Our first lifetime partner is Alain Delon. Through their sheer faith in us, they
have been truly instrumental to the success of AD Time.
When we began, we had a dream to rise as a renowned distributor, watchmaker and
retailer in the timepiece industry. Mr Alain Delon himself saw our dream,
believed in us and provided us with an opportunity to fulfil it.
With our deepest gratitude, we thank you for sharing with us a lifeline that has
enabled us to grow to global standards. We appreciate Alain Delon as a partner
for life.
“A lifetime partner has faith in you, supports you and grows together with you”

Bonia is another lifetime partner who has contributed significantly to our story
in time. This is a brand who has shown tremendous trust in us, by making us one
of their sole distributors and licensees.
When we first started building AD Time and Bonia, our brands were like young
children. Mr SS Chiang, the founder of Bonia, has always believed in our passion
and commitment. Together, we invested our life effort to feed, nurture, teach
and discipline them into greatly renowned and recognised brand names.
As we share the joy of our brands growing hand in hand, we are also incredibly
proud to be lifetime partners with a company like Bonia, who have shouldered all
our efforts together through all times.

Lifelong Leader
At the tender age of 19 years old, Mr YY Kwan began his career with Orient
watches. Since then, he has never once looked back with anything but gratitude
and appreciation for where life has taken him. This is his story of a lifetime.
“I come from humble beginnings. But I always believe that if you commit your
life and work with effort towards your passion, you will find success.
I still
remember when I first started my career in the timepiece industry. I would try
the hardest to be best at my job and my dedication earned the respect of my
boss. He gave me an opportunity to start my business in the timepiece industry.
And I took this opportunity and turned it into a lifetime success.
I learned
that it is a self-taught world in the timepiece industry. To be a successful
entrepreneur, you need to cultivate the initiative to self-educate by observing
people to improve your product knowledge.
I began AD Time in Malaysia during the
late 80s. Later on, I saved up enough to buy all the shares of the company. From
then on, together with my lifetime team, we have built AD Time from strength to
strength.
Today, I am glad to see AD Time’s presence throughout our nation and also in
neighbouring countries. We would love to grow even further to fulfil our vision
of 365 Life Moments for our lifetime partners. I truly look forward to see us
committed with more passion and more successes as we approach the global arena."
Progressing For Life
Building lifetime successes requires a lifetime team. At AD Time, we are a
family. As we cultivate lifetime partnerships, we are excited to see the changes
that we can contribute to our partners, our people, and also to our nation. We
work closely through every moment, being dependable and depending on each other
to accomplish great artistry in the timepiece industry.
Growing the AD Time brand name requires us to have continuous improvement in
knowledge, partnership, understanding and trust. We consistently stand together
to progress towards international standards. Through our core values, each and
everyone of us thoroughly believe in being there as a lifetime partner for our
partners and our lifetime team.
MB Lim, Executive Business Director
“We’re more than a team, we’re family… we’re always here for each other”
Franscine Low, Group Finance Director
“Great success and dreams are meant to be shared together”
Ally Abdullah, Corporate Communications Director
“Loyalty and love – these are the strengths that keep us going, every moment,
every day”
Francine Tham, Creative Director
“Success comes from our people and passion… it’s a remarkable journey”
future moments
a lifetime of opportunities
Ever since AD Time came to life, we have dreamt of building our own brand for
many years. It is our way of putting Malaysia on the map – through the
excellence of unique, sophisticated and artistic timepieces that we can design
and make. We have dedicated a lifetime of effort to our dream and we know the
best will be coming, very soon.
We look forward to a time where we would be able
to be there for 365 Life Moments together with our licensing partners,
distributors, retailers, corporate institutions, government institutions,
non-governmental organisations and the society around us. Standing beside them
by providing the best products, services and support as a lifetime partner, we
trust we will achieve global standards through our shared values.
It is also our
dream to have lifetime partnerships with our lifetime team, who have travelled
far with us since the beginning. We are blessed and thankful to have a lifetime
team with us who are sincere, committed, loyal, dynamic and passionate about
what we do. With continuous improvement in all aspects of our lives, we would
strive to move ahead together, so that we can achieve sophisticated improvement
and artistry within our industry.
By 2020, we will establish lifetime
partnerships in stages from Southeast Asia, Asia and to the rest of the world.
Our future moments will be shaped with lifetime partnerships and a renowned
brand that inspires confidence for everyone all over the world.
