Building hype? They simply exploited one of the brands they own, then exploited their customers for free publicity. I may buy one, but Swatch's actions in making this release with so few stock on hand, poor communication to customers etc. was gross.
Hi! The interesting thing about this is how the conglomerate manages the masses, if you realize, even people with experience have fallen for the crook, they have handled the propaganda well, obviously, it is about Swatch, which is not bad, but a certain part of the community has gotten carried away, it's a shame, because I don't think this piece is worth what it costs, and it's not about owning something just because, well, it's everyone's money, it's respectable, but in this environment of Horology enthusiasts, tread carefully, I think there are better options out there with more value for your money. Greetings!
It is pure marketing genius and has given Omega and Swatch the global exposure that no amount of advertising could buy. Omega and Swatch now have to announce the online availability date as soon as possible in order to stop the flippers. If some of the crazy people in these queues are mad enough to buy outside the stores from the flippers at ridiculous prices then I have to say they deserve to be ripped off.
Mate just returned from the Edinburgh Swatch store. Waited in que for 4 hours to find out they only received 220 pieces. People camped outside the store from 8pm the previous night and people walking out of the store were immediately selling the watch to the one's back in the line for 3 to 4 times the price.
I agree with you that Omega is building up their future clients through this collab with Swatch. I would say the launch is very successful for both Brands. Just be patience everyone, we will get the Moonswatch of our choice. Meanwhile enjoy what you have now. 😀
I fully agree with you it's a fun thing and good long run. I was at the store at 5am in Madrid. Did not get one. Speculators were waiting a day before wow!! Still had fun talking watches with others in the crowd .
Was in downtown Montreal (Canada) this morning to see if I can buy one but the queue was insane at least 500+ people waiting and many seemed like they camped out too 😆. It’s a nice fun watch but waiting in line for hours on end not my thing. I’ll wait for the online release not in a hurry at all!
Happened all over the world!! Think it's kinda dirty and this is exactly what they wanted. I'll spend my hard earned cash on a more respectful brand that's cares for the customer and enthusiasts more then the chaos.
Imagine going through all that just to buy a plastic quartz watch. Of course, the irony is that you can just walk into any Omega boutique right now and buy the real Moonwatch.
Such a Great Idea, just in time, when the Swiss Watch Industry needed it! Thank you Swatch/Omega…this pretty watch will attract the young generations and ensure the watch bug will prevail for another century.
I have 2021 Batgirl and Pepsi that wear. I will definitely buy one or two of these MoonSwatch when they become available online. I definitely won’t stand in some long line with these greedy flippers! I think they will be a nice summer watch. I like your videos. Be well!
4:05 Hahaha that’s my friend Henrik standing there (the guy in the black face mask, white T-shirt and the shorts, inside the black strap fence). He is wearing the Yacht Master 40 ever rose oyster flex.
The day before the start of sales I was in the Swatch store to get some information from the saleswoman. The phone rang like 100 times during the period I was there and everyone asked for this Watch. She also told me that some customers will be waiting at 6 a.m. I want to say that the start of sales was known for a long time and you had enough time to get some information. With the information I gathered I was more than aware that there would be such a rush. Me and a friend were there at 6am waitet 3hours and both got a Mission to Moon.
Most stores had only around 200 pieces for sale while thousands were waiting outside. The good news is that it is not a limited edition and will be available on the internet in a few weeks time. Friend of mine who works for SWATCH marketing told me they expect to sell at least 3 million pieces. Just do the math. This is the best marketing launch of a product that is not in limited edition.
I think online they will sell out in minutes. If thousands of people were already waiting in front of the Swatch Stores, hundreds of thousands will be "waiting in front" of the online shops. demand is too high and the prices on Ebay come about because there are always those who buy at these prices. What can the seller do if the watch is bid up to 1500?
The funny thing is that they are not limited. its just in hype atm.... just wait another 2-4 weeks and you can easily purchase them online for 250$. But since its not limited i will stick with my "real" speedy. great video!!! greetings
Was in houston waiting since 5pm the afternoon before and managed to grab a Mercury. There was only 73 here so it was pretty much sold out by 11:30 pm the night before.
Have you ever heard of the new thing called Rolex Grey Marked? They try to sell Rolex Watches for much more than retail , and people just buy it. Don‘t hate the Player, hate the Game, Bro
I walked passed a Swatch store while on my way to get groceries. The amount of people queueing is insane. Posted the (short) video on my channel. Luckily they queued very neatly, albeit there were police officers making sure everything went smoothly
Great video! Flippers gonna flip. But the premium price cap will always be the price of a mechanical Omega Speedy Pro. I’d gauge the market value - when the dust settles - at half the price of a Speedy Pro

Not suprised. Omega and swatch are genius. I will say, the Swatch store should have done something about the guys flipping them right in front of the store. Flippers are seriously killing the hobby.
@@timeisahumanconstruct9251 you must be fun at parties. Just because I want something doesn't mean I'd buy something, especially if I think the price exceeds the value.

@@keegan1728 This isn't about you as you aren't OP. My comment addresses all the anti-flipper comments that are heard on every video. Without flippers, I wouldn't have most of my watches. All the flipper haters should move to a socialist/communist country. I support free market capitalism.
@@timeisahumanconstruct9251 I also support free market capitalism, but at the same time I can empathize with someone who is frustrated from being gouged by scalpers.
Swatch announced stock will continue to come in. Zero point in purchasing resale. Just wait. Though this feels like the apple watch where everyone has one.
At that price point almost everyone can afford it. Plus the timing of the release which was right after pay day created a huge exodus to the malls at Kuala Lumpur that the entire city saw a HUGE traffic jam!
I'm laughing so hard at those people willing to pay $2500 for a plastic Swatch watch while wearing my seamaster and speedmaster, one on each wrist drinking my coffee in my underwear. Lol I'll wait a few weeks to buy these for my kids since they want one.
its funny how people hype stuff that are not even worth , these products are mass produced people dont worry if you dont get one today eventually you will just WAIT , thanks for the video buddy
This is a clever move from Swatch and Omega; just take a look at the people running to buy a watch: they're all youngsters who probably don't have a real watch or just have an Apple Watch. In a future, they will want to buy the real Speedy.
in my country..it became a famous issue because a potential buyer got angry when the police mending the crowd shouted at him and cut him off from the queue. The man got so angry, he was literally yelling back at the police by saying, come shoot me..fyi..this man has been queuing early at 4am, hence, he was so mad about it
Problem ain’t the flippers. It’s the people who are willing to pay x times the retail price for an unlimited, plastic speedy knock off that will become available online in the near future. Why anyone would be paying a single Dollar/Dirham over retail for this piece is beyond me
I totally agree it's the buyers' fault. It's like blaming the affair partner for a cheating spouse. Last I checked it's the spouse who says the vows and signs the contract. Not watch related but applies.

I'm in Istanbul, the three Swatch outlets selling them, Forum Istanbul, Mall of Istanbul, Akasya Istanbul, had no queues at all. We called Forum Istanbul this afternoon, they said come tomorrow if you want one we have all the models. The only other place I know had no queues,was Las Vegas, it was empty when it opened. Not everyone was stupid enough to fall for the hype. Particularly with online global sales starting soon.
@@jawtek82 No, it's not. I didn't see all the stores, but the one I did had no queues at all and no reports of queues at the other two. Maybe other people are a little bit dumb but they don't like to think other people aren't so stupid. 🤔
@@jawtek82 He isn't lying. I saw online somewhere a photo at a place called The Forum Istanbul and there was hardly anyone in the store looking at them. Maybe not everyone is stupid enough to line up to pay $250 for a plastic toy. You're calling him a liar because you were probably one of those idiots!😂
But they need a future customer base, imagine Rolex selling always to same people and suddenly those people are gone and the rest hates the brand. They have to take care of future generations as well.
It wouldn't been so offensive had they made people buy them directly on-line so they could make costumers register themselves first thereby avoiding so many flippers.
Swatex is following the model set by Rolex. The grey market money and greed again is unchecked. As you as well as Austin Daniel's in Japan has shown the chaos created by greed. Greedy flippers have now moved into the area that should be an entry level market and made it out of reach for the very clients it was meant for.
The video of the crowd running was likely not in China because every Swatch store in China was prevented from putting the MoonSwatches on sale at all so far. This information was posted on a piece of paper taped to the doors by Swatch corp. on the select stores there. Swatch agreed not to have the watches available for sale there as previously expected at the request of the government due to fears of crowds because of ongoing COVID issues. The in-stock MoonSwatches are just sitting there until at some unknown point they'll be allowed to go on sale.
@@jawtek82 yea no biggie im not in a hurry cuz i have an actual Omega speedmaster moonwatch this was gonna be my beater watch for the gym or when Im running errands
This kind of frenzy kind of spoils the phone for me. I'd wanted one but the commotion cheapens the piece even more than its cheap price. Perhaps Swatch should have made this an online only sales experience. That would have been more elegant. Unless ofcourse, this is exactly what they had wanted would happen.
I'm looking at the insane prices they're going for. This is a $260 mass produced quartz watch and there are idiots bidding over $7,000 for them on ebay.
Hi! The interesting thing about this is how the conglomerate manages the masses, if you realize, even people with experience have fallen for the crook, they have handled the propaganda well, obviously, it is about Swatch, which is not bad, but a certain part of the community has gotten carried away, it's a shame, because I don't think this piece is worth what it costs, and it's not about owning something just because, well, it's everyone's money, it's respectable, but in this environment of Horology enthusiasts, tread carefully, I think there are better options out there with more value for your money.

Never have I see so many people clamoring for a watch on launch. It’s unreal! Props to Swatch for building so much hype on a collection.
Cheapens Omega. Would Rolex, AP, or PP do such a thing? He..... Noooooo!
Building hype? They simply exploited one of the brands they own, then exploited their customers for free publicity. I may buy one, but Swatch's actions in making this release with so few stock on hand, poor communication to customers etc. was gross.

The interesting thing about this is how the conglomerate manages the masses, if you realize, even people with experience have fallen for the crook, they have handled the propaganda well, obviously, it is about Swatch, which is not bad, but a certain part of the community has gotten carried away, it's a shame, because I don't think this piece is worth what it costs, and it's not about owning something just because, well, it's everyone's money, it's respectable, but in this environment of Horology enthusiasts, tread carefully, I think there are better options out there with more value for your money. Greetings!
is this automatic or quartz?
Mission accomplished. They will probably be available online in a year or two.
Can't believe that somebody actually gave away their rolex for a moonswatch 🤣
A fool and his money will soon be parted!!!
I'd part with them for Rolex. If I could only get my hands on some MoonSwatches...
What is the rate for this watch
Does your underground VIP watch friends have some of the collection to review?
I think the interest created by Omega/swatch is awesome. Scalping though is rubbish
So many people going on the “Mission to Uranus”…
How did the flippers get the watches when the boutique wasn't even open?
No idea, I think they stayed the whole night in front of the gates and found some that. were open or so
I want to see the prices of the omega nasa velcro straps when people realize such product exists
Thanks
The crowd at Dubai seem okay to me lol people are queueing up at least 3 level in a shopping mall and most are flippers lol
Unconsciousness in a frame of so-called modern civilization🇮🇷😈
A Swatch with Omega Ad on it.
