Jakarta, Pintu News – A company specializing in the design of smartwatch displays sold through non-fungible tokens (NFTs) has filed a lawsuit against luxury goods giant LVMH, alleging patent infringement.
Watch Skins Corporation, as the plaintiff, filed its complaint with a federal court in Texas on March 10, accusing LVMH of unlawfully using its patented NFT display technology.
The company claims to have several patents for systems that allow smartwatches to display verified NFT artwork.
Watch Skins alleges that LVMH-owned watch brand TAG Heuer, as well as several other products under the conglomerate, have misused its NFT technology.

The company refers to three main patents: one for the verification of NFT ownership before display, a second for the process of authenticating NFTs through a blockchain wallet, and a third for the generation and display of custom watch designs based on NFT ownership.
The lawsuit also alleges that TAG Heuer actively encouraged customers to infringe the patent by providing guidance on how to use their NFT display feature.
In the lawsuit documents, it is mentioned that TAG Heuer’s smartwatch “connects to the user’s crypto wallet to guarantee authenticity” before allowing NFTs to be displayed.
As a multinational holding company, LVMH owns an extensive portfolio of renowned luxury brands, including Louis Vuitton, Givenchy, Tiffany, Christian Dior, and Hennessy.
TAG Heuer has previously been prominent in the integration of NFTs as part of LVMH’s strategy to expand their presence in the world of digital assets.
Watch Skins demands a jury trial, financial compensation for lost profits and royalties, as well as a court order to prohibit LVMH from using the patented technology.
The company first introduced its blockchain-powered NFT-based smartwatch display market at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in 2020.
Through a mobile app, Watch Skins allows users to purchase officially licensed smartwatch faces from various brands.
According to Crypto News (13/3/25), NFT trading volumes reportedly plummeted by more than 60% in February, continuing a downward trend that dates back to early 2024.
According to DappRadar analyst Sara Gherghelas, the trading volume of NFTs reached $1.36 billion in December, but fell 26% in January before slumping another 50% in February.
