Techno Timepieces - How the Japanese brands dominateBy Jeff SaltonThe Japanese have developed their own niches to compete in the Swiss-dominated global watch market. The high-tech brands have wide appeal and even wider ranges, so much so that the only real difficulty for consumers and retailers is choosing the right watch.

Leading Japanese watch brands Seiko, Citizen and Casio have long been household names within the retail watch and jewellery industry thanks to their reputation for producing technologically-advanced, inexpensive and durable timepieces.

watches

swiss replica watches The Japanese quartz movement revolutionised the watch category when the first quartz watches were marketed in 1969. Not only did quartz timepieces operate without winding, but they also boasted accuracy about 100 times better than traditional Swiss watches, dropping out by no more than 20 seconds a month compared to a shift in performance of anywhere between 10 and 60 seconds in a single day for their Swiss competitors.

top brand watches So popular was the quartz breakthrough that Japan quickly became the worldâs largest timepiece producer, manufacturing some 60 million watches domestically in 1979. Today, younger generations want their watches to be fashion-forward, technologically-advanced and available at affordable prices.

Some models are even touted as indestructible. But these timepieces arenât only for the younger consumers. Japanese watches have wide appeal and even wider product ranges, so much so that the only real difficulty for consumers (and retailers) is choosing between the brands.

Seiko From the suppliers

How do the suppliers view themselves as being different to the Swiss brands?

 

âJapanese brands have always been pioneers of technology; thatâs the main difference between us and the Swiss watch brands,â Seiko Watchesâ group marketing manager Stuart Smith says. âAt Seiko, weâre a fully vertically-integrated watch and clock company, whereas some of the Swiss brands outsource some of their materials.â

 

Swiss watch brands regularly list their rich heritage as a sales feature, but Smith says the Seiko brand has a substantial heritage of its own: âWhile we might promote ourselves as a technology brand, we have just celebrated our 100-year anniversary so we have our own heritage too. There are a few Swiss brands out there without that type of heritage.â

 

Citizen Watches sales and marketing manager Rod Willment believes the strength of the Japanese companies lies in their ability âto produce sophisticated watches on a scale and at a price that is more acceptable to the marketplaceâ.

 

âWhat distinguishes Citizen from other watch brands is the fact that our concept models are never created just for the sake of exploring new ideas. Rather, they are always released as real production models and receive high praise for their unique design and innovative technologies,â Willment explains.

 

Heritage Vs Innovation âSwiss brands rely heavily on their heritage as a watch brand, whereas Japanese companies are about the future of watch-making and using innovation and new technology to extend these boundaries. Our approach toward innovation has been the core of our DNA for over 80 years, and has allowed us to bring a higher level of sense and purpose to new technologies and sophisticated design.â

 

Bruno Bouchet is national sales and marketing manager for Casio Watches, part of the Shriro Group. He argues the differences between Swiss and Japanese brands are highlighted in the different marketing approaches each employs.

 

âThereâs no denying it â Swiss companies have done a terrific job in creating classic and prestigious chronographs. Their focus has always been on the branding of âSwiss-madeâ, which enjoys a solid reputation globally, where Japanese watch companies have shaken things up is when it comes to innovation, price-point and fashion which is why the market has responded so positively to the cutting-edge technologies that have been incorporated in their timepieces.â Bouchet cites Casio in particular as a watch brand that has thrived on solving problems.

âAs a response to watches that would constantly break, Casio invented the G-Shock,â he explains. âFast-forward 30 years and over 65 million G-Shocks have been sold. Put simply, Japanese brands stand for innovation.â

 

Citizen G-Shockâs 2011 release of the worldâs first shock-resistant smart watch is just one of a handful of innovations that consumers are currently enjoying, and highlights the Japanese companyâs ability to solve the problem of how to develop watches that have the latest cutting-edge technologies but can still take a beating.

 

On the topic of innovation, Seikoâs Smith puts forward a strong case for his brand:âSeiko was first with the quartz watch in 1969 and more recently introduced kinetic technology, stored energy in a watch. This type of technology underwent a whole series of patents. Now we have kinetic direct drive, plus traditional mechanical and automatic watches. In 2005, we launched spring drive, a hybrid style of watch featuring moving parts with quartz accuracy â it certainly separates us from all other brands.â

 

This innovation is a source of great pride for the Japanese industry, pride that flows from the factory to the sales floor.

 

âWeâve always been the market leaders when it comes to technology,â Smith beams, adding âWhile the Swiss get excited about changing the size of the crown, we get excited by technological changes, better battery life, solar-power and GPS-enabled watches.â

 

In 2012, Seiko was first to market with its Astron GPS watch, an analogue model that boasts solar power and 39 time zones, and which communicates with satellites to deliver pinpoint accuracy to +/- one second every 100,000 years.

 

âItâs the most advanced quartz watch on the market,â Smith states.

 

When the Astron series launched internationally with six models, Australia took five of them, with price points of $2,700 up to $5,500. Smith says for a relatively small local audience, the Astron series is doing exceptionally well, and a second-generation version has recently been released with four more models..

Women and technology Our marketing trio agrees that women are not typically influenced by technology in their timepieces, preferring fashion over function, but that doesnât mean the brands ignore the ladies.

 

âWhile guys like technology, females are drawn to design,â Smith says, admitting that Seiko is positioned more as a male brand, something reflected in its sell-through ratio of 65 per cent male and 35 per cent female.

 

âTo attract female buyers, Seiko has concentrated more on ladiesâ collections in the past few years and has moved into more products that have diamonds and stones,â Smith adds.

 

Casio Seiko has also chosen Russian Darya Klishina, an Olympic-level long-jumper, as its ladies brand ambassador. Smith says she embodies what the brand conveys â sporty yet feminine.

 

Willment says women play a very important role in any watch selection process, either purchasing watches as gifts for their male partners or advising those partners when they are looking to purchase; however, style and design are only as important to men as technology â functionality plays an important role in their decision process.

 

âCitizen recognises the importance of the female customer,â Willment says, adding that the brand introduced a new ladies range called the Citizen L Collection in 2012, with L standing for ladies. âItâs a range inspired by natural beauty, design speaking of serenity and elegance. This range was successfully launched in 2012 and we will add new models this year with the knowledge and confidence that Citizen has a strong and loyal female customer base.â

 

Over at Casio, Bouchet says Baby-G will celebrate its 20th anniversary in 2014, a milestone expected to attract female customers. âBoth locally and internationally, Baby-G has been hugely successful in creating timepieces that are relevant to fashion trends all whilst being tough and packed with important functionalities,â he says, emphasising the importance of the brand to luring the ladies.

 

âBaby-G is the perfect âsister brandâ for G-Shock. Whilst G-Shock has teamed up on designs with the likes of Eminem and the Wu-Tang Clan, Baby-G has teamed up with Ke$ha and influential brands such as Married To The Mob and Joy Rich. Baby-G designers have been terrific in ensuring that their watches reflect the latest trends.

 

âI remember getting a frantic phone call late one night from a Japanese colleague who was in Milan. âBruno, pastel colours are the next big thing.â Within a few months, Baby-G had a strong pastel offering that was both beautiful and tough.â

 

Japanese watch companies traditionally have healthy marketing budgets in order to help consumers distinguish between the brands, and ambassadors play a large role.

âWe strive to use global brand ambassadors, rather than local identities that donât translate well to other markets, in order to connect with the widest market,â Smith says, adding that there is even a difference in the ambassadors used by the Japanese and the Swiss. âThe Swiss use brand ambassadors that tie in with their aspirational timepieces, whereas we [seiko] use ambassadors from the sporting arena our brand is known for its functionality.â

 

Sporting partnerships

In order to help form a link between technology and sporting culture, Seiko has partnered with European soccer giant FC Barcelona.

 

Seiko âWhen people talk about sport, they mention the timing accuracy that you can only get with good Japanese watches. Thatâs where Seiko is renowned. When it comes to technology, if youâre not up at the top of the tree, youâre a follower,â Smith says, adding that Seiko was ranked number four in marketing spend in the Australian watch market for 2012, and has been in the top 10 for each of the past eight years. âWeâre the largest mainstream watch spenders across three brands: Seiko, Pulsar and Lorus.â

 

Each of Seikoâs brands is aimed at specific consumer price points: Seiko, $350 to $1,200 mainstream, Astron is above that and Grand Seiko ranges from $5,000 to $10,000 (mainstream) up to $30,000 for its gold and platinum models. Pulsar watches are priced around $150-$350, while Lorus sits at the bottom end of $49-$200.

 

âWe think itâs difficult for a single brand to have that stretch across all price points,â Smith says. âPulsar and Lorus give a lot more spread across the market. Weâre the second largest watch company in Australia behind Swatch, which has the multiple brands under the swatch banner. Combine all three Seiko brands and weâd be the largest unit seller across the market.â

 

âCitizen is a brand that suits every customerâs budget,â Willment attests, âstarting at the entry level Eco-Drive at $250 all the way to the top end Citizen Eco-Drive Satellite Wave-Air priced at $2,999. For those customers who feel technology is not that important but still want a reliable and quality watch at an affordable price, we have the Citizen Quartz range that is priced below $250.â

 

Bouchet boasts that Casio has been brilliant at aligning itself with the most relevant people and brands. âThe demographic weâre going after doesnât want to simply be sold a watch; they want to be sold a reflection of their lifestyle,â he explains. âPut simply, if their idols are digging it, they want to wear it.â

Watch this space âŚ

Unsurprisingly, all three companies confirmed they have big plans for the future.

 

At Seiko, Smith says there will be more extensions to the Seiko GPS collection in mainstream models. In fact, the company is currently launching 98 new designs. A new app is also being launched for iPhone, iPad and Android that will have a watch selector and a local store locator with 252 premium stores. It will also contain the latest advertising, news and watch range.

 

Citizen will be launching new flagship models, including Eco-Drive Satellite Wave-Air and Eco-Drive Altichron. First marketed in 2011, Eco-Drive Satellite Wave became the worldâs first watch to feature the precision satellite time-keeping system that could give the exact time wherever worn in the world.

 

World's first watch with a titanium case. Launched in 1970 by Citizen âThe new Eco-Drive Satellite Wave-Air incorporates newer technologies and a provocative aerodynamic design,â Willment explains. âLikewise, succeeding the Altichron model that was originally released in 1989, the new Eco-Drive Altichron extends the modelâs legendary altimeter performance and elevates the multi-functionality even higher.â

 

Casio is moving ahead with version two of the G-Shock Smart Watch which, according to Bouchet, â will allow users to control their music, read text messages and screen calls all from the comfort of their wristsâ.

 

Bouchet expects the soon-to-be-released G-Shock x Eminem collaboration model to become the most highly-sought collaboration model in the history of G-Shock and says the iconic design of the DW6900 is to receive a face-lift â the new GDX6900 series will have a bigger face and added functionalities.

 

âWeâre excited about the new designs for Baby-G. There had been a lot of demand for female-friendly versions of the popular G-Shock Duo GA110 series,â Bouchet says.

 

After decades of innovation, the future has arrived, and Japanese watches find themselves well-positioned as cherished lifestyle accessories jam-packed with high-end, easily-accessible technology.

The SlantInvestor PlaceSearchlisten upNovember 8, 2013, 6:03 am ESTSponsored By:Will Pandora Stock Crash as Apple and Google Compete?P stock is up 220% in the last year, so Pandora earnings better be perfect

Pandora ( P ) has seen its stock soar in 2013, from under $10 a share to a high above $26 currently.

tag heuer watches Pandora earnings have shown narrowed losses and significant revenue increases. And going forward, projections show the streaming radio giant is around break-even now and will be soundly profitable in the coming year.

rado watches But Pandora stock has a forward price-to-earnings multiple in the triple digits. And now that big gains have been made in P stock, is it time to consider trimming back?

Armani Watches Considering the increased competition from Apple ( AAPL ) via its iTunes radio and the looming launch of a new YouTube streaming audio service from Google ( GOOG ), that may be wise.

Pandora Stock is Different than Pandora the Product

Audemars Piguet Watches For the record, I am a big Pandora fan. I regularly use the product.

rado watches After AAPL iTunes radio debuted I did play with the service a bit, but after refining some pretty great stations I’m not all that eager to switch.

Many Pandora users may feel the same way. But don’t confuse Pandora the product with P stock as an investment.

Yes, last quarter, user growth was 30% year-over-year to over 71 million people on Pandora. But as we saw with Tesla ( TSLA ) after Q3 Tesla earnings , a big momentum stock doesn’t have to post a lack of growth to crash. Simply missing expectations on guidance can be enough to send investors scurrying for cover.

That’s the burden facing Pandora stock right now in advance of Q3 earnings.

The first minor misstep can be seen as a hint that momentum is slowing, and nobody wants to be holding the bag as a fast-growing stock like Pandora starts to crumble.

That’s the risk you take with a high-multiple stock like Tesla, Pandora or the like.

Click to Enlarge Furthermore, consider that despite the big run-up in Pandora stock, short-sellers have not abandoned their positions at all. Take a look at the chart at right, compiled from Nasdaq data , that shows a pretty consistent short interest in P stock … even though in the last 12 months, Pandora has tripled!

Sure, volume is up so the days to cover has dropped, but short sellers are still camped out at the exact same rate of roughly 25% to 30% of the total “float” in outstanding Pandora stock.

All this is not to say that a stock with a P/E of 100 has to crash — simply look at the sustained gains in Amazon.com ( AMZN ) as proof of a company that investors keep believing in despite relatively meager profits.

But those who forget the realities of nosebleed valuations and high short interest do so at their peril.

Google and Apple are Tough Competition

The bulls point out that in addition to specific growth for Pandora, the streaming audio space broadly is an increasingly popular medium.

In fact, Pandora posted just 7% penetration across the U.S. radio market in its last earnings report — a figure that is undoubtedly a small sliver of how big it could grow.

But Pandora doesn’t exist in a vacuum, and just because streaming radio holds big potential does not mean that P stock will remain the leader.

The threat from big tech players like AAPL and GOOG is real. iTunes Radio enjoyed 11 million unique listeners  just five days after launch. Though a lot of those folks were likely just testing the waters, the long-term threat isn’t that existing Pandora users will migrate over en masse but that the fluid integration of iTunes radio with the Apple iPhone and iPad lines will ensure new users stay within the AAPL ecosystem.

The same holds true for Google, which is increasingly trying to take over the entire Internet. There are many stories and rumors out there of a YouTube streaming radio service, which could be seamlessly integrated into the GOOG universe of Nexus hardware as well as its other internet products.

Oh, and don’t forget smaller audio players like Sirius XM ( SIRI ) or iHeartRadio owned by Clear Channel  or privately held Spotify …

You get the idea.

The growth Pandora has seen thus far has been impressive. As I stated, Pandora earnings  in August showed 30% user growth — along with record revenue after a 58% year-over-year jump and a significant bump to its mobile reach.

But 90 days ago, Wall Street was looking for 8 cents a share in earnings and those forecasts have been lowered to about 6 cents per P stock share in advance of the Nov. 21 earnings report from Pandora.

If growth isn’t great on both revenue and profits and users, then it’s going to be rough for this momentum darling.

Not because Pandora isn’t a great product or because the company will go bankrupt, but simply because expectations for P stock are too great and investors will want to take their cash off the table.

Netflix and YouTube Dominate Online Video Traffic, Pandora Tops Audioposted by Shelly JonesNovember 12, 2013Tech & ScienceTweet

pandora Netflix continued to grow as the dominant video streaming service in the U.S., its competitors are also growing, according to Internet research firm Sandvine . Measured by bytes, the two sites now make up more than half of Internet traffic in the U.S using data from September.

pandora jewelry on sale Leader of  the board was Netflix with 31.62 percent of all peak downstream traffic, while YouTube was responsible for 18.69 percent of all peak downstream traffic. Amazon video, which consists of both VOD and Prime subscription streams, was responsible for just 1.61 percent of all peak downstream traffic, and Hulu came in at just 1.29 percent.

pandora jewelry on sale The future will see “real-time entertainment applications dominate fixed access networks, accounting for two-thirds of total data usage in 2018, driven largely by ubiquitous integration between devices (e.g. smart TVs, set-tops, game consoles) and streaming services,” Sandvine wrote. “Web Browsing will continue be the second-largest source of traffic, partly driven by the number of mobile devices at use in the home.”

pandora jewelry on sale For 2013, It was a good experience for Netflix so far. After the debut of its wildly popular original series ”House of Cards,” the company reported first quarter revenue of $1.02 billion. Netflix had signed another 2.03 million domestic subscribers, bringing the total in the United States to 29.17 million subscribers, up from 23.41 million a year earlier.

pandora cheap outlet If Youtube wants to truly compete with the likes of Netflix, it need to boost its servers, Sandvine suggested . Sandvine noted two “pronounced dips” in YouTube quality on a normal day: during the evenings and during the lunch hour.

pandora jewelry sale Pandora is still the top audio app. “Interestingly, its share of downstream traffic over a 24-hour period (5.5 percent) is actually higher than peak period (5 percent),” Sandvine said. “This phenomenon is likely due to subscribers using the service consistently throughout the day, while some other applications may have their usage concentrated during peak period.”
