JD has currently enabled 60 Xinyu offline stores to offer after-sales service and will expand the cooperation to more stores in the future.

Customers will also receive in-house watch repair and maintenance services as part of the programme.

Xinyu Group chairman Yu Ping Cheung said: “Xinyu’s international watch brands have been warmly received by Chinese consumers. With a unique ability to offer innovative combinations of online and offline shopping experiences, JD.com is the perfect partner for us to provide even more of our exceptional timepieces across China.

“We look forward to continuing deepening our cooperation with them in the years to come.”

Last week, British bespoke menswear brand Gieves & Hawkes has partnered with JD.com to open an official flagship store on the e-commerce platform.
