Abstract
Electronic watch faces can be created in customized and associated with a block chain system. More particularly, the block chain's system uses non-fungible tokens which are in general unique, to represent the ownership of a specific watch face. Users own the token and can display the watch face only while they own the token. After selling the watch face, the token is changed to represent the new owner of the token and the original owner can no longer display the watch face at that point.
Claims20
An electronic watch system, comprising:
- a watch device, having a housing, a display face, and a memory storing information for displaying on the display face;
- and
- a processor, storing a cryptographic code associated with the information for displaying on the watch face,
- and the processor controlling the information to be displayed on the watch face when the cryptographic code associated with the information for displaying on the watch face indicates that the information for displaying on the watch face is authorized to be displayed on the watch face, and
- and the processor controlling the information and not allowing the information to be displayed on the watch face if the cryptographic code associated with the information for displaying on the watch face indicates that the information for displaying on the watch face is not authorized to be displayed on the watch face.
A method of displaying a watch face on an electronic watch, comprising:
- in an electronic watch device, having a housing, a display face, and a memory, enabling information from the memory to be displayed on the display face, the display face showing a current time, and an arrangement based on the information from the memory;
- storing a cryptographic code associated with the information for displaying on the watch face, and
- using the cryptographic code for controlling the information to be displayed on the watch face, by 1) when the cryptographic code associated with the information for displaying on the watch face indicates that the information for displaying on the watch face is authorized to be displayed on the watch face, displaying the information from the memory on the watch face, and 2) when the cryptographic code associated with the information for displaying on the watch face indicates that the information for displaying on the watch face is not authorized to be displayed on the watch face, then not displaying the information from the memory on the watch face.
