At that price point, getting one for the novelty aspect is reasonable.

I just called the galleria and he told me they would have them on the 26th and he expected a line. FCFS. Thats all he knew. Didn't know how many they would get. Its very tempting.
The website is live now... https://www.swatch.com//en-us/bioceramic-moonswatch.html.
Kinda worthless if you can't order it online
I'm betting you'll be able to eventually. They have the order button "locked" on each product page. I bet they open it up after the hype dies down.
Hope so, they're fun.

If the baby decides to get up at 3 Saturday morning I'm loading her in the car and going to the galleria. Those are awesome
I think it's limited to 2 per person. If any of you guys are going and only interested in one, and want to do me a solid, I'll pay for a 2nd one and shipping (and some extra beer money).
So is this just an Omega-branded quartz swatch?
Don't get me wrong, I'd order several right now if I could, they look awesome.
But not sure it's the best brand-building exercise for Omega.

I'll try and pick up a few in Dallas on Saturday.
So many Dallas folks on this thread
I am going to be at the store in Dallas as well. Hoping to pick up one for me and one for a friend who's out of town.

Just like our friend that went from a Fossil to a Rolex....the addiction is real.
My kids will only wear the finest Dora the explorer timex

Swatch owns omega so there's that haha
For $260, I'll get one, most likely the moon, but like the mercury and earth one. Probably get the pink one for my wife. The mars one is cool too.FTAco07 said:

I'd pay someone to get me a Pluto. Or 2nd choice: Earth.
I'm in Cypress/Houston.

If anyone ends up getting these omega swatch watches and wants to flip them for profit let me know.
I've heard it's limit 2 per customer. Has anyone seen anything to that effect in writing?
So my wife is also on board with getting one so he'll, we may have to slog up to the galleria. If anyone else finds out anything about quantities or anything like that let me know. I wonder ifnthere actually will be a line at opening.
I've also offered to buy my wife a rolex several times and she has declined but she's on board here. At least she's cheap.
Yeah, makes sense if you're swatch! These look amazing and I'd have to imagine the secondary market will trade at multiples of list price.FTAC2011 said:Serotonin said:

As far as history, quality and movement Omega matches up every bit with Rolex, but the difference between the two seems to be Rolex's relentless focus on protecting and enhancing their brand. Can you imagine a $260 Rolex-branded quartz?

So what have you heard?
I'm guessing these are going to be selling on ebay for at least a grand about as soon as people start walking out of the stores. I don't see them putting these into unlimited production
I'd love the Neptune or Moon.
I'm in for earth or mercury of anyone wants to grab two!
Mercury and then Neptune for me.
Not sure why they didn't make Uranus the brown one. Seems like a missed opportunity.

No one else mentioning Mars makes me think maybe I've got a shot at one.
probably the one i would get for my wife. not sure if that is a good or bad comment for you.
I think it's the one that is closest to a real model Omega made (other than the moon one). So maybe your wife has good taste.

Scoop & Score.... Gig' Em again!
What a world. This freaking swatch launch may turn in to a date night and hotel for the wife and I and have the kids stay the night at a sitters. Swatch. If you would have told me this at lunch today I would have laughed you out of the room.
Are watch people like sneaker people? Are folks going to be in line at 8am waiting for these things to flip them the next day?
I waited in line for some Jordan golf shoes a couple months ago and I bet at least half of people I saw in line had never touched a golf club
