The article has two sources: a PR piece, which by definition fails WP:ORGIND, and a "Retailer Profile" interview with a watch industry trade publication of unknown reliability, but which probably also fails WP:ORGIND. I spent over an hour looking for sources to satisfy WP:NCORP in Google Books and Google News archive. I searched NewsBank's newspaper archives. I even searched in a list of wrist watch blogs, which would be considered generally unreliable, just to see if anybody had reviewed one of this company's products. I used the current name and their two previous names in all my searches. I found absolutely no non-trivial coverage in any reliable source. AnAbandonedMall ( talk) 05:47, 12 August 2023 (UTC)

- Delete. I found a singular source on my own search, [1], which I doubt has a snowball's chance in hell of being compliant with any WP:NCORP policy. I think the nominator sums it up well here. — Sirdog ( talk) 06:06, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
