In 2023, China imported 115.48 thousand kilograms of clock or watch dials. The forecast for the following years shows a significant decline: 2024 anticipates 95.87 thousand kg, 2025 predicts 78.24 thousand kg, decreasing steadily to 27.43 thousand kg by 2028. Year-on-year changes indicate a consistent downward trend with approximately a 19% decline each year, and a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around -18% over five years.
Future trends to watch include shifts in consumer preferences potentially favoring digital timekeeping solutions, which could further reduce demand. Technological advancements in smartwatch features might also diminish the traditional clock and watch market, affecting import needs.
