Watch World Luxury, a watch retailer based on the island nation of Malta, has had their gambling license revoked by The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA), the regulator in the region. With their license being revoked, the brand is not allowed to perform any gaming operations, including the accepting of new deposits or the registering of new players on their sites.

World Watch Luxury, a retailer based in the region held draws for its watches on social media as well offered peer-to-peer games on its sites through its Type 3 B2C gambling services licence, which was issued by the Malta Gaming Authority in 2018. The brand’s sites are currently both not active.
