EXPORTS of Swiss luxury watches in the January-June period posted their strongest first-half growth in six years, led by higher demand in Asia and the United States.
World shipments of Swiss high-end timepieces jumped 10.5 per cent from the year-ago first half to 10.5 billion Swiss francs (S$14.6 billion) in January-June this year. This was the first time the figure breached the CHF10 billion mark since 2015.
