The official website isn't great and there's no way to order from it directly. But this is the website I got mine from, which only has a limited selection:

The Beihai seems like a popular model for people to import

Wow I love watches. Been trying to find a high end watch manufacturer from China for quite some time.

Do you know of any North American websites to buy this watch? Or can you link the original website?

You guys should be buying luxury Chinese watches instead, like the Playing Dragon and Phoenix from Beijing Watch Factory!

I'm in Canada and imported it after paying a hefty duty but figured it was worth it. And I was mistaken. I didn't order my watch from that Bartels site. I ordered it from a place called Houjon, which doesn't seem to exist anymore. You could try that Bartels site; they seem reputable, though beware of the import duty. I've heard other people ordering these watches from eBay but I don't know enough about the site to find trustworthy sources.

This is Beijing's official website though my browser (Firefox) has trouble seeing all the pictures come up without clicking on them (it's fine with Microsoft Edge):

I am using Firefox ESR 52.8.1 with NoScript.
No problem seeing all the pictures without clicking on them.
