Introducing the Limited-Edition Vanguard Encrypto
The Franck Muller Vanguard Encrypto, hailed as the world's first functional bitcoin watch, represents a groundbreaking fusion of luxury timekeeping and cryptocurrency technology. This exclusive limited-edition release redefines wearable finance by integrating a secure Bitcoin wallet into its design.
Developed in collaboration with Regal Assets, a premier cryptocurrency trading platform, the watch features:
- Bitcoin logo prominently displayed
- QR code of Bitcoin's Genesis Block
- Laser-etched public wallet address QR code on the dial
Key components enabling its functionality:
- Public Wallet QR Code: Scan to deposit BTC or check balances
- Sealed USB Drive: Stores private keys in ultra-secure deep cold storage
How the Bitcoin Watch Technology Works
The Vanguard Encrypto utilizes an advanced offline storage system inspired by best practices in cryptocurrency security:
Two-Part Security Architecture
- Public Address (visible on dial QR)
- Private Key (stored offline on included USB)
This "deep cold storage" approach mirrors methods preferred by long-term Bitcoin holders:
✅ True Random Number Generation (TRNG)
✅ Non-deterministic paper wallet-style storage
✅ Eliminates single-point-of-failure risks of digital wallets

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I send Bitcoin directly from the watch?
No—the dial QR displays your public address only for deposits. Transactions require accessing your private key via the secure USB.
How secure is the cold storage USB?
Each USB is physically sealed during manufacturing, with tamper-evident packaging. Regal Assets' storage system holds ISO 27001 certification for information security.
What happens if I lose the watch?
Your Bitcoin remains secure as long as the private key USB is safe. The watch itself only contains your public address—like losing a business card rather than a wallet.
