From the CEO’s Desk
Lauren Favre, the CEO of A. Favre & Fils commented they have built the timepiece with an intention to offer something useful to the crypto community. He further added that they did not develop something to spend the money on.
As per the announcement, one timepiece will cost about CHF100,000 to CHF150,000 (equivalent to $102,000 – $153,000). The price varies depending upon the variant such as metal, gold, etc.
The firm further reveals that the timepiece will provide ultimate privacy protection and in-data security. The luxury watch manufacturer is all set to release its first prototype in the second quarter of this year.
During an interview with a Swiss news outlet, Lauren said that one has to keep adding relevant features that improve the design. He concluded by saying that its a bit like figuring out the future of steam engines in an era of electric engines.
Do you think the launch of crypto wallet watch will bring a change in the crypto-community and luxury watchmaking firms?
