The Moonwatch watch, omega X Swatch Version

Omega’s Speedmaster Moonwatch is a legend in itself… This time, the watch that walked on the Moon meets the Swatch revolution, in an innovative and accessible version!

Omega x Swatch: 11 Speedmaster Moonwatch Unreleased.

It is a legendary watch, both for its charismatic profile and its history… Omega’s Speedmaster Moonwatch has been an undeniable icon of watchmaking since 1969. In 2022, the watch house Omega teamed up with the innovative Swatch house to bring to life a collection of 11 new Speedmaster Moonwatch, pop, and above all affordable…

Let’s go back to this very special day in 1969, when in front of millions of viewers, for the first time in human history, a man walked on the moon and it was, indeed, the Speedmaster Omega hanging on astronaut Buzz Aldrin’s wrist.

Before becoming the Moonwatch, the iconic Omega watch was originally called Speedmaster. It was after her journey on the moon, on the wrist of Buzz Aldrin, that she took the name Moonwatch. The epic story of this watch, much sought after for its beauty and history, is revealed here.

Since then, the Speedmaster has known 1001 versions, each more powerful and exceptional! And this time, the icon reinvents itself through the prism of Swatch innovation.

In the already paved way of successful partnerships, Omega x Swatch are also the meeting of two innovative visions, focused on originality!

Synonymous with audacity and impertinence, the watches designed by Swatch, beginning in the 1970s, use innovative materials to carve pure watchmaking artifacts.

The 11 models of the Speedmaster Moonwatch Omega x Swatch, cut from bioceramics, reveal an unprecedented impertinence for such a watchmaking legend.

We do find the asymmetrical case, the emblematic “point-over-ninety” on the tachymetric scale and the Speedmaster’s distinctive counters… But it is Swatch’s own colors that adorn this icon of a definitely contemporary aura!

The 11 models carry the name associated with the color of the planet they aim to explore. The soft pink for “Mission to Venus”, the red for “Mission to Mars”, the blue for “Mission to Neptune”, the beige for “Mission to Jupiter”, the water green for “Mission to Earth”, among others.

Thus, 11 models that merge the DNA of these two houses, to encourage us to look towards the universe! For the curious and aesthetes fascinated by watchmaking, you can wonder around a selection of beautiful books Icon-Icon on the subject.
