From what I can remember, questions that required a specific answer ( ie price of gold in 1969 etc ) I answered correctly. All the other answers are subjective ( no right or wrong answers ) so it might just come down to, do your answers tickle their fancy 😉

I just now looked up the Swatch website for the first time:

"The gold itself carries a remarkable lineage. For this limited edition, we melted down OMEGA spare parts dating back to 1969, transforming them into OMEGA's 18K Moonshine™ Gold."

Well this @#$%@* sucks!

Part of why I didn't apply 😁 I would want to be the "true collector who keeps it", but if ya told me I could get real speedy money for it, I'd have sold it in a New York Minute!

Buuut I also think paying $500 for a plastic quartz watch that can't even have its movement swapped is nuts, so...

Define 'Serviceable'. Change the battery could be serviceable. Swap out the movement for a new movement could be serviceable. Hard to imagine a watchmaker taking apart a movement.
