The first joint watch between OMEGA and Swatch was officially launched this morning (26th).

The sales of the two major brands outperformed the epidemic, setting off a boom all over the world.

In the early hours of this morning, nearly 100 people sat on the ground outside Langham Place, Mong Kok, and even lined up all night to "hit the ground floor", just to get ahead in the morning. During the period, police officers came to the scene to understand.

Some of the top citizens said they bought watches for their own use, and they were not worried about contracting the virus or violating epidemic prevention regulations.

At about 1 am, the reporter of "Hong Kong 01" went to Langham Place to inspect.

As far as what was seen at the scene, Swatch posted a notice outside the mall, stating that 72 chips would be dispatched from 8:30 this morning, but it was visually estimated that nearly 100 people were queuing outside the mall at that time, some people were sitting on the ground, and some people were "hitting the floor" to sleep. Most of them are South Asians and seniors, with only a small number of young people.

During the period, some police officers came to the scene to understand and reminded those present to keep their distance and take photos for evidence, but no tickets were issued for this.

Mr. Feng, who was at the top of the line, said that he was there at around 5:00 p.m. yesterday (25th).

When asked if he would be worried about contracting the virus due to queuing, he said he was not too worried, "Except for drinking water and eating less biscuits, I will not remove the mask‥‥‥ There are more or less risks, but I have all the vaccines, pay attention to hygiene Hey!" As for whether he would be worried about violating the epidemic prevention regulations, he said: "Bury yourself and keep social distance!"

Ms. Huang started queuing around 8 pm. She said she would buy two watches for her own use, and said with a smile, "It should be sold out! But you can see that there are some (queuing people) who are not for her own use!" She didn't either. Worrying about breaking the law because of this, "Sit and go, I have to go out, but it's not that bad, I'm the first in line."
