A humble yet significant beginning: Workers Jiang Zhengyin, Sun Wenjun, Wang Cimin, and Zhang Shuwen, armed with a modest budget of 100 yuan allocated by the bureau, worked tirelessly in a small room with four rudimentary instruments.
Finally, on March 24, 1955, at 5:45 AM, they successfully developed the 'Five-Star Watch,' marking the commencement of a new chapter in the domestic watchmaking industry.
April 23rd, 1955
With the birth of China's first commercialized wristwatch, the 'May 1st Watch,' Tianjin Watch Factory relocated to its inaugural facility in the Hongqiao district. This move laid a solid foundation for the development of the Chinese watchmaking industry.
September, 1966
After the introduction of the 'May 1st Watch,' the technical experts at Tianjin Watch Factory gradually realized that in order to expand internationally, they needed to design and produce new products of their own.
The factory director personally led a team to form a trial production group. They meticulously studied vast amounts of domestic and international materials, disassembled hundreds of sample watches, and conducted technical surveys at major watch factories and stores across the country. This effort resulted in the creation of the distinctive 'Dongfeng' watch.
It represented an upgraded version of the 'May 1st Watch' and stood as China's first independently designed and manufactured timepiece. This marked a turning point in the technological and production development of the enterprise.
