Exhibition Highlights and EcoRing the Auction's Achievements
On the first day of the event, a long queue had already formed in front of the venue before 8 AM, demonstrating the enthusiasm of watch buyers. With thousands of buyers gathering in one place, this event truly reflects the unique scale of Hong Kong.
EcoRing the Auction primarily exhibited high-end branded watches from Japan and engaged in numerous business discussions with buyers. Brands such as Rolex and Omega attracted significant attention, and our booth received a constant stream of visitors.
Key Achievements
- Sales Performance: Over 50% of exhibited watches were sold on-site.
- New Business Negotiations: Established direct contact with over 100 buyers.
- Market Trend Analysis: Gained insights into the latest needs of the Hong Kong market.
Following fluctuations in the exchange rate and tariff policies after the inauguration of U.S. President Trump, the Japanese watch market has shown instability. However, Hong Kong buyers’ purchasing power remains strong, with a growing interest in the pre-owned market.
The Appeal of the Hong Kong Market
Hong Kong is one of the world’s most active watch markets. The key reasons include:
- Low tariffs, making it easy to trade pre-owned watches.
- International buyers gather, allowing for better understanding of global pricing trends.
- A well-established market for high-end consumers with strong demand for luxury brand watches.
Given this market environment, EcoRing the Auction will continue to monitor industry trends closely and strengthen relationships with more buyers.
