Casio will release a virtual G-SHOCK watch in the form of the NFT

Japanese electronics maker Casio has partnered with Etherium scaling solution developer Polygon to bring an NFT collection of G-SHOCK watches to the network.

The plan is to issue 15,000 non-interchangeable tokens with various G-SHOCK models, both existing and created exclusively in virtualized form. The sales launch is set for September 23, but only Casio customers who register on the company’s website will have access to NFT purchases. The public sale of tokens will begin on September 26.

Casio invites community members to suggest their own watch designs, and to vote for their favorite versions of the virtual models.

“We chose Polygon because the solution provides near-instant transactions that make the process of releasing and managing NFTs smooth, convenient and carbon neutral. Our virtual G-SHOCKs must be accessible, innovative and inclusive, which means the user experience must be simple and straightforward
