How can you tell if a watch is Australian-made?
The good news is businesses that have Australian-made products will attempt to make it clear that they manufacture locally. A few things you can look out for include the green Australian-made triangle or product labels. The famous Australian Made, Australian Grown logo indicates that as well as being made here, the parts of the watch are sourced locally as well. We recommend checking out the Australian Made website to double-check any brands that you aren't 100% clear on where they manufacture.
Another option is to visit the "About" pages on the websites as businesses will usually outline where their production factories are located as well as the supply chain.
Why buy Australian-made watches?
Buying Australian-made watches means a number of positive outcomes, not only for yourself but for the local economy. You'll find buying timepieces manufactured right in our own backyard tend to have the following:
- Faster shipping times: By buying within Australia, you won't have to worry about those massive costs for international shipping that are usually added to your cart.
- Easier and cheaper returns: In the case that you need to return your item, you can send it back for a fraction of the price.
- Economic injection: Shopping through local businesses means your money is going straight back into the economy.
Are Australian-made watches more expensive?
Australian-made watches range in price from a couple of hundred dollars to a few thousand per piece.
More expensive prices can be attributed to ethical production. With manufacturing being in Australia, costs need to cover the higher minimum wages of production workers. This also goes hand in hand with keeping up with the Australian health and safety standards for workplaces.
Overall, the higher price point does even itself out with quality standards, no international shipping or transaction fee and real-time customer service.
