Swatch - yes I said swatch :)

Recommended Posts

While digging around my garage I stumble over a tintin swatch that I was given a long time ago. Here is the original link

 

http://www.swatch.com/en/watches/originals/gent/gm165-les-aventures-de-tintin

 

Are these still being collected? I kinda grew out if swatches years ago so should I keep it or shall I get rid?

 

Really in 2 minds here

That´s an interesting topic I have a huge pile of swatch collectibles my dad passed on to me, but

I never wear them, so would be nice to know if anyone still collects them.

There's one on Amazon for $55.

 

I say keep it for "nostalgia" value.

The Swatch collecting "groups" have mostly died out as far as I know. I used to browse Squiggly quite a bit when I had my Swatch collection but I, rightly ;) , moved onto G Shocks.

I just sold my Jeremy Scott swatch for 50% more than I bought it for (full retail) :)

if you have it in MINT condition in its original box with the TINTIN comic book. well , that could be worth a lot. tintinophila in europe could be crazy.

i sold two original TINTIN statues (test made by leblon delienne in ceramic) ( photo below) for 6 000€ each. that was sold for 300€ back in the days.
