Selco Partners with Père De Temps
Selco, a supplier of fine watches, has entered into a representative agreement to sell and distribute Père de Temps' watch line, a luxury brand of automatic mechanical watches with European design, in the ad specialty marketplace.
Mark Abels, president of Selco, said, “The addition of these beautifully crafted watches to our line increases the range of product that our clients can select from us while remaining within our scope of expertise. The automatic self- winding mechanical timepieces further adds to our company’s retail edge.”
Père de Temps (translated from French to mean “Father Time”) launched the watch line in 2007 at the Motivation Show in Chicago to rave reviews. To solidify its retail presence, Père de Temps later launched the brand in 2008 at select Bloomingdales and Zales retail stores. The mechanical watch line consists of 18 hand-assembled automatic jeweled watches for men and women, priced from $395.00 to $495.00. Père de Temps is a contemporary collection most identifiable by its “exhibition” see-through-dials in which its complicated inner workings can be viewed. All styles can be customized.
