Patriotically Supportive Timepieces

Minuteman Watches Are Made in America and Supports Veterans

— February 26, 2013 — Fashion
Minuteman Watches are a sophisticated way to show support for American troops because the trendy tickers help by providing funds for war veterans. The watches are available in two color choices including olive green and black, and are styled to be similar in nature to NATO-commissioned pieces.

Minuteman Watches are able to be submerged up to 200m and are made to last even the toughest of lifestyles. When it comes to charitable products, it can mean buying something that is covered in logos or from a company that has shifty practices regarding how the funds raised are being used. Minuteman Watches, however, are simple, understated, made in the USA and a chic way to give back.
Trend Themes
1. Made in the USA - There is the opportunity for companies to enter the timepiece industry by offering products that are made in the same country as their target market, like Minuteman Watches which supports veterans.
2. Charitable Products - There is an opportunity to create simple, understated, and stylish products that support important causes like supporting war veterans.
3. Trendy Philanthropy - There is a trend of young consumers wanting to purchase products that support important causes, particularly those that give back to veterans.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion - Fashion brands that focus on producing products that give back, like Minuteman Watches, may be able to capture an emerging market of young consumers who prioritize philanthropy.
2. Timepiece Manufacturing - Timepiece manufacturers that produce their products in the same country as their target market, while simultaneously giving back, could appeal to consumers looking for a quality product that also supports a good cause.
3. Veteran Support Services - Philanthropic companies, like Minuteman Watches, may inspire similar ideas by providing a platform to launch other products that support veterans or by investing in veteran support services.
