Interesting video, especially between 1:14 and 1:19. Unibody case. Does this mean that the movement could be replaced if defective at some point in the future by pulling the crown and popping the crystal? Is that molded-in lug what stops the movement from rotating in the case?
In fact, seeing all the hype and publicity would make me want to limit stock even if I had originally planned on a massive launch and widespread distribution. My strategy moving forward would be to have a small in-select-store restock and open up online availability (again with small supply). Make a big announcement that the MoonSwatches are back and accessible to everyone that wants one as long as supplies last, get a bunch of news coverage, have them sell out in minutes, then retire the majority of the collection citing production difficulties/costs/whatever and unanticipated demand. I'd allow maybe one or two products to continue (Moon and Earth, perhaps) and discontinue the rest to maintain exclusivity. But that’s just me.
A alexxsThat would be the way to continue keeping them in the spotlight. The hype appears to have died down a bit, at least according to Google Trends (I added Rolex as sort of a stable, generic, watch reference - they got a kick in searches as well with the Moonswatch launch).

If you check the Swatch web site you’ll see the entire MoonSwatch range ready for on-line purchase, except the link to the basket isn’t live yet.
Satisfaction guaranteed, secure online payment, easy return, free delivery.
It looks like they’re almost ready to rock ‘n roll . . .
Why do you have a problem with someone making a comment that you may not agree with? It's my personal observation, this is a comment board after all. Most businesses make boneheaded decisions at one time or another, Swatch cocked this one up. If you feel otherwise, good for you.
That’s the issue I have here, anyone who thinks (and imo rightly so), this release is a negative for Omega, gets shut down 🙁
They say lighten up however is the pro plastic that seem to be over sensitive.

You sound an awful lot like the same people who think that getting criticized is the same thing as being silenced or rather, 'censored'.

I'm concerned that this thread seems to be slowing down ... it may not reach 100 pages without some additional drama.

Perhaps if one buys 3 precious plastic and 4 ladies Swatches, they can be on the wait list for a MoonSwatch- that seems to work for the industry😗.
Last I checked, none of the posts criticizing the watch have been removed. You are still posting your thoughts, so claiming to be shut down is a little excessive...
I see people disagreeing certainly, but not much more than that.
