    What are your opinions on the mars watch?I was intrigued by the color scheme on the dial but is it worth the price?Is it a collectible?

    They're hard to sell, plentiful in supply, not to everyone's taste.

    Buy it if you like it, but don't expect to move it on fast, or for a profit...

    See one in person first. The ones I've seen do not seem high quality when you look at the dial. The last one I saw actually had a printing offset error on the sub dials.

    Most people don't find them attractive in pictures but some do. I think they are less attractive in person.

    100% agree... a lot of them look to have been badly printed...

    A friend of mine has one and the sub dials are discoloured after 5 years of wear.

    I had one that I bought cheaply with the intention of using it for a dial swap mod, but then abandoned that idea. While I was able to buy it for significantly less than a standard Moonwatch of the same age & condition it still wasn't easy to get my money back. To be honest, apart from the original Snoopy I'm not too keen on any of the special / limited editions.
