“For me, the ‘Mission to the Moonphase – Full Moon is the model that [best represents] the cooperation between the brands and the history of the watch. The MoonSwatch itself has always been a playful version of a rather serious watch that is deeply rooted in the history of the Omega brand. This version, for me, brings together Omega’s legacy in space exploration, particularly with the Speedmaster’s iconic role in the Apollo missions, and Swatch’s flair for accessibility and fun. The unique touch of Snoopy, a beloved character associated with the Apollo missions, adds a whimsical yet meaningful element to the watch.
“As I am also a huge fan of the various Silver Snoopy award versions of the Speedmaster, this MoonSwatch offers an attainable option to take part in this important part of Omega’s history. Finally, even if none of that matters to you, with its fully white case and strap, it’s just a great-looking summer watch that never [feels] out of place.”

Mission to the Super Blue Moonphase
“As an Omega Speedmaster owner, I was immediately excited by the release of the MoonSwatch. I think it’s cool that you can change between colors and straps for a fraction of the price of a Speedmaster.
“This August, Swatch released the Super Blue Moonphase. The combination of a blue case with a white dial, blue subdials, and a moonphase complication makes it the best and most beautiful MoonSwatch for me. Have you checked this one out under UV light yet?”
