AlbertaTime in China, China visit #3, Post #11 - covering June 27th to 29th/2014...
25th Annual Shenzhen China Watch and Clock Fair in Shenzhen (Part 2)

The Rest of the show...

Warning: this is a monster post, almost 200 modem-taxing photographs...

The next morning, Day 2 of the China Watch and Clock Fair. Galen (btgalen) and I left the hotel together to walk to the Fair location, only a few blocks away, as LiWei and some others had a private meeting to attend.

These next shots are from that walk. It was about 10:30AM and already it was well over 30°C and very humid...but gorgeous.

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_10.jpg

So we made it to the Convention Center and...

...from here on in, I\'m just going to post about the rest of the China Watch and Clock Fair, but in no particular chronological order.

The next few days were a whirlwind of activity, meetings and dinners, booth visits and revisits, lots of general wandering, a magazine and a radio interview...so I\'m going to break up the report on the rest of the fair (27th/28th/29th) into two sections, with today\'s post being about the Fair itself (the remaining three days), and the next post being about the social evenings during the fair.

So: At the Fair...

...very good food...

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_114.jpg

...and it was here that I concluded the deal with Liu Zhi Yang for my awesome Jintuofei tourbillon.

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_116.jpg

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_116a.jpg

It was also here that I was interviewed by Ms. Rachel Xie for China\'s Moment magazine (http://www.ewatch.cn), the horological publication of the Shenzhen Fitime Conference and Exhibition Culture Co. Ltd., with very kind translation assistance from Ms. Tina Luo of ZhuHai Rossini

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_118.jpg

I loved discovering this company\'s clocks although I don\'t know anything about them. They build beautiful smaller clocks...

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_125.jpg

Wandering around, and to the Beijing Watch Factory booth for some more photos...

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_126.jpg

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_127.jpg

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_131.jpg

And we run into a new Beijing SB-18 watch that has attracted some attention already on a few forums since being posted by WUS member ntchen

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_132.jpg

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_133.jpg

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_135.jpg

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_136.jpg

Another one I haven\'t seen before from beijing...

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_136a.jpg

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_136b.jpg

And a watch that bears surface similarities with Ben\'s Imperial, except the differences show Ben\'s attention to detail. The Beijing has a much plainer crown and case (especially lugs), finer finishing on the indices, and the Beijing radiant crysanthemum wave guilloche is only the wave pattern to the edge, unlike the Imperial\'s alternate band of pattern inside the chapter ring.

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_137.jpg

http://www.rongood.net/amchpr/cwcfair2/1cwcf_2_138.jpg

We leave Beijing for Tianba, and thanks for hospitality to mr. Zhang Chen Jian.

We also made a quite detailed visit to Ezon, possibly China\'s top brand of \"smart\" and/or digital multifunction watches, and talked with Marketing Assistant Kelly Ng translating during discussions with Manager Mr. Ai Qi When I asked for a brand I could use as a reasonable comparison, I was advised that these are competitive with Suunto in both quality and function.

And that\'s what I saw in Shenzen at the 25th Annual China Watch and Clock Fair from June 26th to 29th. It was a highly educational and very busy four days.

I\'ll close this post with a shot out my hotel window, and a look down at a local school next to the hotel, and finally a few shots of the Fair and surroundings...
