Where the story began

S Company was a traditional watch company in Spain. However, as the popularity of smart wearable technology grew and more people were attracted to the health benefits and fashion styles provided by smartwatches, S Company decided to expand into the smartwatch market. In 2017, they acquired a smartwatch manufacturer and began their own research and development of smartwatches.

However, in 2018 when they had been in the smartwatch manufacturing industry for one year, they discovered that smartwatch manufacturing was much more difficult for an outsider to start from the scratch. Manufacturing smartwatches may not be as easy as it seems, as a smartwatch is composed of so many different parts, including a motherboard, a chip, several sensors, a battery, a case, a pair of straps, and so on. As such, if you don’t have a really strong supply chain with trustworthy and high-quality suppliers in all aspects, you will not become a competitive player in the market.

After wasting one year trying to manufacture smartwatches on their own, they decided to find a reliable supplier. In 2019, S Company sent one of their R&D engineers, Aday (assumed name), to attend a Hong Kong watch fair where DTNO.1 was also exhibiting. Aday discovered DTNO.1 while searching for a partner eligible to be their smartwatch manufacturer.

Why they chose us

Aday was attracted to DTNO.1’s booth when he saw so many fashion smartwatches with exquisite appearances displayed on the showing desk. As he manipulated one of the smartwatches on the desk, he found not only its appearance attractive, but also its operation outstandingly smooth.

After chatting with one of DTNO.1's sales representatives, he formed an abstract impression of DTNO.1 as a great smartwatch manufacturer located in Shenzhen and the company takes advantage of China's well-established manufacturing capacity and the most comprehensive industry hub where you can find any suppliers in the market. Bearing such a good first impression of DTNO.1 in mind, Aday was propelled to have a thorough understanding of the company.

Aday was invited to DTNO.1’s office located in the CBD of Nanshan district, where DTNO.1’s founder was waiting for him. In the meeting, Aday, on behalf of the S company, communicated with us what S company cared about the most was a smartwatch manufacturer could provide competent OEM&ODM services, and the manufacturer could satisfy any needs or requests from them and complete the tasks on time.

Aday was pleased to have found DTNO.1 as their strategic partner after the founder introduced the OEM&ODM services that DTNO.1 was capable of. As a leading smartwatch manufacturer, DTNO.1 has been in the smartwatch industry for more than a decade and has accumulated extensive experience in smartwatch manufacturing. DTNO.1 has built a professional research and development team that comprises dozens of technological specialists who are graduates of top research institutions worldwide.

Apart from that, DTNO.1 has developed an app called Wearpro, which is the best compatible app for DTNO.1 smartwatches. Since the app is fully self-developed, DTNO.1 can provide customers with an in-depth app customization service based on Wearpro. Recently, DTNO.1 released a new version of Wearpro with a brand new UI design and numerous great features. You can download it from the app store and check it out.

Furthermore, DTNO.1 has exceptional production capacity, boasting three intelligent factories that enable the company to produce over one million smartwatches per month.

What DTNO.1 can do is exactly what a smartwatch manufacturer that S company was looking for. Soon after Aday reported this to S company, they decided to cooperate with DTNO.1 to take over the smartwatch market in Spain as soon as possible.

What we have served them

Until May of this year, DTNO.1 has been serving S Company as their supplier for 4 years. Looking back to the journey we’ve been through together, DTNO.1 has designed 21 models of smartwatches for S company and has provided updates for their custom app 6 times. Now, S Company has one of the top smartwatch brands, taking up more than 20% of the smartwatch market share in Spain.

DTNO.1 and S Company have become staunch supporters of each other and will sustain their strategic partnership for as long as possible. The CEO of S Company sent DTNO.1 a video message, which was played during the 2022 annual ceremony prior to the 2023 spring festival. In the video, he spoke highly of the services provided by DTNO.1 as a reliable smartwatch manufacturer, congratulated DTNO.1 on acquiring the leading position in the smartwatch manufacturing industry, and expressed his anticipation for future cooperation.

There is no doubt that the story between DTNO.1 and S Company will continue. DTNO.1 always welcomes new business customers with open arms to establish strategic partnerships that will help both parties further grow.
