With all the watches you own, do you think you'll really give wrist time to these?

I bought Mars, Neptune and Mercury from AliEx for around $25USD each. Mars and Neptune are very good. Mercury, they got the black and gray mixed up. Then I found a genuine Jupiter in NYC at retail. To be completely honest. The genuine Swatch is no better than the Chinese copies. If the Chinese would have gotten the shades of black and gray correct on Mercury. I'd say save the money.

@@kewrock These swatch moon watches are all sh1iter$

I got my mars from secondary,i enjoy wearing in summer

@@timeisahumanconstruct9251 Like any other junk we collect. It's getting the item and having it. I have more watches than days in the year. Yet I wear two watches most of the time.

where did you find out 'sales of real Omega Speedy Pro/Moonwatches has increased 50% since the colab release" ?

@@roycedot A video I saw somewhere (not sure) but it was Omega's CEO who was saying it. Not just a report.

It was also published in several newspapers. Not hard to find this. Yes, marketing genius -- Omega Speedmaster sales went up significantly because of this.

Exactly my situation. Love the Speedmaster, but don't want one.

Check out the speedmaster 57 collection theyre less expensive and look stunning in person

Well said, you and me both.

They are also non serviceable

Agreed

They are to blame simply by not making enough and not making it available online. I don’t have a store within 500 miles of me. Which means that I have to go pay some asshole double the price to get it. No thanks. If this was an attempt to make their brick and mortar stores relevant, build more of them.

Well said! I am also here to learn how to invest after listening to a lady on tv talk about the importance of investing and how she made 7 figure in 3 month, somehow the video taught me nothing and left me even more confused, I'm a newbie and I'm open to ideas on how to invest for retirement

Ahmen to that

Great comment -- that really is the best way to think about it a Swatch (with Omega co-branding) -- Swatch and Omega were genius on this one.

Sounds like you didn’t manage to get one 😉

@@m.12m42 the light blue one and Pluto, they are actually more fun that what I thought a year ago 😀

No vaseline.

Well said.

If you don’t mind answering my questions: how does it feel in the wrist and how do the pushers and crown feel?

@@Pex_squirrel Like you just got the watch from a Kinder egg surprise. I ain't even joking.

@@shino8854 XD thanks I guess I’ll just wait for moonswatch 2027

Red one is funky and unique.

you should wind it by pressing your thumb against the top glass and using the side of your index finger on the back side, move your index finger down you are pointing to the ground repeatedly

Actual speedys are really expensive....

just got back from vegas and got the mission to pluto ! they were nice there

I bought the Earth version at the Las Vegas store back in July. It’s not the best watch I own by any means, but it looks cool and I get lots of compliments.

Whether or not its worth of value its personal preference. I have Seiko Automatic which is obviously miles better but then again how many watches out there looks exactly like Omega Speedmasters? None.

What lies and games? What are you talking about?

I don’t understand why people keep complaining it’s plastic. It’s a swatch idk what people expected. You want a omega quality for 250€? Yeah no

@@jozelavric4259 I was caught up with the hype but none became available and I saw the mess of how it was released so quickly lost interest. I then treated myself to a Seiko SSC771P1. Sapphire crystal, Stainless Steel, PCD coated bezel Solar, and if course it's a chronograph. The only thing the moonswatch has over it is it's in-fashion design but that will get old quick. So no, I'm not expecting an Omega but for the price I did way better going with a Seiko than a battery operated, plastic case, plastic glass, Swatch.

@@ChrisJones-hs6nj u are aware that the watch u bought also runs on a battery right? 😂

@@mmisterWhite @DS Not sure what you are saying. It's a solar watch. All electronic items has some sort of battery/capacitor to hold a charge it's just that my solar charged watch never needs that part of the circuitry changed. Is that what you are referring to or are you being more clever than that as you must be the 1st person to ever describe a solar powered watch as running on a battery.

@@ChrisJones-hs6nj you said you rather buy a seiko than a battery powered watch when the seiko you got is also a battery powered watch? 🤔

Oh boy, that would be the next mistake then…

Now already easy to buy..got many stocks

I want to add, I've owned both a speedmaster professional and a speedmaster reverse panda automatic. Ultimately I parted with both and have no regrets.

also curious, and does the strap worse than the others?

There are some automatic seiko 5s right around a 100 bucks, and if you want to go more affordable you could check out the invicta pro diver or san martin (but these are hommages i would try to avoid)

In the world of mechanical watches, "budget" means $500 or less. As @@gideondekker1210 said, Seiko makes some wonderful watches in the $100 to $500 range, as does its sister company Orient. And if you are OK with owning a cheap knockoff of a more expensive watch, the Invicta Pro Diver can't be beat, as it looks and functions just like a Rolex Submariner. There are also many, many small watch companies that manufacture watches in batches of only a few hundred or a few thousand, so you can only buy them for like a week every year. But if you're patient or lucky enough to do that, you could get a fantastic watch with features that rival other watches twice the price. They call those companies "micro brands". I'm wearing a micro brand watch right now, the Phoibos Wave Master, and I love it. There are also lots of reputable websites that sell used watches, and they check them to make sure they're not fake before they sell them to you. Jomashop is a good one. I'd recommend taking a look at a bunch of budget watches, seeing what you like, and buying what you can afford, when you're ready. I hope this helps, and I hope you love your first mechanical watch!

I own a Timex Marlin, which is a classically styled vintage-inspired handwound watch that you can pick up for 100-140 dollars. I enjoy it a lot and it looks nice even next to my watches that cost multiple thousands of dollars. Can’t go wrong! Alternatively have a look at Seagull 1963 chronograph. Beautiful (chinese) movement that you can see through the caseback if you pick the open caseback option!

Hamilton makes fantastic mechanical watches starting around $300. Baltic has beautiful designs starting at about $600 but they often use Chinese movements...

@@thecianinator that's extremely helpful thank you

Seiko, Hamilton and Tissot are some good brands I recommend to check when looking for entry level luxury. They are generally well made and offer a wide selection and you can trust the brand enough that you pay for quality.

@@canadious6933 thank you so much man I've been thinking to get myself a Seiko presage automatic

Swatch movement with Omega co-branding. It's 250.-

@@SwissWatchGang Why would Omega give up its brand significance and share it with Swatch on a plastic body and a non Omega movement? At least when Rolex made Tudor they kept some of the quality and specialness but in a more affordable package!

@@drwatson1234 To cater to the young demographic. People in their teens and 20s -- buy this watch -- and later down the road they maybe pick up a real Omega. Think of it as a Swatch (with Omega branding).

What movement? They have nothing inside. Crap watches

Late on this but screen protectors exist you know 😂

Basically 😂

@@samueldavila2156 Nope.

I did. I can show you, I wish Omega or Swatch sent me these, unfortunately I don't work with them.

I bet you do

We know who to blame - Nick Hayek.

or just get a Timex for 1/4-1/2 the price. $250+ for a watch where the hands don't line up on the markers is a bad price, imo

Why Not Buying a pagani Design PD 1701 for less than half the Price, Seiko Driven Quarz /Mechanical Calibre and High Quality with a Price of about 100 bucks? 139g of weight instead of cheap 39g of new named plastic „bioceramic“ case.. have a Look in KZfaq - you will be impressed After buying that one instead being an idiot having that overpriced plastic junk

if you are grabbing for attention, maybe look for something else than watches…

@@iseeq72 I do not believe their comment was stating a need for attention, just that of all the fancy, luxurious watches they own, it's the Moonswatch that gets the attention.

Do you still feel it's worth it now? I also own higher end watches like Rolex, Omega, Grand Seiko, but would not be caught dead buying this for over retail much less for 1000.

@@dennischen8887 yea, it does, it's about the experience, once in a lifetime thing, can't be measured with money 😄

btw I bought a Sun at retail after the hype subsided 😌

The stains on your wrist is the best part of the models.

My brother got me one for Xmas today it’s pretty cool not sure where he found it.

@@tylermiller214 probably aliexpress or dhgate lmao

Who?

hows the strap, mine is different than others, and hows the lumi?
