COGITO’s Growing Retail Footprint Spreads to the Skies and Top Retail Outlets

We are proud to be selected as the first smart-enabled watch to appear in the pages of Singapore Airlines and Lufthansa inflight KrisShop catalogues. Beginning in September, travelers will find the Black Onyx and Gun Metal COGITO CLASSIC showcased in front of them at 30,000 feet.

KrisShop is recognized for having a stringent selection process- Singapore Airline guests know they are always getting the best quality merchandise.

The COGITO CLASSIC will be particularly appealing to travelers who want the classic look of a precision-crafted timepiece.  Seamlessly uniting fashion with the tech users need to manage their communications on the go. With our dual time function, we keep users in sync with their home and host countries.

Unlike other smartwatches, COGITO never needs to be charged and can be worn in the shower and other wet situations where you can’t use your phone.

COGITO is also expanding in the USA market; partnering with Brookstone, a retailer that offers products distinctive in quality and function. A great store to find gifts for those hard-to-buy-for men and women in your life.  Shoppers can now experience COGITO first hand at over 40 different Brookstone locations, or nationwide at brookstone.com. Our smartwatches are perfect for the style-conscious consumer, as fashion has always been a focus for us.

When paired with the app, you are able to manage call notifications, social media and message alerts (Facebook, Twitter, Skype, WhatsApp, QQ, WeChat), music control, camera activation and more- all from your wrist! Never worry again about your phone blaring awkwardly at a meeting- mute it easily from your smartwatch.

Christmas is for children and Hong Kong is laying out the treats. Kids Dailies provides online magazines for reading fun and education, Dymocks Sai Kung with a wealth of books, Treasure Island Gifts with the best toys and Edible Arrangements providing healthy and delicious treats.

 Support Reading Skills With Kids Dailies

Learning to read is a big task. In English, readers memorise 26 different letters and each of the sounds they make. Learning a graphic language like Chinese requires memorising hundreds of characters. Some children find this easier than others, especially when dyslexia gets in the way.

Kids Dailies support reading skills for kids from preschool all the way up to age 12, with a dyslexic-friendly font to make reading easier. Whether your child is learning English or Chinese, Daily5, Daily7, or Daily10 are tailor-made for kids to help them to get the practice they need.

Dymocks & "Love Rosie" Warm Hearts This Christmas

“I’ve learned that home isn’t a place, it’s a feeling.” ― Cecelia Ahern

At Dymocks Sai Kung, we feel the same way. Especially at Christmas time, it’s all about the feeling. That’s why we have a Booklover card promotion on Cecelia Ahern’s “Love, Rosie,” based on her 2004 “Where Rainbows End.”  

Now through December 25, Booklovers who purchase the “Love, Rosie” book also receive a movie ticket (whilst supplies last). The film, starring Lily Collins and Sam Clafin, releases December 25. Both the book and the movie will warm your heart this Christmas season.

Happy Holidays and warmest regards from Dymocks Sai Kung!

Flavours of Asia Helps You Find the Perfect Wine Match for Every Meal!

We pride ourselves on discovering the most unique wines of the highest quality. With the release of our new iPad app, Flavours of Asia, anyone can receive individual expertise on how to serve the right wine for your meal.



If pairing wines with food unsuccessfully, it can create an awkward flavor combination. However, wine also has the ability to transform a meal into something spectacular.

The purpose of Flavours of Asia is to simplify the process of pairing these two very different tastes and create a delicious experience that anyone can enjoy.

The Flavours of Asia app is very easy to use. Simply search by food type or wine type and find a list of delectable matches suggested by our most knowledgeable wine experts. Descriptions and ratings of wine are also included to ensure that the wine you pick will satisfy your individual preferences.

IPhones and iPads may also be used to mimic percussion, stringed and many other instruments. You will be given all the necessary tools to turn your mobile device into a musical interface.

Performances of the ensemble have received wide spread media coverage, with appearances from CNN's global website, to TVB evening news, to new media portal Rhizome. The group, led by composer-artist Samson Young, was featured at the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Architectural Biennale, as well as the 2010 Hong Kong Art Fair.

About Samson Young

Samson Young (b.1979) is one of Hong Kong’s most sought-after composers today. With formal training in music composition, an eye for visuals and a keen interest in emergent technologies, Young has been known to combine his diverse expertise into uniquely intermedia experiences. His works are fundamentally informed by an engagement with new cultural-technological paradigms, yet deeply grounded in the classical musical tradition.

In 2007, Young became the first from Hong Kong to receive the Bloomberg Emerging Artist Award with his audio-visual project “the Happiest Hour.” In 2009, CNN’s global portal CNNgo named him one of the top “20 people to watch in Hong Kong.” Young was Hong Kong Sinfonietta’s artist associate in the 2008/09 season, and since then he has maintained a close relationship with the orchestra, working in the capacity of composer-director in a range of multimedia productions. These include: Electric Kinderszenen, a piano-installation project featuring Colleen Lee; Box of Revelation, a multimedia rendition of Messiaen’s Quatuor pour la fin du temps; and the popular “Know-Your” concert series.
