Moonswatch
« on: March 24, 2022, 11:57:38 AM »
Thoughts on the new Swatch X Omega collab?

IMO, I like that they are making it accessible for a wider audience, especially for those who can’t afford the original moonwatch.

Only thing to think about is…which one to buy…I have the sistem 51 and absolutely love it. Will definitely make a bee line to the shops day after to have a look see…This will pair nicely with my speedy pro

It is an interesting model and a good fun watch. Since it is only sold in selected Swatch boutiques, then I will only get one IF I happen to be there and IF the variant I want is available.

I am surprised the Omega forums are full of haters...

they've always been a much nicer bunch than the Rolex forums, and then the Moonswatch came along and they crawled out of the woodwork


even though the Omega name and logo is there, Omega themselves don't seem to be selling the watch so it's more like Swatch making a moonwatch the Swatch way..

I think it's cute, my kids like it, and this will start their journey to the real Omega timepiece..

Though not limited edition watches, I think demand is going to exceed supply and the scalpers are going to have a field year with these. They'll probably sell out within an hour or so and I doubt there'll be any to see at the Swatch shop once you reach the shop end of the mile long queue. We'll soon find out come Saturday.

Yep, get set for #SoldOutCulture this saturday. RM 1065 a piece, only at Swatch Pavi, only 2 pcs max per customer, no duplicate color choices. I actually dropped by the Omega boutique just now n the SA was getting call after call from clients asking about the Moonswatch (love that nickname btw). These r great, but I wonder if they're gonna go the way of other flippable merch. Especially dat mission to youranus  :Laughing_on_floor:

Any L2L dimensions or is it a carbon copy of the speedy pro in terms of dimensions?

Fear not

Was just gonna ask if this was a LE. You answered it in time haha. I like the Monnswatch, but not crazy enough to queue up and rush for it. Well at least I know at some time or another, I would be able to get my hands on it.

I agree that this will be the situation in the short term. Thus it is important that buyers out there be prudent.

I suppose if really desperate, one could pay the scalpers for a backdoor to Uranus.  :mooning:

Bud it ain't plastic, it's Castor oil!

Just wait till you feel the effects of castor oil and silicone on Uranus.

I heard that at Pavi, they gave out only 200+ numbered tickets this morning to those who lined up outside the mall's main entrance - only 1 watch per person limit. Those who were already lining up outside the Swatch shop before the mall's opening time didn't get squat.  :o :P
