Likely no hope of me finding one. But pretty cool!

I’m passing by the Covent Garden Swatch store on Thursday 28th (these launch on the 26th). No queue, but no chance.

2 hopes of getting 1 of those ..... No Hope and Bob Hope.

It'd be neat to have 1 though. The Oxford Street Swatch a few weeks ago didn't have any stock of the more popular colours so I can't see this being readily available.

Looks very cool. I’ll probably swing by the Battersea store a day or 2 after the release, but with little hope!

I'm with you, looks like a lot of fun. Would switch the strap out for a black equivalent I think.

I’d like one too but not hopeful.

I have the Moon and Pluto. Both are great for the summer, very light and comfortable.

Like others, I’ve switched out straps. The supplied Velcro are awful.

Replacement straps are a must for wearing these!

I like this one too. Snoopy's print on the moon on the back is a killer detail. This might be my favorite version yet. Are these going to be limited? Or do we think in a year or so they will be available on the open market for a small premium? Although I already see a listing on eBay for one of these for $3500 :shock: followed by 2 others for $3200 and $3100. I see listings for all 12 at those prices. A quick eBay perusal of sold items shows just about every color can be had between $350 and $425. Some selling for less than that.

^^^^ Listing them For Sale on eBay is just plain ridiculous, when they are not even available to buy in store yet! :problem: :problem:

As to availability, quoting from the article on Oracle (of) Time - "While it is not a limited edition, there is limited availability with sales of the watch restricted to one per day, per person, per Swatch boutique."

I reckon the Omega OEM strap would be the way to go…

It is after all the snoopy cordura strap. :)

An excellent combination, where the cost of strap and deployant cost more than the watch it is attached to.

Really like this design, but will no doubt be scalped into oblivion!

I was lucky enough to get a Neptune just before Christmas as my mate was passing one of the London shops and managed to grab one for me. I love the colour combo on it and really like the watch for what it is (not because Daniel Craig wore one!)

Agree the strap on these is pretty terrible, but easily fixed.

A nice black strap with some white stitching would look great on this model though.

I lost interest when it became clear rural folk have no chance of buying these watches. There's no point of an expensive trip to London on a probable wold goose chase.
