Complete MoonSwatch Guide: The MoonSwatch Timeline

The MoonSwatch Collection, born from the collaboration between Swatch and OMEGA, has redefined the art of storytelling through watches. Drawing inspiration from celestial and terrestrial phenomena, each release blends heritage, craftsmanship, and creative design into a timepiece that captures the imagination of collectors and enthusiasts alike.

The journey began with the original MoonSwatch models, celebrating celestial bodies from the solar system. These iconic watches, with their vibrant colors and intricate details like the "dot over 90" tachymeter scale and glow-in-the-dark Super-LumiNova®, set the stage for the collection's legacy. Building on this success, the MISSION TO THE MOONPHASE series introduced a playful yet sophisticated moon phase complication, featuring Snoopy—a beloved icon tied to human space exploration. The FULL MOON and NEW MOON designs, with their monochromatic palettes, reflect the celestial beauty of lunar phases.

Adding a layer of exclusivity, the MISSION TO THE SUPER BLUE MOONPHASE made a fleeting appearance from August 1 to 19, 2024. Inspired by the rare blue moon, this timepiece radiated mystique and elegance, becoming an instant collector’s treasure. Meanwhile, the MISSION ON EARTH models shifted focus to the natural wonders of our planet, introducing vibrant, exclusive colors that celebrate Earth's beauty as seen from space.

Each release in the MoonSwatch Collection carries the hallmark features of the Speedmaster Moonwatch: biosourced glass construction, recessed subdials, OMEGA X Swatch branding, and the luxurious Bioceramic material. Whether showcasing fiery reds, pastel blues, or earthy greens, these watches embody the spirit of exploration and the marvels of our universe.

The MoonSwatch timeline is a testament to innovation and imagination, blending the allure of space with timeless design. From lunar phases to Earth's vibrant phenomena, each model invites wearers on a journey of discovery, making the collection a true celebration of time and space. As the story continues to unfold, one thing is certain: the MoonSwatch legacy is here to shine for generations to come.
