A nice surprise, without being one, that this Swatch Moonswatch received for Christmas. Being a happy owner of an Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch, I had this very attractive crossover on my radar and it immediately caught my attention when it was launched! In fact, it is a Swatch Quartz Chronograph at €250, or €50 more than the brand's other chronographs... it's quite expensive for a useless plastic object... This is where it becomes attractive to agree to be captured by a well-conducted operation that has allowed Swatch to seduce both passionate amateurs (call them what you want) and the general public who don't care about watchmaking but who find happiness in Swatch's magic recipe with its pop and tangy watches. The first target being microscopic compared to the second who for a modest price discovers that there are other things at Swatch than plastic watches... and that a watch has gone to the Moon! In 10 years, young people will come and testify on the Dialicious channel that their first emotion in watchmaking was a Moonswatch… and probably that the Omega brand “speaks” to them more than others! That’s the magic of watchmaking, seeing things that others don’t see. In this Moonswatch Jupiter, I see a thoughtful gift from my loved ones, the satisfaction of being a voluntary victim of the marketing of the two brands Swatch and Omega… It’s perfect if you understood that this Moonswatch is not a Moonwatch ;-)

Being a fan of the Speedmaster that I intend to buy one day, I hesitated for a long time to get this Moonswatch from the prices offered on the internet until I came across an ad with for once a price identical to that asked in store and what's more in hand delivery so I said to myself, let's go for it and so for a few days now I have been the owner of this iteration of the Speedmaster. Apart from that the watch is pretty but you can see that it is not made to last over time and that it is therefore a disposable watch. That said it does the job and pleases my nephew enormously to whom I am thinking of giving it and who knows, it might make him want to buy a real Speed in a few years.

Hello, Moonswatch collector while agreeing to skip the pink and the yellow, the Neptune is the rarest. Obviously no limited series, you just have to be patient and have luck. This blue is a real success. The detractors will say that it is only marketing ... do not listen to them! Treat yourself, the Neptune or any Moonwatch will get you some

I invite everyone to enter the magical world of the moonswatch. Of course the quality/price ratio is questionable but the proportions are preserved. I just blame the Jupiter for not having more readable hands. However it is a "must have" for any solar system and Omega enthusiast

The moonswatch embodies the alliance of accessible watchmaking and space adventure. Its bioceramic steel case reflects the era of time, while the black dial evokes celestial infinity. The luminescent hands recall the brightness of the stars, and a subtle lunar index marks the time of the rendezvous with the moon. Elegant and functional, this watch celebrates the timeless link between the Earth and the moon.

Swatch MoonSwatch, mission to Saturn...I said: "Great PR stunt...they're not bad...all plastic, irreparable, 250 euros, not for me!...." And then, months went by and I myself passed a shop in which I asked if there were MoonSwatches...and bam! Yes! 8 different ones...and then I fell in love with the mission to Saturn...very fun watch...what a stunt from the Swatch group!!!

I admit, I didn't want it at first! A battery-powered Swatch, what an idea🤨! And then I happened to be on the Champs Élysées, I had some time to waste. And that's how marketing wins 🤷🏾‍♂️ And that's a good thing because it's nice, light and you can see it on your wrist. I love it!!!

After the Mercury and the Moon, I was tempted by this Jupiter. As a fan of watches with orange color (see my other reviews), I was inevitably seduced by these hands that go very well with the beige case. I changed the strap for an Erika Marine Nationale that suits it very well and makes it much more comfortable to wear than with the original strap.

Completely won over by the concept when it was announced, I finally went a bit crazy when I saw the moonswatch in real life in a shop window, finding the colors and design a bit of a failure. Like everyone else, I wanted one and like everyone else, I couldn't get one, I went to a dozen swatch stores during the year following the release all over Europe and the same observation each time: the little stock available was sold as soon as the store opened. But beyond the hype, the "cool" and very desirable side of the watch, I knew that I needed a reason to add this piece to my collection, following the opinions on the internet and in my entourage only confirmed a universal thing: buying a watch by default or because it's the watch to have without any other stimuli behind it is condemning yourself to having nothing to do with the watch, money purely thrown out the window to pile up a dead object at home. Sad. I am a golfer and one of the curses of this sport is that it is not compatible with mechanical watches: the violent shock that goes through our arm with each shot is a danger for our watch movements, as robust as they are. So I have to spend my golf sessions without a watch (a horror) or with my quartz watches, but you quickly stand out with a G-shock on your wrist in this atmosphere. I had been looking for a quartz watch for a long time that could really have a really strong, sporty and classy design and I can tell you that, as a big fan of the Speedmaster, the announcement of the moonswatch made a spark in my brain. I decided to go for the earth model (one of those that I found the ugliest at first) firstly because the color is perfectly suited to a golf course, and then because the gray/black ones that are used to "imitate" a real Moonwatch really don't work in my opinion. Only thing that is O-B-L-I-G-A-T-O-R to do immediately for any moonswatch buyer: CHANGE THE STRAP! The concept is nice to have given us an astronaut style strap to stay in the theme of the planets I'm not saying but concretely the basic strap is unwearable as it is ugly, impractical and not very comfortable. The moonswatch has many flaws but it does have one quality: it is to have a wide range of straps that suit it and that allow to give it a really nice style. For mine I opted for a dark blue/grey OMEGA Nato that I had originally bought for my Seamaster 300m and I find that it changes absolutely everything, the watch goes from a small plastic toy to a watch with a crazy visual harmony and perfectly adapted to the role that I wanted it to have in my collection. No regrets about having bought this watch which meets a need for me: a beautiful, inexpensive and light watch for sport.

I immediately loved the MoonSwatch. I liked this unnatural association. I quickly became disillusioned with the stupid madness and speculation surrounding this piece of plastic. Now that the situation has become more or less healthy, I fell for the Mission to Moon which comes to sleep in the watch box next to the "real" Speedmasters. The resemblance is obvious and the style is cool. On the other hand, the quality is deplorable. The strap seems to be made of silk because it deteriorates so quickly and the plastic case, sorry, bio ceramic, is light and cheap as hell. Not to mention the pushers, you wonder if the thing is not going to fall apart after 2 manipulations. In short, it's hype, it's funny, it's fun, but it's so badly made. At this price it's shameful and disrespectful to customers. Oh yes, plus it's not comfortable to wear, the bracelet is tight, itchy, impossible to put on properly... in short, something that doesn't cost 250chf but is essential in a collection.
