All the Moonswatch reps - new versions even

[NCRich 13,321]

So it has a removable case back with a rubber o ring.  The battery door is functional too.

Change the batteries, that's not a gen Renata, it will leak.

I like the Saturn the best. Then I saw the print on the 10 o'clock sundial is off and now I can't unsee it. Can't beat the price tho.

1) Happy to have fueled mindless purchasing of watches……..it’s kinda my thing.

2) Rich, yours look amazing really. These are definitely V3 or V4’s. Early models didn’t have proper battery doors and in some cases didn’t have recessed sub dials. I’d bet a few of yours are dead on color wise as well.

3) The ‘crystal’ etching is the ‘S’ for swatch, not the Omega symbol. Several of your pictures so the S reflecting on the dial so at least some have it, if not all.

4) I’m going down a Casio rabbit hole right now that’s gotten pretty stupid. From 1 Casio in 10 years to 10 in one month. 8 pictured below with custom cases, bracelets….some titanium. 2 inbound from Creation and one from Mercari.

Its not off that far.  Printed slightly differently than the other dials but it is close to correct.  Some of the pics I see from gate customers have it a bit better than mine.

Just pulled out my GEN. The updated version that Rich bought - definitely has the correct Swatch Watch script at the bottom of the dial. Hard to see on the dark faces - moon, mercury, Neptune - but it’s there. My rep’s don’t have hat at all.

I cracked the case back and the battery hatch may be operable on my version as well. Not going to tempt fate. The movement is also stamped - PE50 Sunon 0 jewels.

Well it’ll go higher. Just full retail is $240 per Watch USD so that’s $2,500 with no markup. I’d expect $4 to $5K USD for a full set unless that market is finally settling. Now if it had the Blue Neptune - which stopped production due to the color transfer to skin/clothes - you’d need to add another $1K USD to that number for instant scarcity.

It's the box only. No watches.

Out of interest, how do you know this?

[Redfire1066 9,043]

I have an Swatch shop  .. . just round the corner here in the city  .. . . and it sells the Swatch X Omega Line of watches . .. .  it has the Genuine case in the window with the models on display  .. ..  it is sealed in a Perspex Case  .. ..  I have been told instore not even the staff have access to open it .... ... I have seen these Genuine cases displaying the watches in Glasgow, Edinburgh and London. Oxford Street Swatch Stores . .  and while it is close . .. .   the inside topside of the case is different  .. .. it dont look like this one. . ..  unless the Genuine is just a coloured card that can be removed to reveal somethng else, like what we see for sale on the  Bay . . .. .  if this is Genuine . . ..   I would be interested in how that seller could have attained it   . ... .  because I want one  . .  but not at that price       . .. .  . . .   . 

Geniune Case Below ..  

 

[cvp3 2,079]

OK…….well that’s just fucking stupid for a case. I’ll bet there’s a REP of that case, no? Time to hunt.

That Display Case sold for  . . . "a bag of sand"   . .. 

[NCRich 13,321]

@trailboss99 et al so I was going to replace all the fake Renata batteries.  Guess what?  They are REALLY fake batteries.  As in it just a piece of metal glued to the movement under the battery door.  The door doesn't line up with the real battery!

What will they think of next?

[cvp3 2,079]

Never cease to be amazed by the Chinese capability around creating copies. And yes, no luck on a case……yet

face it, if the head ruled the heart every single person on earth would be wearing an F91W, it's the highest-selling watch in the world for a reason.

Bwahahahaha! OMG! Now I've seen everything. Swap the batteries anyway, I'll bet they are fakes.  A 626 is about 36 cents after all if you buy a card of them from a wholesaler.

To be fair, I'm slagging all you pricks off, but then I literally just went and ordered this (at double the price of all the Moonswatches)....

Apparently they only made 15 Gens (and I think some are still available).

It is a favourite among the platforms engineers …. No worries or concerns with wear and tear for a measly $10 to $15 bucks

And you can't kill one, it's as tough as a G-Shock plus it has everything you need in a watch and a 10-year battery.

All that searching for a box, this will do until they make a rep.
