Indian Wrist Watch market

50 million wristwatches are sold in India every year. Not withstanding the presence of global players and the opening up of the market, the Indian market has always been dominated by a single player. In the past, till the late 80’s, in the mechanical era, HMT dominated the market. And after that it has again been the domination of a single company, Titan. Today Titan has almost 65% market share of the organized watch market in the country. The organized watch market itself is estimated at 35% of the total industry size...........

In value tterms the size of the organized market is estimated at around Rs. 1500 crores, which means that the average price of watches sold even today is less than Rs.1000!!!

Watches are typically segmented into specialist watches and fashion watches. All International watch brands have a clear position as to where they belong. In India most sales are in the fashion segment and this fine distinction has not yet been used by marketers. Male watch buyers far outnumber females and account for around 65% of sales. Students are the largest segment of buyers accounting for approximately 30% of the sales.

Since penetration is still low and the unorganized sector big, this industry has a lot of scope to grow both in value and volume. The jury is still out though whether the Indian companies like Titan will lead this growth or the global majors like Seiko, Citizen etc. After all the domestic players have hitherto grown because of a retail strategy and the wining global players are clearly focused on product

What is the source for the given data?

I didn't know that India has a big market for wristwatches until I read your post. But it doesn't say in your post that what' the average price of that buyers pay for watches. IMO, If they want cheap, consumers may opt for replicas.

Today, I went to the beach front with my kids.

I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She put the shell to her ear and screamed.
There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched
her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic
but I had to tell someone!

I am a great lover of Wrist Watches. I have noticed that lots of young people don’t wear a watch anymore, but they should. I have also noticed that lots of young people still get a watch for graduation and most of them will wear it. If we just keep giving watches for graduation we can convince these young people how great a good watch is.

Unknown said...

nice and informative article. Its true that indian watch market is dominated by Titan. However, i have recently seen some new watch brands in Indian market with quality and good taste. Personally, i have never liked sonata and fastrack watch designs. I find them too common for my liking. Recently, purchased a Van Raff watch and i am amazed to see the design and quality at the price they are offering it. Though they have limited designs but very striking looks and quality. great customer service and would love to see this brand around with more models in coming years. I reviewed Daniel Klein watches also, hardly liked anything about it. Low on quality, alloy watches with 6 months warranty on plating. are you serious? i paid INR 3000 for 6 months warranty on plating? totally ripped off.

As far as designing and features are concerned, few companies can match Apple. With this watch on your wrist, you can leave the iPhone at home. It comes in two sizes, 38 mm and 42 mm. The screen size, battery life, and the user experience are some of the challenges before every smartwatch manufacturer. Apple has apparently turned the corner with this best Wrist Watch or smartwatch for 2016. The high price ($349 onwards) might prove to be the only dampener to an otherwise excellent product. You can get every notification such as WhatsApp messages, Gmail alerts, and so on. This is also a good watch as far as watching your health is concerned. An Apple product, you can have “Siri” on board as well. Even with lack of GPS in its basic version, this is a damn good smartwatch.
