It started with one strap.
Watch Try-On began with a simple wish: to see a new strap on your own watch before ordering it. No shop could show that, so we built a tool that could.
From Strap Finder to Watch Try-On
The first version was called Strap Finder: upload a photo of your watch, pick a strap, see the two together. Watch enthusiasts started using it, and then strap and watch retailers asked whether it could run on their own product pages, with their own catalog. That became Watch Try-On: the same idea, extended to the wrist, so a shopper sees a watch at its real size on their own arm.
Today it has rendered more than 50,000 try-ons and runs on the product pages of watch and strap retailers in Germany, the UAE, Hong Kong and Japan.
How we work
- Every product is prepared from the retailer's own photos and quality-checked before it is live.
- A product that cannot be rendered faithfully is held back rather than shown wrong.
- The free try-on on this site and the app stay available to enthusiasts; that is where it began.
Behind Watch Try-On
Watch Try-On is built and run by MAXI solutions e.U. in Vienna, a software company founded by Maximilian Wöhrer, specializing in computer vision and machine learning, with roots in academic research.
