Here's the spiel. Chinese microbrands get a bad rap and you've probably heard this. The truth is more... complicated than 'cheap equals bad.' In truth, there are real designers building real watches in China. Every bit as passionate and talented as those in Geneva. Show up open-minded and you'll find some of them on this page. (And if you're not open-minded... why are you on a discovery platform anyway? Don't you have a Tudor to polish?)
