„Just because we may have invented the watch business doesn't mean we're willing to stop there“René Beyer, Beyer Chronometrie (Zurich, Switzerland)
Back to the Future
1
As the world's oldest watch store, Beyer Chronometrie located in Zurich Switzerland, we believe in the new and the unknown as much as we believe in tradition and craftsmanship. That's why - 262 years after our founding - we are once again entering new territory by presenting our first NFT collection.

In collaboration with FTSY8 Fictional Studios we have created a selection of collectible NFT watches.

The Time Warp Collection explores the intersection between traditional watchmaking and the aesthetics of technology, gaming, fashion, and streetwear.

Owners Circle
Of course, owning an NFT of the Time Warp Collection comes with perks such as exclusive NFT presales and money-can't-buy experiences within the Swiss Watch Industry.
We are thrilled about this novel opportunity to connect a new community with the world of Beyer.
