Swatch expands its 'MoonSwatch' collection with the launch of the 'NEW MISSION TO EARTHPHASE – MOONSHINE GOLD,' a chronograph blending playful design with celestial inspiration. It features a navy Bioceramic case, crown, and pushers, paired with a matching navy rubber strap with a VELCRO® closure and Bioceramic loop.
The "white opaline dial includes recessed subdials and hour markers coated with Grade A Super-LumiNova® (green emission)." At 10 o’clock, the Earth phase indicator displays oceans that glow blue under UV light. Below it, Snoopy and Woodstock appear on the Moon, with a hidden UV-reactive message. The 2 o’clock subdial on the other hand, presents a moon phase indicator with two full moons in Moonshine™ Gold—one featuring a net-like design referencing the Sturgeon Moon.
The watch also includes an Earth-themed battery cover, OMEGA x Swatch branding, and classic Speedmaster and MoonSwatch elements. Additionally, its "box-shaped biosourced glass, smooth lugs, and Bioceramic finish" enhance both style and storytelling in this limited-edition timepiece.
