KYBOE is a Dutch upscale fashion brand founded in 2007 by Dutchman Dick Sijmons, which sells watches with oversized dials and bright colors.[1] In 2015, the company set up a U.S. based office in Boca Raton, Florida, when American investors Bell and Roos acquired a stake in the company.[2]
Unless efforts and investments it was not succesfull.
In 2017 Dick Sijmons went back to The Hague and started his New Compagny : Symons & Panchenko and added his brand KYBOE in 2019, after recovering his brandname and designs.
Dick Sijmons began making bright, colorful and fashionable plastic watches in 2007, under the name Kyboe.[3] After seeing a positive response within the Netherlands, they expanded the offerings to include more durable stainless steel cases.[4] By 2008 the plastic watches were phased out entirely.[5]
KYBOE started selling in the US in 2016.[6]
American M. Bell joined KYBOE in 2014 as a distributor, and in 2015 became a partner. Bell brought business partner Joseph Roos, an expert in retail and finance, in to the partnership.
