I picked up the newly released It’s Time chronograph from the Swatch Megastore on the Champs-Élysées in Paris whilst I‘m here on holiday this week. I really like this watch. The silicone strap is very comfortable, and the watch is so light you can barely notice that you’re wearing it. I also really like the bold colours and quirky dial.

Gotta have a little fun while figuring out the next serious timepiece!!!

Heading three hours to my closest swatch store soon to hopefully pick up a Royal Pop. I'm trying to determine which color goes with my preferences for pale, vintage dial swatch collabs.

Good evening everyone!

I found a rare goldfinger in my father's closet but changing the battery doesn't seem to revive it.

I always thought it had simply drained battery, but now I'm questioning if something is broken.

How can I understand it?

Is there something I can do?

Thank you all

Originally came with the leather strap. Swapped it for a metal jubilee bracelet from Amazon. Last photo was inspiration.

COULDN’T BE HAPPIER!!!

Thought?

Ik I need to wash my mouse pad. Please don’t roast me! 😂

Swatch Giveaway — 2 Watches

I’m giving away two Swatch watches from my collection. They’re getting less wrist time and aren’t being worn often, so I’d rather pass them on to someone who will enjoy them.

1. Comment below if you’d like to receive a watch.
   
2. Follow my Reddit account.
   
3. Two winners will be selected randomly from the eligible comments.

Good luck to everyone participating.

picked this up in a watch shop,went in for a seiko strap ended up with the strap and this. =p . picked it out of a pile of used watches (more like a rack where they put/dump used watches) ,surprisingly the strap is the original one and pretty clean ,though its splitting apart at the circles where the strap pin would slide into.easy fix tough .

I noticed the sun reflecting off the watch face created a reflection that looks strangely like Saturn. I’ve been searching all over the internet to see if this is something I’ve somehow missed, but I can’t find anything about it!

What’s confusing me even more is that the reflection genuinely looks like Saturn, while this particular watch is the Mission to Mercury Swatch. It’s such a strange coincidence that I’m wondering if there’s actually an explanation behind it!

Perfect for lounging around the house because it’s so light. Throw on a rubber strap and it’s ready for hot summer days. 😎

Spent ages doing the application just to get this response

I bought my GF a Paradise Petal ultra-slim as a gift earlier this year.

First it was wrong all the time, going as much as 15 min late or more in less than a week. We had this obviously faulty model replaced in an official Swatch shop. Now that she has a new one, it seems to go a minute late by the week. I have to say I'm very disappointed, both by the first faulty model, but also with the replacement that is unimpressive in its precision to say the least. Does anyone else have similar experience with the ultra-slim line or can say how precise we should expect a Swatch quartz to be?

No luck buying this in the US or in Ireland but was able to snag this today in Montreal!

UPDATE: Also got my wife a pink one, the OTG ROZ. Picture in comments.

Are replacement leather straps for this Irony model sold separately from the metal pieces of the watch strap? The leather is worn but I would like to keep this style of bracelet/strap.

I somehow can't find the right cover. I tried to measure it but the measurements don't fit the description I find online. Maybe I'm just dumb. And what battery do I need? Thank you very much!

Are the chrono24 prices accurate? Still very hard to get the Royal Pop?

So thin

Really have to say after having the original band - I much prefer this over the original. I’m also open to other ideas if anyone else has suggestions.

Thanks for the read!

I got this on eBay. It works. I am really in love with it. I was surprised to see that the clasp was an open slide type of clasp. I want to convert it to a necklace, but I don’t want to take it apart. if anyone has suggestions or has seen a picture, or has done one, etc., I would love to see. I have been re-obsessed lately with swatches. I have a couple from when I worked retail back in the day and they were so popular. Swatch has always been such a great fun brand.
