Very nice watch! I love the face! I see it says shock proof - is this watch supposed to be like a G-Shock type watch?
No, definitely not like a G-Shock. Its a vintage (with shock proof Jewels) mechanical movement put in a new (fake?/not original) case with a new face (fake?/not original) and sold cheap from India. It came with a leather band that is too small for me so I threw a vintage expandable metal bracelet on it until I order a new band.
Well I think it looks sweet my friend! Really sharp - that blue the way it reflects kinda looks like a pool - nice grab!
Thanks, yep I agree, the light shimmers off the face nicely in the sunlight.
Some are worried it will be a flipper type of sale which in large part is true in the beginning with the limited release in select stores. However, Swatch did indicated when inquired, that they would be available online at some point….. When that is who knows
We don't have a swatch store near us...
I know when you guys go to the Cadre Con next month there is a store in Vegas that you guys could possibly be able to get them @
New York Casino
3790 South Las Vegas Blvd
89109 Las Vegas
I mean where I am it would be as convenient for me to go either to the Miami store or the 5th Ave New York store. They are both about the same distance from me.... I guess I wont be going to a Swatch store to get one and would have to wait till they go online......
Today:
Finally make it to Topper’s yesterday because my Tag battery is already dead. Found out they don’t display their used watches, you have to see them online. But I also realized pictures don’t do the blue face textured Omega Seamaster any justice. 
And what did you buy LOL
Aren’t Swatch Moon watches that were discussed earlier available online?
and so it begins LOL
No. What what I’ve heard they will be at some point. And they aren’t limited. I read some guy was at a store in NY at 6am and there were 300 people in front of him.
In the age of ubiquitous cell phone usage, shouldn’t we call these fashion time bracelets?
To quote Melvin from Doc Hollywood, “There’s always some extra parts when I put it back together. I don’t know why.”
Personally, I think you just need to get some Gorilla Glue - it’ll all work out in the end.
You wouldn’t happen to have taken any pictures as you were disassembling did you? My best guess would be to see what holes and screws line up. Also, Miyota supplies movements for lots of watch makes. they may have a reference site if you can find an id number on the movement.
did you not take pictures like I told you to??
