We already live in a hybrid physical-digital world, and more and more stuff is migrating to digital.
Now that it's possible to securely verify ownership of assets in digital form, that trend will continue apace. It'll accelerate too on the back of a demographic wave, as a younger generation of digital natives takes over from those of us who hired people to type our graduate theses thirty years ago haha.
The one thing about watches though. They're among the things that revolt against the present and future by being deliberately and self-consciously grounded in the past. And that past was resolutely analogue. In part this is down to a yearning for stuff as it was, even if it is an impression of the past seen through rose-tinted glasses. So while digital ownership might afford satisfaction, it doesn't (yet) offer the comforts of tactile experience.
This being the case, I guess that we'll continue to see the two worlds co-exist for a while. That is, of course, until we ourselves migrate completely to a virtual world wherein we can experience all of the things that digital hasn't eaten up yet.

You can still get a smart watch for retail in the real world.
I have studied NFT a little bit.

And I am terribly sorry, I cannot find a meaningful approach to this topic for me. I like to feel my watch on my wrist and want to live in the "real" world as long as possible. All the best for your project Thomas
I fully agree with you.

I start to … hate (a strong word I know) … all these artificial hype developments. Especially including this Patek/Tiffany/LVMH-craziness. By the way: Elon Musk says we are already living in the matrix… 😎

You are absolutely right about the current world we are living in now. Nothing seems to be real anymore. I don't expect anything to go big right now but maybe just one day, people get to see the messages behind these arts. Had to use some of the most icon...
