Citizen Watches Honoured with Brand Award

Sept. 2, 2011 - PRLog -- Citizen watches have picked up a prestigious award at a recent jewellery industry event in Australia.

Citizen, which has previously been named ‘Watch Brand of the Year’ by awarding bodies, is celebrating the honour of being named the New Zealand Supplier of the Year at the International Jewellery Fair in Australia.

It is the second year in a row that Citizen has scooped the prize at the trade event, which brings over 200 exhibitors from the world of jewellery and watches together every single year.

Jeweller Magazine reports that the award, which was presented by Nationwide Jewellers, inspired Citizen marketing manager Rod Willment to comment: "Working closely with Nationwide allowed us to connect with our market and help re-assess our brand and pricing strategy for middle-market watch consumers in New Zealand.”

The Jewellery Fair also hosted a showcase of some of the biggest and best new designs in the industry, with a catwalk model show highlighting this season’s new styles.

Citizen watches is a bestselling watch brand throughout the world, combining practical designs with superior technology. The brand’s roll call of A-list ambassadors, a majority of whom are from the world of sport, also highlight its esteemed reputation and global pull; one ambassador includes tennis player Kim Clijsters, who was victorious this year at the 2011 Australian Open Championship.
