City Chain

Established in 1985, City Chain is the first watch retail chain in Hong Kong, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Stelux Holdings International Limited. Stelux was founded in 1963 as one of the earliest watch component manufacturers in the Far East and has grown to become an integrated watch group, owning several Swiss watch brands, including Universal Genève, Cyma, Solvil et Titus and Catena. The Group also manufactures Swiss watch movements under the Catena brand. In 1972, Stelux was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (Stock Code: 00084.HK).

Since opening its doors, City Chain has continuously developed its extensive store network, strong watch brand portfolio and industry-leading customer service, all in support of the vision to be the best watch retailer in Asia.
