avc0002 83 Posted February 27, 2014 I know they're a pretty cheap brandy but does anyone on here have any? Some of the ones they make are pretty sweet Yes, I have one, recently purchased a Windfall. Had one many moons ago, and always wanted another, so searched, and hunted for the right period model, and finally got one on the bay. http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a595/avc0002/swatch_zps7e0705ce.jpg friend of mine found this at his place and gave it to me. brand new 11 year old swatch watch. sorry. this is just the online info. I can put a picture us if you guys really want. but I'm sure no one cares. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyjazz 0 Posted February 27, 2014 I have the Swatch Rotor by Arnaldo Pomodoro. Shop in Glasgow City Centre had 4 of them, you had to put your name in a raffle, then if your name came up you had the chance to buy it. I was first out of the raffle. Only 700 were made. Ugly looking thing, it has never been worn, still has its plastic cover on the face, in original tin, in original blue box, original receipt etc. Must be about 20 years old now, bought it to keep as a small investment to sell in the future if it ever goes up in value.

seanjames 2 Posted February 27, 2014 I bought my daughter a Swatch for her sixteenth in December, it's a nice 21j thingy She has gone all watch snobby on both me and the wife as I'm now only running REPS and the wife has a quartz GEN Seamaster, so she claims its the only real watch in the house!
