Formex Watches Return, Now More Affordable & Only Sold Online Watch Industry News

Sponsored Post written for aBlogtoWatch by advertiser

Formex Swiss Watches, based in Biel/Bienne Switzerland, is a maker of action-sport-influenced steel and titanium watches. In 1998, inspired by the engineering and mechanics of high-performance racing cars and bikes, the founding father Hans-Peter Grädel invented and patented a suspension system that, to this day, gives each Formex watch a distinctive look. It was built to withstand shocks and conform more comfortably to the wrist. Lately, it’s been quiet around the small brand, but behind the curtains, Formex went through some big changes. Under the leadership of the company’s new CEO, Raphael Granito, Formex has just launched a new online store and completely moved away from the brick and mortar retail business.

Formex watches are now sold online exclusively at the company’s own website. This has allowed them to cut consumer prices by almost 50 percent, without having to compromise on product quality and technical features. Besides better pricing, Formex introduced a range of services that wiped out the common drawbacks you might have already experienced while shopping online. Their all-inclusive policy guarantees free worldwide shipping, includes all taxes and duties, a 30-day free return as well as a 2-year warranty. All orders are assembled, finished, and sent out from their head office in Biel, allowing delivery within Switzerland the next day and no more than three business days across the globe.

Formex’s patented suspension system in action

The new online shop features Formex’s three primary 46.5mm collections: the AS 1100, DS 2100 and the latest model TS 3100, all with a strap width of 22mm. For each model, there are multiple options with bracelets, colors and movements. The common theme that runs through the lines is the watch case that is suspended in a vertically sliding patented suspension system which connects the case back of the watch to the lower part of the suspension and the bracelet and lugs to the upper part of the suspension system.

Some of Formex’s bracelet and strap options

Formex accessories fit on all their collections. Using their Wrist Measuring Tool makes sure that your bracelet is delivered in the right size. You might want to go for the silicone strap with fold-over clasp for the sporty, or the nearly indestructible titanium bracelet with folding buckle for the heavy-duty operations, while the classy Italian leather strap “dresses” your watch for more formal occasions. Just as their watches, Formex’s bracelets are reasonably priced and straightforward to replace.

Formex ambassadors at work

While Formex continues to team up with motorsports professionals who share their passion for speed, precision, mechanics, and adrenaline, the exclusive online business might be a step into new territory for them. However, it is a whole new level for the benefit of the customer with an unprecedented value for money for Swiss-made quality watches. With no third-party retailer involved, the Formex experience will be, true to their new slogan, entirely between you and them.
