Watch Safe
The Public Registry for Luxury Watches
Last updated September 2, 2026
Overview
Watch Safe is an independent public registry for luxury watches, providing authentication records, ownership history, and blockchain-anchored certificates. It was founded in Miami in 2022 by Nicholas Azcuy, a watch enthusiast from a Syrian family of watchmakers. The platform allows anyone to verify a watch's authenticity and registration, while owners control access to detailed records.
History
Watch Safe began in Miami in 2022. Founder Nicholas Azcuy, who comes from a Syrian family of watchmakers, was inspired by the need for a dependable record for luxury watches after seeing the market go crazy and hearing horror stories. He also drew inspiration from blockchain technology, but realized a token alone was insufficient; the watch needed an actual history. Thus, Watch Safe was built as a registry that keeps inspection and ownership records.
