Omega X Swatch Just Launched a New Limited-Edition MoonSwatch Made With 18ct Gold

The black-and-gold model uses recycled Omega parts and 11 grams of Moonshine Gold, with 1,969 numbered pieces sold through an online application.

  • Today, Swatch released the Mission To The Moon 1969, a limited-edition timepiece featuring Omega's 18K Moonshine Gold alloy, with only 1,969 pieces available online.
  • Swatch moved this release online to avoid the retail chaos that consumed in-store launches, including the Swatch Royal Pop in May and the MoonSwatch debut four years ago.
  • Each watch features 11 grams of 18K Moonshine Gold upcycled from leftover Omega parts dating to 1969, with the timepiece retailing for around $620.
  • To secure one of the 1,969 watches, interested buyers must complete a 32-question survey called the Electronic Swatch Timepiece Application, or "ESTA," available on Swatch's website.
  • The watch commemorates the Apollo 11 moon landing on July 21, 1969, continuing the Swatch and Omega collaboration that began in 2022 with space-themed designs.
