E. Gluck Acquires Controlling Interest in Withit

Global watch manufacturer E. Gluck Corp. announced it has formed a strategic partnership with Withit, a Las Vegas–based wearable technology accessories designer and manufacturer. The controlling-interest acquisition will enable E. Gluck to expand its market by offering both traditional timepieces and wearable tech accessories.

“In Withit, E. Gluck Corporation has found a younger version of itself—a company driven and guided by its core values and a relentless dedication to customer satisfaction,” said Bobbie Weichselbaum, CEO of E. Gluck, in a statement. “We are excited on a corporate level to be joining forces and even more so, to having these incredible individuals joining our EGC family.”

Withit was founded in 2004 and has since seen its products sold in over 8,500 U.S. retail stores. In addition to its wearable technology devices, it is also a supplier of reading accessories such as reading lights and magnifiers.

“We are extremely excited to have this opportunity to continue our growth trajectory with E. Gluck,” said Withit CEO David Nelson in a statement. “Not only are our companies complementary from a pure business perspective, but E. Gluck and Withit share core values and culture that make this combination special.”
