Final-year Economics and Business Management student at SMU, Nicolas Han co-founded bespoke timepiece label Schaffen as an online start-up with his brother Jonathan Han. Schaffen retails watches that are custom-built to suit different tastes, lifestyles and preferences. A fourth-year medical student at NUS, Jonathan said it all began when he failed to find a watch he fancied. Jonathan sounded Nicholas out on the idea of starting a business selling affordable and good quality watches where customers get to choose their own dial, hands, strap as well as inscriptions on the dial and case back. Nicholas says he was initially sceptical of the idea. But he was more than game to help Jonathan explore it.
