\n\tBangalore Watch Company<\/strong>\u2122 will make its debut at New York Watch Week 2026, becoming the first Indian watch brand to do so. This week marks an important step in the brand\u2019s growing international presence, giving it an opportunity to take modern Indian watchmaking to a global audience.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tIndia is increasingly in the spotlight with the global watch industry, with the country becoming one of the fastest-growing markets for Swiss watch imports. The growing consumption of Swiss watches and an interest in mechanical watches have made India an important market for watch brands from around the world.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile many international watch brands are looking at India as a growing market, Bangalore Watch Company\u2122 is taking a different approach. The brand is building from India, with an ambition to take the brand global.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIndia is getting a lot of attention from the watch world right now, and it\u2019s great to see that. But for us, the idea was never to build only for India. We are building the brand here in India, but we want to take it to people and collectors around the world,\u201d <\/em>said Nirupesh Joshi, Co-Founder of Bangalore Watch Company\u2122<\/strong>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tThe brand\u2019s international journey has included its debut at Dubai Watch Week in 2025, followed by its participation at Geneva Watch Days in 2026. The brand\u2019s watches have also been listed on the Grand Prix d\u2019Horlogerie de Gen\u00e8ve (GPHG) for two consecutive years. The brand\u2019s recent funding from family office principals, HNIs and some of its own customers in India and overseas has also helped the brand take its international plans forward.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe USA is our largest market after India, and being in New York gives us an opportunity to meet our community, understand how people connect with our brand, and build relationships in the United States,\u201d <\/em>said Mercy Amalraj, Co-Founder of Bangalore Watch Company\u2122.<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tThe brand has used exotic materials like Meteorites, Cerasteel and Captured Carbon for watchmaking These materials have become an important part of the brand\u2019s modern-India identity.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tAs more people around the world discover independent watch brands from different parts of the world, Bangalore Watch Company\u2122 is building a unique point of view from India by creating watches with stories that are rooted in modern India, while reaching the watch community beyond borders.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t\u00a0<\/p>\n
