Swatch X Omega

darragh o meara

Finally got the chance to have one in my hands, The design looks great but the feel and the weight of it just doesn't do anything for me. Swatch do a nice range of Steel watches for not mental money. Imagine they put a steel case on this and charged an extra few quid..

Having said that, I may still get one but my urgency to do so has waned off a bit.

It interesting that when handling a speedmaster for 3-5k generally one (or at least a watch person) can see the quality and understand the price.

Yet when handling this there is universal agreement that for 300 quid it is pure garbage.

It’s a strange logic that seems to apply only to watch folk. Non watch people will think both are over priced.

Both ARE overpriced 🤣

Speedmaster now retails at €6.5k which is insane. At least with the moonswatch, you pay retail and you can sell it the next day for 35% more. With the proper speedmaster, you'd struggle to sell it the next day for 35% less.

@H_Lime - "No Omega in the window either."
