Optimedia will take on the media planning and buying duties for watch retailer City Chain, which has over 200 outlets across the Far East and Southeast Asia. Similarly, Hong Kong-based optical retail network Optical 88 has more than 200 shops across Macau, Guangzhou, Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia.

It is believed that the incumbent for both accounts is Maxus.
