Nice surprise from my wife yesterday when she came back from ladies trip to Bangkok - a “Moonswatch”. Although it looks plasticy, it’s light. I suspect the velcro strap is heavier than the watch. Nevertheless, i like it. Now it’s time to find alternate straps to jazz up the look. Not sure if this belongs in the forum since it’s a quartz movement. 😀. What do you think?

My only complaint is the lack of water resistance. Otherwise it would make a perfect holiday companion, since most travel insurance only covers $1,500 per item at best.

It does. Since i dont have the omega moonwatch is my collection, this one will do just fine. Here’s another shot after changing the strap to rubber, while awaiting for other straps to arrive.

I’m sure it will match well with many straps

It can be a “mannequin” in case the original moon watch ever arrives by surprise 😁
