Every month like clockwork, the Federation of the Swiss Watch Industry (FH) carefully tracks and reports on global watch exports. Recent trends show an uptick in Swiss Watch exports, reversing a period of lackluster performance caused by changing economic and political circumstances around the globe.
For the past four straight months, export numbers have been on the rise, and for the month of August 2017 — over the month of August 2016 — there was a 4.2 percent increase in Swiss watch exports. The total value of exports as of the close of August this year was 1.4 billion Swiss Francs ($1.41 billion). The solid 4.2 percent rise in overall exports supports the notion that consumers around the globe continue to view Swiss watches as highly desirable luxury items.
In a world where no one really "needs" a watch, we are seeing more self purchases and gift purchases of watches — both new and vintage. We encourage you to stop in and see our great selection of watches. Your next timepiece could be the single most important statement about yourself that you can make.
