Idea Generation
Idea Generation
Your ideas are the starting point, and our role is to help you refine and develop them into a clear, workable concept. We encourage our customers to take the lead in shaping their own designs, while our team provides guidance, technical expertise, and practical advice to ensure the final result is both achievable and aligned with your brand identity.
For clients who are less familiar with design tools or materials, we can step in to create a 2D design and propose solutions. However, our preference is always to work side‑by‑side, with customers making the design, so that all details are fully generated by the customer with our technical verification and support. This approach not only saves time but also ensures that the product reflects your vision without unnecessary revisions. Together, we transform your idea into a design that is distinctive, practical, and ready for development.
Product Design
Stage 1: Sketches & Designs
At this stage, we work side‑by‑side with you to transform your initial concept into a clear visual direction. Together, we define the essential elements that will shape your timepiece — from case dimensions and dial layouts to colors, finishes, materials, and movements.
By the end of this stage, you will have a well‑structured design blueprint that captures your idea in full detail and sets the course for the next steps of development.
Stage 2: Two-Dimensional Computer-Simulated Drawings
Once the initial sketches and design concepts are defined, the next step is to translate them into precise two‑dimensional computer‑simulated drawings. These technical graphics provide accurate proportions and details, ensuring that every element of the project is clearly visualized before moving forward.
Stage 3: Three-Dimensional Designs
Only upon your request, we will then create 3-D drawings based on the 2-D version so that you will have a detailed understanding about the shape and design of the watch from different angles.
Stage 4: Hand-Made Prototype
Prior to production, we will create a hand-made prototype for you to confirm the size, shape, and visual impression of your product.
Manufacturing
Manufacturing
FTM also works with a network of selected components suppliers in Switzerland and China.
As coordination is the most important key success factor in the manufacturing process, we will closely monitor component quality and delivery schedules. All components are checked and tested individually before leaving for assembly.
Assembly Services
We have assembly plants in Switzerland, Hong Kong, and China. You can choose from any of these plants. The majority of our price-conscious customers enjoy our prompt and reliable assembly service in Hong Kong and China.
For Swiss assembly, we offer a Certificate of Origin issued by the Swiss Chamber of Commerce and the “Swiss Made” logo stamped on each timepiece.
Water-resistant grades are available from shower-proof to 100 ATM (professional diver grade).
