Welcoming Kylian Mbappé As An Investor Of Wristcheck
We’re excited to announce that global football phenom Kylian Mbappé has joined Wristcheck as an investor.
The news is out – we couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome Kylian Mbappé to the Wristcheck family. As a football icon and a passionate watch collector, Mbappé represents everything we stand for – his rise from a young talent to one of the most influential athletes in the world has been nothing short of inspiring. On and off the field, Kylian’s influence has been monumental, and we’re proud to have him alongside us as we continue to build the watch world of tomorrow.
AN ICON ON AND OFF THE FIELD
Kylian Mbappé is, without a doubt, one of the most exciting and influential athletes of our generation. With seven Ligue 1 titles, a World Cup victory in 2018, and a Golden Boot at the 2022 World Cup, he’s proven himself as a powerhouse on the football field. But his influence doesn’t stop there.
Off the pitch, Mbappé has been instrumental in bridging the worlds of sport and watches for the next generation – something we’re immensely grateful for. A Hublot ambassador since 2018, his passion for watches is attested through a vast collection that mirrors his equally bold play.
I’m thrilled to join Wristcheck as an investor through Coalition Capital. As a Hublot Ambassador and someone passionate about watches and innovation, I see Wristcheck as a platform that truly understands the next generation of collectors. They’re reshaping the watch industry with a forward-thinking approach that blends technology, transparency, and creativity. Together with the management and this incredible group of partners, I’m excited to help Wristcheck define the future of watch collecting and make it more accessible and inspiring for everyone.
Given our shared vision for the future of the watch industry, this partnership was a perfect fit.
A GAME-CHANGER FOR THE INDUSTRY
Since we launched our platform in 2020, Wristcheck has quickly become the ultimate destination for all things watches, with a mission to revolutionize the way people buy, sell, and learn about them.
Built by collectors, for collectors, our holistic ecosystem is the first to be tailored specifically to meet the needs of tech-savvy, digital-forward Gen-Z collectors. We’re bringing transparency, trust, and accessibility to a secondary market that’s traditionally been anything but.
Today, we’re proud to be trusted by leading collectors worldwide, and to be backed by such an incredible group of industry trailblazers like Jay-Z and now, Kylian Mbappé.
We’re honored to welcome Kylian Mbappé to the Wristcheck family. As one of the most inspiring athletes of our time, I’m incredibly excited about the phenomenal impact he will bring to the industry through his passion for watches. Wristcheck is dedicated to bringing watches to the forefront of pop culture, and with Mbappé’s support, we can further accelerate this mission together.
With the support of our incredible investors, we’ll continue our journey of shaping the watch world of tomorrow: a tech-driven universe powered by a commitment to transparency, inclusivity, and at its very core, a genuine love for watches.
