Swatch was founded in 1983 by Ernst Thomke, Elmar Mock, and Jacques Müller. The brand was built in response to the ‘quartz crisis’ of the 1970s. The majority of the brand’s watches use precise and reliable quartz movements, ensuring that they are affordable and high-quality.
Swatch creates fun, colourful and budget-friendly timepieces in a huge variety of styles. There is a perfect Swatch model for everyone due to the brand’s large portfolio with a multitude of designs. SwatchPay models allow the wearer to make quick and easy contactless payments.
The technology does not require a power source and is compatible with both Visa and MasterCard. SwatchPay uses an encrypted token, meaning that no personal details are stored in the watch, enhancing data security. To set up SwatchPay, the wearer will need to set up a Curve account and activate their watch using an Android phone or in-store.
