OVERVIEW
CRNO
CRNO (Crime Reduction Network Organisation) is a UK-based technology platform dedicated to combatting luxury-watch crime through advanced digital verification, global registry services, and real-time stolen-watch intelligence. Built with law-enforcement, insurers, retailers, industry experts and watch owners in mind, CRNO provides a secure ecosystem where every watch can be identified, validated, protected, and recovered.
Founded on the principle that a watch is far more than an accessory, it’s a memory, an investment, and often a family heirloom, CRNO delivers a modern solution to a rapidly growing global problem. With watch thefts, robberies and fraudulent sales increasing across major cities worldwide, CRNO acts as the “DVLA for watches,” giving each timepiece a verified digital identity to prevent crime, support recovery, and enhance trust in the watch market.
