I'm 16 years old, no job relying on money from parents and saving it up and I have a passion for watches. I have a decent enough collection (my favourite being a yema rallygraf) which satisfies me but I love the speedmaster. When the moonswatch first came out i went down to London with my dad and that is what originally got me into watches (I was probably around 14-15). When i saw the mission to pluto i fell in love, so i saved ever since that and last summer i finally bought one while on holiday in Italy, I am also a big fan of these snoopy variants. All in all i do not think the moonswatch is as poor as people say, i enjoy mine on the occasions i wear it and i believe that you can only enjoy them if you take them as a fun weekend watch, maybe its bias as it is the watch that got me hooked.

Just great marketing. Some people think they’re getting a cheap omega when in fact they’re getting an expensive swatch

The fool and his money are easily parted 👍😂

Even $150 would be too much for me. Thanks for sharing it. 🙏🏼

My very first watch was a swatch. Bought in 1986. It started my interest in watches at 8 years old. I still have it and it still works.

I think the MoonSwatch would be a great and fun purchase if it were under $100. They look cool and I absolutely love Snoopy, but I just can't wrap my head around paying those kind of prices for a disposable plastic watch no matter what branding is on the dial.

I just knew Mrs MWC would like it… a sense of inevitability… 😂😂

If you think the watch strap is a bit crap, it's because it's made from the landing module loo roll.

Well done to Swatch for rejuvenating the brand, but not for me, cheap tat. Would rather have a Citizen Tsuyosa, Promaster or any number of Seiko, Casio or micro brands such as Dan Henry etc...

I First discovered your Channel today. And i Must say i really Like your Style! Great Video, Bad Watch

Soon to be available on eBay at +300%. A stroke of marketing genius Mr Hayek 👏🏻👏🏻

Thanks for taking one for the team. We owe you one !

Just got an omega x swatch last week, just to get the dial & movement, to put it in a stainless steel case with sapphire crystal. Best decision ever!

sorry their just not for me , g shock etc better value and tougher

Brilliant. Your review, not the watch. You nailed it!

I pick up the Mercury one and the Sun one for my wife last week . Over priced , watches but fun and I do enjoy wearing it. It not an everyday watch but I have over 40 watches in the collection so none are everyday for me. Great fun watch and to be enjoyed . Just think of it for what it is !

I think the MoonSwatch is a lot of fun, they’ve got so many colourways and they are a great example of how to create a product that didn’t exist before but enthusiasts can’t get enough of! And this Snoopy Moonphase is no exception! That being said, the MoonSwatch isn’t for me. As you said, they are considerably overpriced for what they are. They would need to be sub £100 for me to even consider one and even then it would be a novelty purchase. Awesome show as ever MWC!

Yep, can confirm, I mainly bought the standard Mission to the Moon because of FOMO and wanting to be "in the club". And because I like space stuff and can't afford the original. But it was for retail, in a Swatch shop, a year after it came out. Don't feed the flippers and the scalpers if you want one. For a while I didn't wear it much, got tired of the hype train, but since I put it on a NATO strap it finds it way onto my wrist every now and then.

I like it. Gonna buy it as soon as I have the opportunity. Dont care about specs and about what critics say, i just like it and I know I'm gonna enjoy it.

love that Seiko 5 on your wrist

I love mine. Have had various including this one. The case shape, the fun factor, wearable too. The Blancpain is good as a bit more robust!

Funny you say “no more MoonSwatch” … I find myself drawn to it 😵‍💫 And now, with this all-white version, I feel “the pull” even more 😩 I haven’t acquired one yet but I feel you have to look at this type of watch differently, in a more light hearted kind of way. Thanks for sharing my friend! Another great show!

MoonSwatch, the gift that just keeps on giving. :)

This is my favorite one. Might have to get it when I go to NYC.

Got a Jupiter in me watchbox that I take out 2-3 times a week to time my workouts/runs. Wears beautifully on a black perlon strap.

I bought the Mission to Mars for the missus, which is stunning on a white tropical strap. But these are even better! I might look at the white one.

I recently got Mission on Earth and Mission to Pluto. I love them in all honesty.

Love these videos

The moonswatch worked on me....3 months later I got a speedmaster racing 40mm and seamaster 300m. Brilliant

As a fan of the Speedmaster I bought one of these (the Moon one) just to see what the fuss was about. I thoroughly endorse everything you say about cheapness, lightness and price. I would be interested in your take on the Blancpain/Swatch collaboration. Still “bio ceramic”(😅) but with a genuine, albeit stripped down, automatic movement.

That's a cool "once in a blue moon" deal. I like it

...love the timex reference to snoopy 😂😂

I much preferred the snoopy seiko pieces

These things are utter junk, Swatch must be doubled up in laughter at the number of people that will buy a plastic watch worth £30 for £240. Nice work if you can get it.

Great video. Really made me laugh😂 Thank you

Great one Russ.

"Swatch has finally made enough bio-ceramic to make their own moon" caught me off-guard 🤣

Catching Speedy vibes at a twentieth part of the price of the original, being an authentic fun watch (no one could understand it otherwise) that makes me smile each time I look at it (Mission on Earth)… worth it for me. I’ve had swatches for decades and I still wear them at a reasonable state of conservation. The key is to not take it to seriously. 😝😉

What watch are you wearing in this video ? Is it the SRPK17K1 ?

Congratulations on your channel content. I subscribed to your channel because you had previously presented watches with good quality of manufacture and an affordable price for the common consumer. The watches on display today are beyond the expectations of the average consumer and I find them extremely expensive.I would like if you could make videos like you used to again so we can shop and I don't think I will ever be able to raise a little money to buy an expensive watch Thanks much for your time be well always😊

I like this watch ... but now that you've shown us the black version, I can't wait to see that one!!! Who doesn't love Snoopy?!

Moonswatch is a Toy watch. Best watch in this price range is the Bulova Lunar pilot. Fit and finish is nice and could be an heirloom piece.

Moon and Jupiter here. I really like them. I believe the plastic fantastic bio ceramic stuff will stand the test of time…

Is the best watch ever! Super comfortable, reliable, cool and cheap!

Pretty content with my Seiko 5 Snoopy--it's not made of cheap plastic (er..."bioceramic", its movement is serviceable, the strap won't fall apart in your hands, and in 10 years time, it'll still be reliably ticking away when this thing is keeping the earth warm in a landfill.

I opted to spend a little more to get a Studio Underd0g watch

Yes it's a toy, I got the Jupiter and I'm afraid to wear it. crasy

I will locking for a Agat Russian Dive watch Titanium 😊

Been waiting for this one. Despite all the press I really want to like these. 😊

Get the Pagani speedmaster. Cheaper, better and way nicer to look at

great episode, so funny. and is that a back to the future Pepsi bottle ?

Spaaaace Juuuunk! Smeeeeg! ❤❤

I love omega and love speedys and most of my collection are watches owned by swatch group but I just couldn't ever understand the hype or price for a plastic watch that is known to break easily BUT the Blancpain 50 fathoms swatch I love but I guess the fact its automatic even if it is a system 51 makes a big difference to me🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤣

White watches I only wear in the summer with a T-shirt on.

Everything from the 80's and 90's has made a comeback in some way or another. It's a bit surprising to me that Swatch didn't take advantage of that trend and bring back their retro watches that were so popular from that era with the transparent cases and straps and wild designs. That would've been better than a moonswatch. In my humble opinion.

Better value in the same look stainless steel, Seiko VK movement Pagani versions ... For about half the price ... Time for Mr. Pagani to celebrate 🎉.

Honestly, I think the skmei 1584 70th anniversary snoopy watch has better build quality. The moonswatches look like a cheap toy version of a speedy, but if someone wants to spend $200 on a watch that looks like it came out of a cereal box its their money.

I love Snoopy but I prefer him on my much more durable and affordable Timex. Thanks for the great review though. 😊

Swatch needs to use a sturdier composite like fibershell. The JCrewxMarathon Navigator is both a collab, a celebration of Marathon and a loose homage to the old Benrus Type 1 all in a somewhat robust package. Swatch could use a more durable material. The wife likes it!

I would buy that watch if it were no more than 80 bucks. In a heartbeat. I’m not paying what they’re asking for.

I prefer that Seiko you're wearing.

These are ok imo, If you have the cash to spend and want it then any watch is a good buy. The hate these things get started to be a bit too much in my opinion.

MWC, excellent vid as usual, despite what the wife says. I have the ultimate in patience. I am waiting for the bottom to drop out...maybe even for the point when the Moonswatch use is even considered nerdy. That is when I will swoop in and by my baby Moonswatch for a mere $99.99 (USD). I am a watch hero.

Its good you give the missus a look , women have a way of separating the chaff from the hay so to speak that we blokes dont always have :) .

To be fair, the not alligned chrono-hand is actually a good replica of the original Speedmaster Moonwatch... mine also does not have aligned hands...

I came here just to hear him talk shit on it. lol

“Cheap, cereal box toys” hits the nail on the head! Swatch has always been marketed to kids/ teens. If you look at it from that perspective, they’re fine! They don’t have to be super-high quality because they’re meant to be relatively disposable.

I think they would be better value if they came in a box of Captain Crunch cereal.

The Pagani "SpeedChina" is a amazing deal for the money, got one and it's great. But I gave in to temptation and just bought a Mission to the Moon, it's on its way here. I figure getting a genuinely Omega branded watch for the money was worth a try. Hope I don't get grafted on it and it lasts for a few years at least.

Loved this review... where is snoopy?😅

If I have to buy a plastic watch, I'll go with Casio. Still can't understand what that watch is! Not Omega, not Swatch, no mechanical movement, what the hell

If they won't fit sapphire or align the hands properly at the price may as well get a Seiko

Id like to admit to all and sundry that I for one have NOT bought one of these Moon Swatches. Thank you for your understanding.

So much hate for something meant to be fun and silly. They are great for what they are.

I’d only ever consider one of these to just stick in a cupboard and hope it’d be worth something one day !!

bought a mercury added a nato strap and loved it so went and bought the omega, guess what.... I still wear the swatch more.

You were lucky to get it at that price. I've seen a few chancers asking over 1k🤣! I love Snoopy, but if i want a Snoopy watch, i'll go for the Seiko Snoopy editions that you can still get for about £325, bat at least it's a real watch with a real mvmt! Well done, that mad man!

i love your reviews ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

loved it!

I actually love it! I’m kidding. It’s crap. But if someone likes it, I’m actually glad and hope they enjoy it. But I can literally rattle off 50 watches off the top of my head I would buy before this one for the money. Thanks as always for the entertaining review!

As a big fan of the original Speedmaster, I got me a Moonswatch last year when coming along a swatch store. Long story short: The glass was so poor, that it was totally scratched two days later. Props to swatch for taking care and sending me a new watch, but I sold it right away. I'm still liking the design and the idea, but the finished product is just not worth the price tag.

Pagani Design Mission to Alaska is pretty good LOL. Not too fond of the Chinese brand but that design is pretty decent build.

The Moon - Bin is 100% compostable after the warranty period expires🤣

I think they’re really fashionable and I’d want one if they weren’t so much

Sonoopy it's a Beagle? I didn't know that😂

i wonder if someone gonna start modding these with metal body and better band, while retaining dial and mechanism

🤣"The wife , what does she know of it " 🤣🤣🤣

I always appreciate Archie Luxury’s son’s opinion on the matter!

I wasn't really into watches until I got my Earth MoonSwatch. The minute they announced the first collection I was stunned honestly, I immediately wanted one of these even though it was clear it was plastic. Before buying them, I only had my Casio calculator watch as a daily and that was it, but now I have 7 watches in my watch case. The real Omega Speedmaster is not a watch I would ever buy even if I had the money, I just can't justify that purchase, but it is a design I like the most in watches. So yeah, I realize it's a toy and it's overpriced and it's stupid, I still love my MoonSwatch because it looks good to me, it has a personal meaning (two actually) and it led to getting into this hobby.

Mate they are €300 a speedmaster professional is €9000!! Its all relative. Omega on the dial and design is worth the price tag

I encountered one in the wild on the wrist of a co worker. I was interested until I held it. Honestly it just felt like an over priced toy.

Hold the phone! Am I the last person to know about SwatchPay?!! Putting an NFC chip in a watch is really cool. [I live in the States and we are the last people to ever embrace technology. Remember sealed headlight? We didn’t get those until the mid-80s, long after Europe had them.]

Swatch still don't have any official stores in Sweden, so I would say the sale is slow over here

I have had my Victorinox INOX Titanium for going on two 2yrs now. Still haven't decided on my second watch. I have no intention of adding one of these.

good video..

If these were free with a box of cornflakes I’d still buy my porridge!

woops..Reycycled RUBBISH..All of em.

I think its great

Not that bad a markup when you consider what you're actually geting for $3K Swiss 3 handers. It's ceratinly not worth $350 but the resale has been incredibly solid. I rarely see one sell below retail on Ebey. theres a strong market for it both new (see the long lines at Swatch store) and used. As far as the watch itself, I mean how more costly is it to make a Swiss G10 (if that's what theyre' using) vs. a 3 hand Swiss ETA, Sellita or Kenissi mechanical? $3,500 worth? I'm going to guess it's probably less than $50 difference. Then you your case, crystal and I know for sure those aren't costing anyone anything near a $1,000 to make at retail. Point is complaining about the price while going along with what we are asked to pay for off the shelf Swiss mechanical movements is bit strange.

I love my Mercury edition, just the glass is a let-down for the price. It scratches up really easily.
