·If Swatch wants an even bigger grip into the supposedly younger demographics, they should do celebrity endorsements with the hype/street/chic/young celebs.
The like of Ariana/Zendaya/BTS/Blackpink "spotted" on the streets wearing these Moonswatches.

The winning branding combo would probably be one (or more) of those artists with a MoonSwatch on one wrist and a current Moonwatch on the other... buy buy buy! 😉

Half price from scalpers? Thats really interesting, way to go Swatch! Those guys (scalpers) need a slap on the wrist.

Read the listing - the guy is telling people not buy from scalpers, that the watch isn’t limited and that they will be able to buy one.
He’s also thing then not to bid on his listing unless they want to receive a paper clip.

·I really wonder how this notion of 'watches for everyone will work'.
OPTION 1:
They become available from time to time in the Swatch shops in batches of 2-300 watches. In this scenario you will always have to camp in line with thousands of other people that want one.
OPTION 2:
They become available online. In this scenario you will have to face scalper BOTS and people F5 'ing like maniacs. Every batch will sell out in minutes.

Same. Many in the watch world aren’t yet familiar with the idea that depending on Swatch’s online defenses, buyer’s could be better off lining up in person against other humans than attempting to buy online against bots.
I’ve been asking around bot-ers I know and have confirmed that Swatch’s sales platform (salesforce) is an easily bit-able platform and indeed several of them are prepared to hit the site.

·Well I think this shot sold me on this one.
What color would you say the dial is?
It seems to photograph dark in some light...but here it almost looks white. Almost.

·Urgh. What is that, the castor oil wearing off ? 😲
be weary of people looking for clicks to pull sensational stunts
I’m still not aware of anyone else experiencing this in real life (including an owner on this forum)
(In either event, the report is not that the bioceramic is bleeding - which would be impossible - but instead the little earth graphic covering the battery)

·Hey! Just wanted to share our experience. We, my dad and I snagged two Jupiter versions on the 26 th. We queued from 5 am to 1 pm (in Brussels). We might sound stupid/crazy but we finally passed a nice moment discussing with great people!
Here are some pictures of the watches :
Some more pictures :
But still, I hope they will make the watches available widely because they are really fun and I would want to grab another one for myself and for my girlfriend (she absolutely wants the sun edition 😁).
Cheers!

We were in that same line as from 4:30 so you were not far behind us 😀
Enjoy that Jupiter, awesome colour.

When it was our turn were left : Venus, Sun, Earth and Jupiter edition. We were in position 141 and 142 in the queue and apparently the store only had 210 pieces.. and I would say there was at least 2000 people waiting..

·So, I don't know if this is correct, but google says there are something like 3,400 Swatch stores world-wide. If they averaged 150 pieces each, then Swatch sales yesterday were about $128M. Again, google seems to suggest that their typical annual sales have generally been in the $400M range in recent years (just talking about the Swatch brand itself). So nearly 1/3 of last years sales in one day. Are my numbers right? Granted, this is a very small fraction of SwatchGroup's revenue.
