About Us
Big Ben Watches is owned, operated & managed by Mary Aileen Oracion & Marc Andrei "MARCO" Villaflor. The business was created on May 31, 2005.
Aileen & Marco started working together in 2004 - not as business partners but as watch collectors. Their enthusiasm for the hobby led them to eventually become well-acquainted with a network of timepiece suppliers & specialists. Each has also collected an extensive number of valuable watches!
In 2005, Aileen & Marco quit their jobs & pursued business. They recognized the profitability of their hobby & pooled their assets to put up Big Ben Watches!
Big Ben Watches began marketing timepieces worldwide as "bigbenwatch" on eBay & later, as an independent e-Commerce entity through this website.
Aileen is an experienced creative marketing professional. She is also a graphic artist. Aileen is responsible for Big Ben's marketing, sales & customer support. |
Marco has extensive fieldwork experience in logistics, supplies canvassing / outsourcing. Marco is responsible for Big Ben's inventory, repairs/restoration & shipment. |
