Mr. Philipp Plein’s Quote
“Remarking on its move into the Swiss made luxury watch market, Philipp Plein states: “The DNA of the Philipp Plein brand has always been about uncompromised luxury and exclusivity. I feel that bringing my brand in the Swiss made, luxury watch segment is a move consistent with the positioning of
the brand Philipp Plein and of its products. I am, by nature, an innovator and a disruptor who believes in his dreams until they come true and, in my case, this attitude proved to be successful. In several cases, by taking risks and doing things outside the box, I managed to interrupt industries and start new successful ventures and markets. This is what I am trying to do here by creating an unprecedented connection between the watch making industry and the world of digital art.
Today we have accomplished the development of the First Timepiece where digital meets physical. I’m sure that the project will generate a lot of interest, and the live-stream in Decentraland happening today is an excellent way to reach out to the entire META & CRYPTO community. It’s exciting to see how the project will be received, and how it will pave the way for future innovations in luxury watch-making”.

From Switzerland to the World
Geneva is just the first step for the CRYPTO KING and CRYPTO QUEEN collections the journey will continue with more events after the Watches & Wonders exhibition to continue disrupting industry rules with a brand-new concept of watches combined with NFTs on a global scale. The next steps will be Monaco, Singapore, London, Paris, New York City and Las Vegas with a series of exclusive events across the globe.

Philipp Plein is known for his revolutionary approach to fashion, and this extends to his ability to create spectacular events that leave a lasting impression.
