Careful. Many fakes out there. Buy from Swatch if you get one.

I have two, Earth and Pluto. For my first I stood in line a at a single day Swatch pop-up shop in my area for 2.5 hours. I never do stuff like that, but glad I did. The second was a gift from my dad. He bought a couple for my brother and I, brother’s ended up being a fake. Fleabay I think.
I really enjoy them, and yes they are conversation starters. I’d like to get more someday but it is a bit of a hassle. |

My wife got me one for our anniversary last year. I lol'd that the box says Mission to Uranus.

I was a fan of both companies, but the way they handled the release of those watches, turned me off to both brands.
plenty of other neato Swiss made stuff to enjoy. ymmv |

I just bought a Mission to the Moon at the Swatch store in Times Square. I’ve only worn it for a few hours yesterday so I really haven’t had enough time with it to offer an opinion.

I keep looking at them, and liking the concept and design, but they’re asking $300 for a $50 watch.

If given the opportunity would probably buy it, but only for the conversation aspect. They're neat and a fun concept but they're basically a very expensive swatch, not a very cheap Omega.

I bought a Mercury, a moon and an Earth one for me and one each for my boys. I also have a Speedie Moon and an X-33 but tend to wear the Mercury one on a more regular basis as I’m not nearly as worried about it.
It has a pretty pronounced ticking sound but I’m happy with it and remember Swatches from the late ‘80s that I beat the shit out of kept working. |

Just thought two yesterday in Lucerne Switzerland. Went because of the limited Blue Super Moon version. Was 12th in line. Left with the blue one and a black Snoopy new moon version.

I grabbed a Mercury one not too long ago. Kind of a fun watch. I'm disappointed they aren't selling online or anything, because I'd love to get a few as gifts and I'm a long way a way from any Swatch store
