” components.

Most Watch manufacturers keep high volume components in stock. These components are assembled on most models, which allows the supplier to offer a fairly modest MOQ requirement per watch design.

The best way to simplify the product development process is by first asking the supplier to send PDF or Excel files listing the standardized components they can offer, and then adjust your watch case design accordingly.

Importers in the United States and the European Union should also note that specific labeling requirements apply to wristwatches. Never make the assumption that your manufacturer ‘should know’ how your watch should be labeled, according to regulations in your country.

The labeling information (e.g. Country of Origin markings) shall be part of the artwork files, and not left out as a gap for the supplier to fill.

Heavy metals, phthalates, and other restricted substances

Compliance with labeling requirements is relatively easy, not barely related to the manufacturers’ expertise. As long as you get the artwork files right, things rarely go wrong in this aspect.

I wish I could say the same thing about compliance with substance regulations (e.g. REACH in the European Union, and California Proposition 65 in the United States).

Importers in the US and EU are required to ensure compliance with all applicable product regulations. This should, at least in theory, be quite simple.

But the reality is very different

I know from personal experience that most Watch manufacturers are unable to provide test reports or other compliance documents, showing that their products don’t contain excessive amounts of restricted chemicals (e.g. lead, cadmium and phthalates).

Indeed, it is possible to submit a sample to a testing company such as Asiainspection or SGS, but this is only of use if you can ensure that the very same components are used on the sample, as on the final product. Replace a material, color, or coating, and the watch may be rendered as non-compliant.

This issue stems from a lack of control of incoming materials and components, from the manufacturers’ subcontractors. As a watch is made of a large number of components, these are not all made under the same roof, but purchased from specialized manufacturers.

Combine this with the general lack of transparency and knowledge of substance regulations in other countries, and you got a potent – and dangerous – mix.

Compliance is essential when selecting a supplier

It’s therefore critical that you select a Watch manufacturer that is able to prove extensive, previous, compliance with European and American substance regulations.

That is, however, only the first step, as previous compliance is a mere indication of capability, rather than a guarantee for future compliance.

Buyers are therefore wise to submit batch samples for compliance testing on a regular basis, to minimize the risk of non-compliant, and thereby illegal, products from entering the market. Importing non-compliant products is illegal, and may result in a forced recall and heavy fines.

Also note that it’s always the importer that is held responsible, not the foreign, in this case, Chinese, manufacturer.

Product Packaging

Watch manufacturers subcontract the making of their product packaging to specialized packaging producers. The majority can also offer a number of standardized models, offered in fairly low quantities.

Branding is also possible but may result in a slight MOQ and price increase.

Making a custom designed packaging is another alternative, but requires certain packaging design expertise, as it must be based on the design and dimensions of the watch.

Relying on the supplier to apply the final adjustment is rarely a wise choice, and may result in a large number of useless packages.

MOQ Requirement

The Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) Requirement is the minimum number of products a supplier is willing to sell a certain item. Watch manufacturers generally set an MOQ of around 300 to 500 pieces per model.

The definition of a model is, to most manufacturers, the watch case. The MOQ requirement is therefore multiplied based on the number of different watch cases you intend to purchase.

Small buyers are therefore advised to find other ways to differentiate the product, rather than buying several watch case designs, which quickly adds up to an MOQ of thousands of units.

As touched upon previously in this guide, the MOQ requirement is greatly affected by the design customization. Certain components and design aspects have a higher impact on the MOQ requirement than others.

Below follows an overview of various components, and to what degree they are likely to affect the MOQ set by the manufacturer:

  • Leather / Nylon straps: Low
  • Case Material: Low
  • Case Plating: Low
  • Custom Logo: Medium
  • Custom Dial: Medium
  • Custom Case: Medium
  • Custom Glass: High
  • Custom Hands (Minute / Hour): High
  • Custom Indexing (Clock face): High

The MOQ per case plating is often as low as 100 pcs. Assuming that the total order MOQ is 500 pcs, you can then create 5 different cases in the same order.

Watch MOQ Examples

  • Order MOQ: 500 pcs
  • Watch Case MOQ: 500 pcs
  • Watch Case Plating MOQ: 100 – 200 pcs
  • Dial MOQ: 100 – 200 pcs
  • ODM Strap MOQ: 100 – 200 pcs
  • OEM Strap MOQ: 500 pcs

How do I know if the supplier can make my watch design?

All watch manufacturers use the same supplier base for procuring materials and components. As mentioned, the watch manufacturer is more of an administrator, than a proper factory.

The watch manufacturer assembles the watch parts, while another workshop makes the clock face, while another one makes the hands.

As such, there is no proper difference between suppliers when it comes to product quality. All watch manufacturers make products based on the spec sheet.

What you get is what you specify.

In theory, you’d get the exact same product from two different suppliers, as long as the spec sheet is the same.

There are no suppliers that can provide fancy movements, or space station grade alloys. They simply don’t exist.

In reality, there are some differences though:

1. Some suppliers focus on stainless steel watches, while others focus more on wood or zinc alloy watches. Or even plastic watches. Make sure you go to a watch factory that is specialized in your type of watch.

2. All suppliers in this industry are relatively sloppy. However, there’s a big difference between suppliers that can keep a 1% defect rate and those that run with a 30% (or higher) defect rate.

    1. Ralph Freshour at 11:33 pm

      Hi Fredrik,

      Can you point me in the right direction for finding companies who specialize in making watch hands? I need 4 hands for a GMT watch I am designing. I need 50 to 100 sets.

      Thank you…

      1. Fredrik Gronkvist at 1:13 pm

        Hello Ralph,

        We never work directly with hands manufacturers as they are made in specialized factories that often don’t even have export licenses.

    2. Michelange Katende at 5:41 pm

      Hi Fredrik
      It’s such a pleaseure to find someone giving interest in helping people finding the right manufacturers in China.
      I’ve starting designing my watch that I want to make 100 or 200 units in China. I see in the article that the minimum is 500, is it possible to convince them otherwise?
      Do you have examples of high quality watches that they made on pictures?
      Any idea of prices per unit of a watch of a Daniel Willington and Fossil level?
      Kind regards

      1. Fredrik Gronkvist at 6:00 pm

        Hello Michelange,

        1. Some suppliers may accept from 300 pcs, but not lower than that. That said, most accept 100-200 pcs per color (e.g. case plating or dial color)

        2. I would estimate that DW can manufacture their watches for around 12-13 USD per piece. That’s also because they produce very large volumes. A 500 pcs production run would probably cost 18-20 USD. No idea about Fossil though.

      2. vlad at 6:21 pm

        Our company would accept small orders. Customization and design development are available. https://www.montrichardwatch.com/

          Hi Fredrik I just wanted to ask if I can give you example of what type of watch I want then you make it for me?

          1. Fredrik Gronkvist at 11:53 am

            Hi Edwin,

            You will need to create a complete product specification, including design drawings and a bill of materials.

      Hi Fredrik,
      This guide is very helpful to the watches starter, especially for those have no experience in importing watches from China.

      Could you please share more information about what certificates is required for USA, UK for importing watches?

      1. Fredrik Gronkvist at 7:03 pm

        Hi William,

        I suggest you look up our articles about CE marking and CA Prop 65 here on the website. Both are applicable to watches in the US and UK, respectively.

      2. Vlad at 6:24 pm

        The certificates depend on the type of watches. for stainless steel you won’t check phthalates, but for plastic watches we do.
        we’re manufacturers in China, but the owner is French. Feel free to contact us https://www.montrichardwatch.com/

      I am looking for a watch with Video / Audio and GPS. . I need for this watch to be align to my Desktop computer, Laptop, Ipad or smartphone. It is because I want to be able to know the exact location where the person is at, and also, be able to view them and have a two-way communication with them.
      I have the Patent to this watch in America. May I hear from you soon.

      1. Ivan Malloci at 7:05 am

        Hello Salaam,

        this looks like an OEM product (custom product). It’s certainly possible to manufacture it on China, however the MOQ (minimum order quantity) won’t be too low. How many pieces do you want to manufacture?

    12. Roy Lozano at 1:43 am

      Aloha from Hawaii,
      I have been “thinking” of having a watch manufactured for a couple of years. You set me straight on the realities of that particular brainstorm. Great info. But, lets say I had this “idea” for a watch and I know I don’t want to do all the legwork (my brain doesn’t work that way). Do you know of folks who have been successful in building a watch from standard components and maybe a customized case and successfully importing it to US without going broke or thrown into jail who would for a service fee take my “idea” to fruition? And speak English.
      Mahalo,
      R. J.

      1. Fredrik Gronkvist at 11:36 am

        Hi Roy,

        Not sure what you are looking for? You want an agent based in China?

    13. Luis at 6:26 pm

      Hi, my name is Luis.
      We want from any months creating and designing a new watch brand.
      Basicly we have all styles and we found two manufacturers in Shenzhen that
      they have many years manufacturing their own watches and they doing OEM
      watches too.

      The manufacturers we see are: Meigeer and Aiers.

      But we dont know if these are a good option quality/price to quartz watches.

      1. Fredrik Gronkvist at 8:21 am

        Hi Luis,

        We are familiar with these companies, but we don’t comment on individual manufacturers.

        But I can say that there are no “great” manufacturers. It comes down to the way you manage the process.

    14. Alan Ramsay at 12:29 pm

      Hi Fredrik

      I’m looking for Electroforming companies in China to manufacture a few thousand small mechanical components, can you recommend any, or know where I can find a list of such companies. Thanks in advance. Alan

    15. Alex at 10:11 am

      Hi Fredrik,

      We are starting up a watch brand, we are more of an electronics company, so we have been creating all the internals already. Now we need to get some help for manufacturing some prototypes of the actual watch itself and going into production. The main thing that worries me is finding the right supplier and managing quality control. Do you have any recommendations on suppliers? Please email me as well so we can discuss.

      Thanks
      Alex

    19. YOUSIF ALMEAMARI at 1:26 pm

      Hi,

      I would need your help on how to customize a specific watch design I have in mind. Its polycarbon in material and its been difficult to source a manufacturer that can do that. But I’ve heard there’s many in Shenzhen.

      Kindly communicate to with me via email. Hopefully we can collaborate.
      Thank you.

      Hi Fredrik

      I’ve been doing some research into watches.

      Would you please do me a favor and share some infos on the best quality watches from Chinese manufacturers. Ideally looking for manufacturers that can work with designs and work towards them together. I want to produce watches for kids – in my brand.

      Will be great if you could help me anyway.

    25. Berth at 3:28 pm

      Hello,

      Awesome guide, I love it.
      One thing I want to ask, is it possible that a factory can steal your design?
      We have this awesome and totally new design, 3d renders and other files are ready. We are a bit scared that a factory can steal your design or the idea from it, maybe copy it.

      Does this happen?

      1. ChinaImportal at 3:03 am

        Hi Berth,

        Yes, that is possible. You can apply for a design patent in the EU or US, to protect your design.

        I have a successful online shop where I am selling a single watch, my customers love it, but I would like to move further and design by myself the new series of watches after seeing the success in my store, and reading the feedback of my clients.

        For that I would need to present some designs that I have in mind to manufacturers in China.

        Can you please get in touch with me: info@photographers-watch.com

      Hi Fredrick,

      Thanks for such informative article, it helps a lot. I am now planning to launch my watch brand, in order to cross selling with my core business’s product. Currently looking for a genuine and quality manufacturer from China.

      Questions:
      1) Are they helpful in completing the design?
      2) How to protect the design from selling it to other?
      3) Is there MOQ required? I will start from small quantity and introduce it to market first.

      Hope you can email me some reliable watch manufacturers in China. (Of course i know that there is no free lunch in this world)

      Thanks and regards,
      Isaac

      1. ChinaImportal at 3:42 am

        Hello Isaac,

        1. They make a rendering based on the spec sheet you provide them. Don’t expect any creative input, as they don’t do design work.

        2. For watches you can basically only trademark your brand name

        3. Yes. At least 400 pcs per watch case design, and 200 pcs per plating.

        As for supplier details: We don’t share that for free, as it goes a lot of work into verifying manufacturers. However, we do include supplier details as part of the Buyer’s Guide: https://www.chinaimportal.com/watches/

      Hi Fredrik,

      I am a student looking to start my own fashion watch business and am in the process of designing. I have a CAD model but also require help to complete the design as the CAD model is more outer aesthetics than designed for water resistance etc. Are the manufacturers helpful in completing the design?

      Also what can I do to minimize the risk of the manufacturer taking my design and selling it on as a white label watch to another company in the future?

      Thank You!

      Hello! i`m reading all your articles thanks for sharing good practices, so in case i can choose a ready case and add logo and small changes on crown, hands. cause i want to create my own brand and bring pieces from China. Then i have a doubt regarding copyrights when the proposal is to use a catalog case/watch from China factory, how can i guarantee to avoid copy issues? or in case of watches that are so similar each model then does not apply this exclusivity? sorry i forgot to mention that i live in Brazil and want to make a contract with a China factory to start a new brand here. Also are there any way to secure quality for production pieces? something like a parts production assurance plan? or can we safe choose some suppliers that is well secured to deliver good parts or receive claim/refund. thank you, regards! Antonio

      1. ChinaImportal at 11:43 am

        Hi Antonio,

        The truth is that there’s no simple way to be sure that you don’t infringe on design patents.

        As for quality, you need a quality assurance procedure. This is a process that begins with drafting a product specification, and is managed throughout the production procedure.

    59. Barry at 9:42 pm

      Hi,

      I am currently researching my own watch brand which is based on a unique idea requiring an OEM build, I have a CAD and 3D artist and full description, logo, branding etc… but the next step being prototype building and design/manufacturing I am unsure how to find a suitable manufacturer in China. I want to ensure risk is kept low and time is not wasted getting designs and misinterpretations correct.

      Would really appreciate an email if screening and suggested manufacturers is something you provide?.

      Thanks

      Hi,

      I have been looking for a manufacturer for some time now and cannot seem to find one that lives up to my standards of professionalism.

      Do Chinese manufacturers not work with catalogs of stock parts they produce (dials, hands, cases, bracelets (wristbands), types of glass and crowns, including materials and dimensions)?

      Alternatively, do you have some suggestions on good Chinese OEM watch manufacturers?

      My best,

      If you can help me in anyway it would be appriciated.

        Hi Fredrik,

        I have been designing a range of watches to start my own business, mainly for women at the moment. I just wondered if you could help me and answer a few questions about finding a manufacturer when I can’t get to China as I’m in the UK.Who do you put your trust in? And what do they require off you in order to make your product? Does it need to be on photoshop or CAD??
        Your help would be greatly appreciated

        Thanks in advance
        Sarah

        1. Fredrik Grönkvist at 3:32 am

          Hi Sarah,

          Dealing with overseas manufacturers is not a matter of trust, but risk management.

          As for the design: Both 2D and 3D files are good. The suppliers normally make a technical drawing before making the prototype, that in turn is based what has been provided by the buyer. Hence, you don’t need to produce an entirely accurate design drawing yourself.

I have dealt with a couple manufactures via emails over the past 4 years, however I am worried about my Intellectual Property. I have designed a one of a kind watch type which most of the companies are able to do, however I am sticking with my most trusted manufacturing company.

      I have a lot of questions and I’m looking forward to hearing back from you.

      Kind regards,

      Amanda

      Hi Ferederick,

      Me and a partner are looking to set up a time piece brand out of the U.K., and are looking at the possiablities of using the Chinese market to source and supply these.

      I am looking for a supplier to help with my ambitions and goals.

      Any feed back would be gratefully appreciated.

      Kind Regards,
      Dom

        Hi Frederick!

        Did you know a place where we can make our own watches (with our designs) but without order more than 50pcs? Thanks!!

          Hi Iggy,

          Unfortunately I am not aware of any supplier with such a low MOQ

      Hellow Fredrick,
      I am looking forward to starting a small retail business in wrist watches particularly for men. I am looking for a genuine supplier from china. I don’t need cons and that’s why i am doing this research before I make any payment. Could you please list for me a few genuine suppliers you know.
      N/B its a start up business and so i do not need to do a lot of importation at the beginning but as time goes by, i am hopping to increase the volume. my email is kennymax254@gmail.com

            Dear chinaImportal
            I have been interested in creating a watch brand and I have already made a design but I don’t have enough information on how to go about it. I was able to gain a lot from everything you wrote and I am pleased. I would appreciate if you could please mail me with additional information on how to go about it.
            The email address is olagbemifisola@gmail.com.
            I look forward to your reply. Thanks and Godbless

            1. Fredrik Gronkvist at 8:20 pm

              Hello Fisola,

              I suggest you watch our free webinar: http://www.chinaimportal.com/webinar-a

              It explains how to find the right supplier, order samples and, well, the entire process actually.

      Hi Fredrik,

      I have been scouring the net and reading all your articles. I have learned more in the last few nights about importing watches from reading your work than I have from any other source.

      I am in the early stages of starting a micro-brand watch line of diver-style watches. I will be using standard factory cases for the first several models, and was hoping you could email me so I could ask you a few questions.

      Hope to hear from you,

      Shane

      1. Fredrik Grönkvist at 8:33 pm

        Hello Shane,

        Happy to hear that! I’ve already replied you by email

          Hi Fredrik

          I’ve been doing some research into watches and already have a website started.

          Would you please do me the biggest favor and share some info on the best quality watches from Chinese manufacturers. I am happy to pay a bit more because if quality is not there, the brand will suffer. Ideally looking for manufacturers that can work with designs and work towards them together.

          Sorry, I see you’ve had many replies already but if i could manage to get a little bit of info from you it would be much appreciated and would hopefully set me on my way.

          Kind Regards,
          Jake

              Hello Fredrik,

              i am thinking some time now to make my own watch Brand.
              this article was very helpful but i would love some more insight and guidance from you, if you are up for it feel free to send me an email.

              Thanks for your time,
              Stefanos.

            2. Ivan Malloci at 4:29 pm

              Hello Stefanos,

              first of all, did you watch our free webinar? It focus on watches, so I think you might find it useful: https://chinaimportal.easywebinar.live/webinar-a

              Also, it’s very difficult to provide “general guidance”, as we would end up repeating pretty much what we wrote on the article. However, feel free to contact us, if you have any specific questions: https://www.chinaimportal.com/contact-us/

              Cheers

              Ivan
