HG
is a humble watch corner founded (in 2000) & managed by a watch lover, Shawn TAN for fellow collectors. Operating from
SINGAPORE & like
Singapore, HG is a modest yet promising watch corner with so much to offer. A
qualified accountant & international tax consultant by training, Shawn is a
Fellow of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (FCCA / ACCA),
United Kingdom & the Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants (ISCA).
An avid collector with penchant for
all things vintage, especially
rare
vintage watches & clocks, Shawn started collecting at the
age of 18 & this hobby quickly evolved into a significant alternative investment
& eventually in year 2000 he left his tax consulting profession & turned this
serious hobby into a business.
The
main reason for setting up HG is to bring special items to fellow
collectors/dealers alike & at the same time keep our hobby going. Some of the
watches you see in our website originated from our private collection whilst
others have been sourced & selected with much effort & care. As collectors at heart, each item in our showcase has been handpicked, examined
& curated as if it was for our own collection. You will notice that all our
watches are of fine condition that every watch collector would ask for. Call us
perfectionists if you like but we take pride in bringing the great smile onto
your face when you receive our items. Our experience, expertise, excellent
service & professionalism
will also ensure that your shopping experience with us is a pleasant one, each &
every time, simply because WE ARE
COLLECTORS TOO !!
Buy from us with confidence as HG is a legally registered
business entity
& a licensed vintage watch dealer registered with the Singapore
authorities. We are also an ebay POWERSELLER with strong
positive feedback. Our experience in worldwide shipments ensures that you
receive the items you ordered safely, fast & cost effectively.
