A typical US business buyer pays a median of $1.15 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.82 at volume, on a typical 30-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point, not a binding quote. Your spec and quantity set the final price.

What moves the price
For stopwatch, the drivers are sensor type, water resistance, display type, battery life, strap or clip style, bluetooth or ANT+ connectivity, countdown interval, display format — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
Real wholesale quotes for custom digital stopwatches cluster around about US$0.85-1.00 at 400-500 MOQ and about US$1.25-1.85 at 1,000 MOQ on Chinese B2B listings, with higher-feature models quoted at US$3.88-8.00+ and premium mechanical/brand-name units much higher. The main cost drivers are display/functions (lap memory, alarm, waterproofing), casing and button quality, and logo/custom-print method; for US-facing buying, the most realistic routes are Chinese factory-direct marketplaces and import brokers, while domestic sports wholesalers usually sell branded stock at materially higher unit prices.
