Tag Heuer announces function that allows users to display their NFTs on the brand’s smartwatch
Tag Heuer continues to advance strategies in the crypto world, this time allowing users to display NFTs on the screen of their smartwatches via a connection to crypto wallets.
The new feature is being added to the Tag Heuer Connected Caliber E4 smartwatch. Additionally, functionality will be updated free of charge for smartwatch owners via Apple’s App Store and Google’s Play Store.
With the new feature, customers will be able to securely connect their crypto wallets, including Metamask and Ledger Live. The clock screen has three different ways to show the time while also displaying NFT artwork, working with all the collections on the ETH network.
Tag Heuer worked directly with collectors to perfect the new feature, with some collectors even lending their NFTs to the new feature launch campaign.
This is not Tag Heuer’s first step into the crypto world. Recently, the brand partnered with Bitpay to accept online cryptocurrency payments.
