    Great, comprehensive review. I’m glad I’m not the only person annoyed by the chronograph minute subdial not being fully marked. I understand why they did that, but yea it annoys me.

    Thank you for just reviewing it as a regular watch. Sick of all the desperate hot takes on these things. They’re fun watches made to look cool and I think they do their job well. Expecting any more out of a colorful space themed swatch is ridiculous lol

    Absolutely genius move. An official replica watch. Affordable. Looks good- quartz, chronograph. Doesn’t chip away from the real speedmaster (probably boosts sales from awareness to a new generation). Desirable for swatch fans. Desirable for omega fans. Desirable for NASA fans.

    Personally I will buy one when they become available at a decent price. I think the Moon or Mercury ones look the best. I’ll likely change it to a NATO Strap

    Man, what makes me go crazy is Breitling selling the Endurance Pro for 3000, it's a plastic, quartz watch just like this one!!!!!! it doesn't make sense to me!!!! I will have one of this, but 3000 for plastic watch is out of sense. my opinion tho

    Mission to Jupiter and the Mission to Mars are indeed the best looking and lots of fun to won for 260 euro. Black strap on the Mission to Jupiter and a red strap on the Mars will do for me.

  • @skd
    @skd 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    It's a happy meal watch (I own the Mars one). Too flimsy, full plastic (ceramic composite is basically plastic. It breaks very easy). It's a nice fun watch to wear, but it looks and feels cheap. I would not recommend one.

  • @FatController23
    @FatController23 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think this was all planned INCLUDING saying “it will be available online” and “this is not a limited release” to what it is now which is short of supply and will always be. The “Rolex” style of planned unavailability is all it is.

    This is a no go for me for 3 reasons. 1. Color transfer to skin wen worn. 2. Plastic lens or crystal scratches easily. 3. The crystal is fused to case and can not be replaced. You can get a steel knock off with a real crystal lens for $200.

    These watches with their easy to scratch glass are NOT changeable. They are laser fused into the casing. If you scratch them to the point of not able to buff out, throw away the watch and get a new one! They should bring out new variants of this series; mission to a black hole and mission to Hell.

    Just read online that the plastic crystal is fused to the case, so if it’s damaged and needs replaced it’s toast. Thoughts?

  • @alt9925
    @alt9925 2 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    I hope they don’t just limit this collaboration to the Moonwatch, this could be just the start of something of bigger cute collabs. They could venture to expanding the concept to the Seamaster Omega x Swatch collab too: there are 31 varieties of the Sea theme for them to think about (e.g., Atlantic, Mediterranean, Red, Baltic, Arabian, South China, Celebes, etc). Another one is Railmaster collab series: the likes of Amtrak, British, Eurostar, Trenitalia, Oriental Express, SBB, etc). Better yet, the Constellation collab series would do great with so many possible variants.

      I just found out about this Swatch and Omega collab by passing the San Francisco stores yesterday. They weren’t busy and I thought this was a brand new launch . So I didn’t go into the store and just assumed they had all models. So after learning more about this collab, I went back today and they had 3 models and would let you touch them or tell you how many of each they had left. Anyway, they no longer have lines, but still only selling one per person a day. I could’ve just gone with a friend to get around the rule but wasn’t even aware of that rule until I was there. I might go back tomorrow and pick up the Venus and why I’m looking at this great review.

    It's a throwaway marketing watch. It gets the Omega name on more wrists full stop.
    China will soon have it available to for sub 30dollars .

    The thing is, it's not a Speedmaster. It's a Swatch with Omega branding. I respect your enthusiasm but now that the hype has settled folks are thinking a bit more clearly. The movement is non repairable although the case cant be opened anyway so if the watch fails at some point, it's a brick. To compare it with a Speedmaster is silly. It's great that you're enjoying it but I think you're opinion is clouded by the hype.

      it brings Omega to the masses, clever move in my book!
