Indeed, Breitling has entered into a partnership with BitPay, one of the world’s largest providers of cryptocurrency payment services, to allow customers to purchase its wristwatches and straps using crypto, the payment provider announced on June 28.

In other words, customers will be able to use these digital currencies to purchase any of the watches on Breitling’s website, where the prices range between $3,300 for the Endurance Pro watch and $53,560 for the high-end Premier B21 Chronograph Tourbillion 42 Bentley. This means that, at press time, the latter was worth over 2.5 BTC, as Bitcoin traded at $20,797, up 0.33% on the day, but down 3.32% across the previous seven days, as per CoinMarketCap data. Luxury watchmakers fancy crypto It is worth noting that Breitling is not the first luxury watchmaker to allow crypto purchases. In fact, Finbold reported in mid-May on Tag Heuer announcing the rollout of crypto payments for all online purchases on its United States website. In mid-June, the Swiss watchmaker also introduced a new feature for its Connected Calibre E4 smartwatch, which turns it into a non-fungible token (NFT) viewer for customers to show off their digital art collections with verified proof of ownership. Finally, another luxury Swiss watchmaker, Hublot, has followed suit, announcing on June 21 the launch of 200 limited-edition luxury watches that customers can buy online with select cryptocurrencies, also through BitPay.
Fools, Only a dumb country or company would accept Bitcoin crypto for payments. That stuff is extremely volatile. Imagine accepting Bitcoin at its all-time high of $67,000 for something, but now it's only worth $19,000. What happens now....all those companies and transactions become insolvent, bankrupt? Breitling and its watches...are only worn by dumbfuck type of guys anyways.
Fools are those who think Swiss Watchmakers are going to hold on to their Bitcoins beyond the time it takes to complete the transaction.
good to know. i havnt worn one in over 20 years. maybe more men who wear jewelry of any kind are suspect.
What did you make in the market today, SunTrader? Enough to buy a Big Mac, Whole Alaskan King Salmon, Mortgage payment, House, Speaking of watches. I'm a watch guy, myself. I want this beauty, Blancpain Carrousel Villeret Moonphase, 6622L-3631-55b I just need $95,000 to magically appear somewhere,
