Swatch Collecting
« on: May 14, 2012, 03:44:58 AM »
Are there any swatch collectors out there? I recently bought some 80's swatch... they worked n I thought maybe I'll get some more. Now I cant seen to stop buying vintage swatch. How much does a decent swatch actually go for? I buy between rm100-200. All pop models.

I used to have 4 Swatches, gave away 2, now left 2 pieces.
One is a dress watch, and the other is a diver watch.
My Swatch diver watch straps broke (made of rubber and coz' of wear and tear) into 3 about a month ago, and now I am using my dress watch band on the diver watch.

Perhaps one day your collection of Swatch watches will be like this:

Likewise, me too. Use it for sporting activities like Golf, table tennis, tennis and jogging.
