Who appear to be hell-bent on capturing the "teen to thirty" demographic by tapping into various "that's how I want to see myself!" identity products, and who have a (fuzzy) relationship with a large Chinese watch manufacturing company, they seem very high on:
"We feel very fortunate to work with a factory in China that is every bit as professional as any we've ever seen in Switzerland, and in fact is superior to many."
And are also not shy about explaining their marketing direction and focus:
"We understand the importance of style and trend, and work closely with Research and Development Teams in Hong Kong and China to bring original ideas, customers’ requirements and expertise together to satisfy our customers’ needs."
