EXCLUSIVE: OMEGA & Swatch's New Ostrich-Strap Moonswatches Are Major
OMEGA and Swatch are back at it, dropping more Moonswatches exclusively at London-based retailer Harvey Nichols.
OMEGA and Swatch, whose last round of collaborative Moonswatches dropped mid November, have presented their latest wrist bling at Harvey Nichols, as Swatch officially opened its brand-new store on the ground floor of of the luxury Knightsbridge store.
The capsule, which comprises three ostrich-strap Moonswatches, are just what's required for those Moonswatch-starved shoppers, and also a timely release date with Christmas fast approaching.
The watches, which were revealed at the London store on the morning of December 8, are Harvey Nichols Moonswatch exclusives and available in-store for $295 apiece.
Though Swatch's Fifty Fathoms watches back in September proved comparably approachable, the OMEGA Moonswatch collection has been impossible to get since its initial release.
In fact, every drop has been mobbed as would-be customers reach out to every international Swatch store for a chance to get what is effectively a semi-affordable, space-themed Speedmaster watch.
OMEGA and Swatch's Moonswatch endeavours, though, are becoming a pleasant routine as the pair continue to adapt to the immense popularity of the collection.
Last month's Moonswatch restock of the sought-after Mission to Moonshine Gold timepiece came shortly after the issuing of new editions of the limited edition watch in line with timely events.
Harvey Nichols also offered watch lovers another opportunity to get their wrists beneath Swatch's sought-after Blancpain collaboration from earlier this year.
Truth is it'd be nice to see Swatch keep iterating its collaborations beyond Moonswatch, too, but, then again, business has to be pretty darn good on that front. That being the case, it's pretty clear that the Swiss outfit has plenty to be thankful for this holiday season.
