This is the best video I saw of the whole collection. Thank you so much
Love this video for showing all 11 designs with just enough air time for each design ❤
I happily and excitedly picked up a Mission to Mars at the King of Prussia Mall in King of Prussia, PA just on ghe outskirts of Philly. I am pumped just to have it on my wrist as I have seen them being sold at ridiculous prices on Ebay and scalpers making out incredibly! I got raves at work by people asking me what is that? When they saw Omega and Swatch had collaborated , they were blown away! I absolutely Love this time piece! Blessed to have one! 🙏🏻❤️
I’ve been an Omega fan for years now. I have several vintage pieces and of course also the “real” Speedy.
This MoonSwatch is not supposed to be luxury. As far as I can tell, the only people getting bitter with it are the people that buy a watch as a status symbol and not for the passion of collecting time pieces. It’s a genius marketing move. Giving young horology enthusiasts a starting point. This inevitably will put Omega in peoples minds who maybe never even considered this brand for a luxury time piece.
Omega flipped Rolex the biggest of birds with this. I love Rolex as well, but their scarcity game is very off putting and frustrating.
This one will definitely become part of my collection once it’s available online.
for me the MoonSwatch enabled something that i haven´t dared with my original Moonwatch: i really love the design and would like to daily drive the watch, but - even though i work mostly in the office - i sometimes have to go on construction sites, where it is possible that my watch gets damaged. Also leaving it in the office is no option because offices are open and a lot of contractors go in and out (money, rings etc. already disappeared from co-workers).
That´s where the moonSwatch comes into play: i can daily drive the MoonSwatch as subsitute for the Moonwatch. it´s much easier to swallow if a 250$ watch might get damaged instead of my 5000$ watch...
Well, as far as "Omega flipping Rolex the bird", hah! Wrong! Getting a Swatch MoonSwatch is actually harder to get than the actual Omega Moonwatch. Swatch even lied about a lot of things. First, they said people can but 2 per person on first release, but on the actual day it became 1 per person. Second, Swatch said plenty will be made available online, now on their instagram feeds, Swatch says the MoonSwatch will now only be made available in SELECT Swatch stores (not all Swatch Stores, just some select ones). Third, Swatch said that it is not a limited release and will be made available for everyone, now, according to the latest news, the MoonSwatch will only be made available up to the end of the year (2022).....Wow. That's showing Rolex. Hahaha! Making a Swatch a trade bait for flippers? Yeah...Rolex will be so proud.
M planning to get two of them which one should I buy ? Plz suggest !
Well said. Agree 💯
I'm digging that Mission to Pluto version.
Yeah, that's a sleeper hit that one
The mission to Uranus is the most appealing.👌🏽
I will definitely get a few - great collaboration here with Omega/Swatch. Thx T&T! Keep 'em coming....
Cheers Claz, can't stop won't stop

02:26 MISSION TO MERCURY（gray）
02:37 MISSION TO VENUS（pink）

It's Mission ON Earth. We don't do missions TO Earth because we are already ON Earth. :)
You meant Jupiter (beige) and Saturn (brown)
This is the best review of Moon Swatch. Thank you for the helpful contents.^^
I like the the Mission to the Moon because of its similarity to the original Moon Watch. But any of the color choices would be pleasing to own. Omega needs to come out with the collector’s set featuring all 11 colors.
This is why I got a bulova lunar pilot watch, the ties to history are good and it’s much cheaper, i paid 275 plus taxes for mine and it’s put together much better than these
This is THE BEST Moonswatch video!
Picked up the Mission to the Moon in Oahu and imo it’s the best interpretation when seeing in person.
I'm a personal owner of a official Omega Speedmaster, I love it. I recently tried the Swatch collaboration with the Omega Speedmaster and bought the Mission to Pluto Swatch. It looks closest to my real one. The Swatch one feels very lightweight compared to the real one. The style and looks or a 7/10. If you're a young adult this is for you. I can also recommend this to a watch collector because they are rare to find. Neptune looks real cool but is the rarest one. The rarest ones in order are Neptune, Mercury, Moon, Pluto, and Saturn.
I wish they would make them available online already, store locations are at polar opposites in the UK.
Kinda defeats the fun a little bit, if they were super super easy to get, but can see both sides. I don't mind the boutique only approach, but that's partly because there are boutiques in Melbourne.
I agree with you, Preeyen. I'm also looking to get one online. However, Swatch has been relatively quiet since it's initial release. The longer they remain silent on availabilty, the more I'm likely to allocate my fund to a more legitimate timepiece rather to just a "fun" one.
@@Timeandtidewatches but if it's not a limited release, why make it so difficult to get. I'm happy to go to a boutique just not driving for 5 hours.
Agreed, ther's not a physical store within a ten hour drive of me and I'm not about to pay the overinflated prices the gougers are asking for them.
You wouldn't mind making the trip if you knew that there was stock available, but I've made several trips to London only to queue up and be disappointed. By the time I factor in my travel, parking, tube and eating in London, the additional costs take the 'fun' out of it. It's almost cheaper to buy from the scalpers online.
That background track is bouncing in all the right ways
I hope they don’t just limit this collaboration to the Moonwatch, this could be just the start of something of bigger future collabs. They could venture to expanding the concept to the Seamaster Omega x Swatch collab too: there are 31 varieties of the Sea theme for them to think about (e.g., Atlantic, Mediterranean, Red, Baltic, Arabian, South China, Celebes, etc). Another one is Railmaster collab series: the likes of Amtrak, British, Eurostar, Trenitalia, Oriental Express, SBB, etc). Better yet, the Constellation collab series would do great with so many possible variants.
Great idea 👌
Good way for Omega to cheapen their brand.
this is genius
Then add another $200 to the price and make materials cheaper!
Completely disagree. A one-off collab is cool and gets people talking. Do it twice and then they lose credibility and their brand cheapens.
Mission to Mars and Mission to Saturn are my favourites. Can’t wait until they sell them online❤️🙏
I have a moon watch Uranus I want to sale
Thanks for your review
I like them all, but my favorite is probably Saturn, Pluto, Venus & Mercury.
I think they should already bring out of those selected areas towards the secondary markets like Manila, Wellington, Buenos Aires and Johannesburg. You have no idea how badly I want one
I have mission to saturn, just bought yesterday. Atlast!!!
Uranus,Saturn,moon and earth ugh those are just perfect wow I want all four lol
Picked up mission to earth today, for me it or Neptune are my favs, I own a speedy. Have to say the strap gets a lot of flack but so far I really like it, lume is decent on it too for price. Fun piece to have and wear, playful. Might pick up some in future for the kids as presents (save them for grad present or special occasion)
I would be happy with any of the Omega moon watches you might have. My top pick is Mission to Uranus
I imagine the fakes are pretty similar if not exact due to the "bio ceramic" or posh plastic case.
Mars and the moon ones are on my list. I'm absolutely fascinated with Mars.
I would really like to have them all 11 pieces and display them on my home haha!
im hyped for the snoopy.
Mission on Earth is my favorite...
Plutos not even a planet anymore and we still counting it XD
I'm being pulled towards mission to Neptune. 🚀
More chance of going to the 🌙 than getting your hands one!
I like Mission to Pluto (love that burgundy) and Mission to the Moon.
All are my favourite
I think that i have to get the Saturn, Pluto and the moon watch. To good
Super presentation! Wish one could walk-in and see them all while buying the one you want! When???
We wish we knew!
i like the mission to mercury and the mission to moon model
I think there are not enough MoonSwatch videos yet... 😂😂😂
Challenge accepted!
Nice review. I’m in favour of the mission to Jupiter. 👍
Pluto, Mission to the moon.
I was initially convinced it was moon, then none now it’s easier to dismiss the garish colours
Richmond has all 11 in the art&tech department (kids❤️planets)
Yellow would like to buy but with smaller dial size superb I'm been wearing swatch watches from m9re than 15 years
Saturn is my most Fave
I wonder when will it be available in Singapore. It's been too quiet and no news on it's availability.
2:28 The Mercury is stunning 😍 Hope to get that one.
4:42 Unless Swatch fixed the bleeding problem the Neptune has, that one should be avoided.
What bleeding problem?
@@syedzohair9859 Look it up.
Man to the moon is the best
Does anyone know best tool to pop open the battery cover? Anything metal like small flat screwdriver Surly will damage the casing .
You got the look, but not the soul.
Funny the mighty execs at Rolex have not decided on a counter-move. Though we could take it as a sign that the apocalypse is upon us when a collab between Rolex and Timex will yield ---- GASP!!! , the ROMEX !!!🤪
bro i went to bondie at 3 pm and they had a neptune
wow!!
that castor oil mixture makes the color of the plastic come off on your skin
Nope, just on Neptune, and slightly on Mars apparently. Rest, no issues.
I want them all GOdAMn SoN
I got the Earth one I’m on a mission to get the other 10 , buy one watch a month😂
((Moon and Jupiter are the ones to get))
Mission to Saturn and Neptune ❤
Love mission to Pluto and mission to Saturn 🤌🤌
I bought the mission to mercury. I was hoping it was going to have the “sweeping” second hand and not the ticking second hand (if that makes sense) what is that called I don’t know anything about watches
Okay, but hear me out. Swatch Irony MoonSwatch in Stainless.
Yeah nah, not going to happen 😝
Mars, Saturn and earth…❤❤❤
Have both the Moon and Neptune missions, looks way cheaper for the 260$ price tag but the watch dial is awesome.
they missed the opportunity to make to paint the dial as the planet/moon/sun they represent :(... maybe their next edition
Pink red then grey !
So much winning
My favorite mission to the Mars
The collector's choice 👍
@@Timeandtidewatches absolutely
Waiting for Omega SeaMaster X Swatch
Don't hold your breath on that one 😜
Picked up Jupiter in Zurich Chinese tourists were trying all over to get them
I will get the mission to mars but I don't know if to get it from scalpers or just wait patiently for who knows how long on the website:(
saturn is my fav
I really dont know why people are shiting on it i love these watches i just got my first one yesterday qnd i fucking love it
Mission to Pluto and Saturn are by far my favorite designs, the only question I'm really asking myself is if I'm throwing my money away on a toy watch, or just save it and get another entry-level watch for the same price
These aren't toy watches. They are a nice place to start a collection and get people interested about swatch, omega, speedmaster, bioceramic and every thing around those pieces. And if you're concern about durability keep in mind that omega is a luxury brand, my guess is that they don't want their reputation to be damage on a cheap watch - they cut the cost down by using swatch materials and quartz instead of mechanical movements. At this price point, you can't go wrong IMO !
And I agree, pluto and saturn a freakin gorgeous !! I strongly hesitate between Mercury/Pluto/Saturn
Mission to Pluto is so underrated
Finally found folks who love the Pluto and the Saturn
Gonna pick 1 this week, which one to go for?
What did you mean when you said the mercury is more aesthetic?
What did the orange hands mean?
Mission to uranus looks way better in person I got myself one today. Over the mission to mars and Venus
Is it rue that the "crystal " plastic and can't be replaced?
Is all about Pluto for me, I even got a couple of straps already waiting for it, natos of course so I don't get my wrist stained... although I'm not sure it will be available in my country, is there a site you can go and check that? can't find it anywhere.
Pluto will not stain - anecdotally Neptune and Mars only, with Mars being very slight.
@@Timeandtidewatches Good to know, still not going to wear the original strap
What strap color did you order? I’m curious what could fit the Pluto model
Where did you buy the straps?
Apparently, the plastic crystal is actually fused to the case and so cannot be replaced, and it can be scratched just by getting it out of the packaging - dreadful! You can polish it out with the right stuff, but why should you have to?
Exactly. Look, everybody and their cousin carries a phone now. We have the exact time available with little trouble. Watches are almost obsolete except for style. I’m not really sure why there is a market for cheap watches right now, it seems pointless. This collaboration is a head scratcher as well, great for swatch but is it really good for Omega? Imagine McDonalds selling a Ruth’s Chris burger.
Are these watches ran by movement?
Still can't pick between the mission to the moon, jupiter and pluto. They all look gorgeous but its tough to pick one 😩
Reckon I'll end up with, uh, way more than one 😬 - Andrew
@@Timeandtidewatches Gotta catch them all!
What if one day you end up getting the Speedmaster Professional. If you choose the mission to the moon, you’ll have two that look super alike. Why not go with a colorful one like Pluto or Jupiter and then you would have the Professional and the playful colorful Swatch :)
@@edelmar17 good idea but the reason im considering the mission to the moon is so that i know if the professional is the watch for me. I see it as a "demo" version of the watch and it would tell me if i would really like the professional or not. Another reason is that its a better strap monster than the other two. Its SO versatile and I like that about it. However i do agree with you and i also have my own reasons for considering the pluto and jupiter. Thank you for the suggestion!
@@dancinglizard3080 hey those are valid points too! Hopefully they’ll be available online soon 😬
Personally I think the moon and mercury ones are the best looking
At the end of the day it is plastic with a cheap quartz movement. Swatch will release on-line once popularity fades which should be soon. Good video, however. Ty!
And priced to reflect, so no issue in our opinion! Thank you too for watching
@@Timeandtidewatches it´s still insanely overpriced tho. just because its way cheaper than the "real one" doesnt mean it´s good value imo.
My picks- #1- Sun, #2- Neptune, #3- Uranus
Sun?😂
@@muhammadkemal8583 why ?
they should have used a white strap for the pluto watch
I have just purchased the mission to Saturn 🪐 I love it and I think mission to The Sun will be my next!
mission to jupitor🥰🥰
Mission to Venus.. very different from the rest... different font on the Tachymetre and only reading up to 400 rather than 500 like the rest of the collection..
No DON eventhough it's specified as having it in the description... maybe an undervalued collectable??
Hot one coz of pink - pink is 🔥 atm
Mission to UrAnus
Here’s my ranking. 10/10 Moon. 9/10 Uranus, Mercury. 8/10 Neptune, Mars, Earth. 7/10 Jupiter. 6/10 Pluto, Sun. 5/10 Saturn. 4/10 Venus… I like them all apart from Saturn (poo brown strap) and Venus (waste of lovely powder pink case with a weird dial design.).. That said - what would I buy? Well I have a Pluto I wear daily (love it - even if other colours more appealing) and I have a Moon on the way (the icon.) Next up I would like a Mars (because of the historic design connection - also I think it will be fun to use as a running timer.) Hmm maybe I need that Uranus too…
Funny. The Pluto and Moon are the two I would buy first too.
@@scottgovers3347Same, Moon, Pluto and Uranus
Mars😂😂😂
I really want the white straps since i haven't own any watches with wihte straps.. But still afraid of making them dirty 🤭
just buy white straps and put them on your current watch. easy.
Initially I wanted to buy all eleven and was really excited - now after hearing about the lousy quality and the unavailability game, I am not interested anymore. I won’t go for it anymore.
Pass
How Much,, plz
The only problem is strap, mine is Venus
Let's be honest, they are all fun. But The real thing is the Mission to the Moon
Nahhh mate, disagree, the MTM will always lose out to the real versions, whereas the others are their own thing.
If you buy all of them NASA gives u a free trip to all 11 planets so get to work!
Dear swatch i got a very nice Casio edifice with sapphire glass , solar, blue tooth connect and much more , thanx for making this watch unavailable, I now have a watch that will last me a life time and blows your plastic POS out of the window.
Guys can someone help me ? I love the Pluto one and the Moon on and the Mercury one, which one to choose ? That’s so hard 😩
My brother has the Pluto watch and it’s gorgeous😍
What a coincidence, I just bought the Pluto watch yesterday ! And I’m very happy 😊
Im going to buy Pluto
Mars and moon are best
Saturn….Saturn
The strap is just trash but everything else is great!
