NFTs have been the focus of media attention lately, primarily for the considerable amounts of money involved in digital art exchanges. Therefore, NFTs seem to be the ultimate investment destination in 2022. Recently, even Justin Bieber bought NFTs, namely two Bored Ape Yacht Club portraits.
What, then, are these NFTs that everyone is talking about? Simply put, an NFT - Non-Fungible Token - is a digital certificate, which guarantees the uniqueness and authenticity of digital or physical work, thanks to the use of the blockchain, the technology behind cryptocurrencies. It's important to note that NFT doesn't just refer to works of art.
Richape Mille, A New Collection of NFTs for Watch Enthusiasts
By combining one of the most classic safe-haven assets, the luxury watch, and an investment of the present and future, NFTs, comes the idea of a collection based on a strong focused community. The Metalus collection, by Richape Mille, includes 5,711 NFTs, featuring finely handcrafted renditions of the 100 most iconic watches of the world. Richape Mille's goal is to create a marketplace in the Metaverse, which will become a hub for the community of watch lovers.
Metalus is a homage to the name of Patek Philippe's cult watch, Nautilus. The 5,711 NFTs, on the Ethereum platform, reproduce the 100 most famous watches in watchmaking history, featuring four degrees of rarity: Rare, Super Rare, Grail, and Piece Unique. Purchase is expected to be possible from the end of February 2022.
The Launch of the Richape Mille NFTs
Taking part in the launch phase will be uniquely beneficial. Richape Mille will soon open a Discord channel, with free and open access, open to everyone who wants to be part of the event. By posting content and keeping the community active, you will have the chance to be selected among the lucky ones who will have access to the whitelist.
Whitelisted users will have the opportunity to purchase NFTs at launch price, up to 2 per wallet. After the launch, the remaining NFTs will be on sale on the open market at very different prices.
The NFTs of the Metalus series are only the first step of a broader project.
The Community, a Long-Term Project
The Richape Mille project involves the development of a marketplace in the Metaverse, the ChronoMETA. ChronoMETA aims to become the Web3 reference point for watches, with a dedicated marketplace. Thanks to payments in cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology, on ChronoMETA, it will be possible to trade physical and virtual watches. The community also provides a series of support activities dedicated to watch lovers, such as special events, both in the Metaverse and the physical world. Moreover, the great Maisons of watchmaking will dedicate exclusive perks, for those who own an NFT of the Metalus series.
Richape Mille will also give away a personalized hoodie with its signature logo, along with an NFT version, to those who purchase NFTs from the Metalus collection.
To top it off, a real, authentic, platinum Rolex Daytona with box and papers will be lucky drawn among those who attend the launch event and secure one or more NFTs.
Finally, register on the Discord Channel
The Discord channel dedicated to the launch of Metalus will be opened soon. You can pre-register on the Richape Mille website at richapemille.com right now, to be notified immediately when the channel will be open.
