I'll preface this by saying that I am a huge Omega fan and I currently have two of them in my collection: a diver 300m and a modern 321. As soon as I saw the news I knew two things: 1. this decision would be a controversial one 2. I wanted a mars edition.... 

As sure as night follows day…

..I’ll get some Despite my collection of many fine pieces I do always want/need a total beater for when I want to wear an interesting watch but zero worry about what could happen to it if the night goes wild. This itch is currently scratched by a white & ...  

ah it is kinda cool for a beater...

I would tend to stick to a real Swatch instead of a group mongrel that cheapens the real Moonwatch but let's open our minds and go try one later this week. I have to say the Moonswatch is quite a coup from Mr Hayek: divisive! ...  

I know exactly what you mean..

I am an Omega enthusiast and in a way I think it cheapens the brand…not the end of the world but…..WHY?

Why? The answer is simple. Omega is sowing the field . . .

. . . for a future crop of Professional owners. A shopkeeper in Malaysia who can't afford a Speedy Pro now gets a Speedy Swatch which whets his appetite for the real deal down the road. A brilliant bit of marketing, if I may say so.

My wife and I run a marketing consultancy for luxury beauty and lifestyle so this is not a new discussion the devil is in the details…again would Rolex do this?…I think if this were a “kids” watch it would be a little easier to swallow but I do think you ...

doesn't see an issue here. Had an 'OG' SM, will have one again. Will also have, unless they sell them all out, a couple of these pretty quartz 'pretenders'. Nothing potentially negative to my mind, an inexpensive quartz watch in no objective manner compet... 

I tried calling the boutique

They’re not answering the calls. Really want the Uranus and Earth edition. I asked my sister to call, as she too wants a few of them. I believe queues will form outside the swatch stores for this. Wow this is revolutionary.
