Apps like Tinder and Bumble have managed to gamify dating and Swiss-based WatchAdvisor is hoping to use the same principles in its WatchTinder service. Partnering with watch e-retailer Troverie, WatchAdvisor will finally bring its extensive database of timepieces to America. The Swiss-based brand has already established a presence across Europe, and its large database has been used by countless watch enthusiasts to compare and choose their perfect timepiece.

Like the Tinder dating app, WatchTinder will make a match based on user preferences. To gauge these preferences the service will ask a variety of questions, including, what style they prefer, their price range, and how iconic they want their choices to be. Once a user matches with their perfect watch, the service will connect to Troverie to give buyers an option to immediately purchase the timepiece.
