Shanghai (上海) is a watch brand produced by the Shanghai Watch Factory. It is one of the oldest Chinese watch brands, and Shanghai watches have been in continuous production since 1958 (if a brief stint as "Shanghai 2000" is included). Domestically, the brand DongFeng was used for the early watches.
