The Omega X Swatch or MoonSwatch project, this is the name of the collection, is a co-branding project between two brands icopywatches.com belonging to the same group. For newbies, in fact, the Swatch Group owns the luxury brand Omega and Swatch represents its street brand par excellence, the accessible (once) exclusively plastic watch invented by Mr Hayek and an authentic replica rolex fashion phenomenon in the eighties, such as will remember who lived that era (myself).
The Omega x Swatch project is a collaboration that has brought the philosophy and general characteristics of the Moonwatch to Bioceramic models of the Swiss consumer watchmaking brand. Recently introduced by Swatch, the Bioceramic case is a compound based on ceramic, for two thirds, and a third material deriving from castor oil. It is a proprietary Swatch compound, which is patented.
The characteristics of a MoonSwatch
Swatch has not officially released the specifications of the watch, except that it adopts the Bioceramic case. However, the MoonSwatch is not a "prop" of the original and the main odds confirm this. The Replica Watches UK case measures 42mm and is 13.25mm thick compared to the original Moonwatch's 13.18mm. The distance from handle to handle measures 47.34 mm against the 47.2 mm of the steel version, while the space between the lugs measures 20 mm in both cases. It is proof that the designers have almost faithfully reproduced the Speedmaster's dimensions and the graphics of the dial, with some differences.
The arrangement of the counters betrays the different technical architecture, consisting of a quartz movement with a chronograph function. The arrangement is in fact of the 2-6-10 type instead of the fake rolex classic 3-6-9 and is noticeable at first glance. Not only that, the information available is different from the original.
The glass is clearly made of plastic but replicates the logo hidden in the center; in this case it is possible to observe an "S" instead of the classic symbol "Ω".
