Not sure if this is greed or stupidity. Probably both.

Definitely both.

Is that for real?

brandrea · 30 March 2022, 02:22 AM

Well they are bioceramic

In the sellers defence, it comes with tight LuLus and essential oils.

Chewbacca · 30 March 2022, 03:11 AM

Who cares about market asking prices. Tell me what the verified unreturned sold price is.

EEpro · 30 March 2022, 03:18 AM

Those are bids though. Not asking prices.

You’re right. Then buyers back off or ghost. It’s been discussed here before.

Agreed. Ebay / Auction prices can be manipulated by scrupulous sellers to create a false sense of value or worth.

s14roller · 30 March 2022, 03:42 AM

I recall people saying they would bid on watches to mess with scalpers. Real sales seem
to be in the $1K range

AdamW · 30 March 2022, 03:58 AM

We have lost our way...

AdamW · 30 March 2022, 04:03 AM

All of these threads should be moved to a Swatch forum. The only thing "Omega" about them is the logo. Pathetic Plastic Pablum.

marc12 · 30 March 2022, 04:13 AM

do people not realize these are production models lol

58junior · 30 March 2022, 04:26 AM

How come the Uranus model isn’t brown?

forcinitijp · 30 March 2022, 04:46 AM

On Ebay the sellers who have them for 2000 dollars have more than 30 sales made each and there are several.... am I missing something? soon these plastic wristwatches are going to cost more than a space trip.

Chewbacca · 30 March 2022, 05:04 AM

Just got one for $9 to prove they’re less than $10k

Maxtor · 30 March 2022, 05:05 AM

They are fun at $260 USD.

Not worth more that that for a plastic Swatch with some Omega co-branding. No different than any cheap watch with a licensed cartoon character on it... just licensing.

I predict Swatch will ultimately make as many as they can sell and they will likely be online and readily available within 6 months.

GST15 · 30 March 2022, 05:41 AM

Yea, and now they are facing a possible recall because the colored plastic is leaking onto owners wrists. Great move Omega! Way to increase your brand recognition!

GST15 · 30 March 2022, 05:49 AM

Reports on you tube that coloring from the plastic case is leaking and staining the wrist. Some are suggesting that there may be a recall. Yea, 10K seems about right

GST15 · 30 March 2022, 06:03 AM

Although I thought this release was a big mistake for Omega, I hope that the problem is a minor one for the sake of all those who waited in line to pick up this watch

GST15 · 30 March 2022, 06:21 AM

from watchuseek.com

Might be area of concern

Discussion Starter · #1 · 11 h ago (Edited)

Many concerning reports have appeared about the MoonSwatch in the last few days since the release. The case seems to bleed pigment on the skin.

Could this be a health risk issue? The blue dye is mixed with the bioceramic resin which the case is made off. Bioceramic is a mix of two-thirds ceramic and one-third bio-derived plastic. The ceramic is made of zirconium dioxide according to the swatch website which already had released a bioceramic watch in 2021.

Meaning that the pigment bleeding issue could mean that the skin can soak this up, meaning that it will also soak up the chemicals which the plastic material is made off and this can find its way into your blood system. What are your thoughts?

So a free planet tattoo? Sounds like an even bigger steal.

I'm not sure that's a good price for them. You could get a lot of different G-Shocks in the $150 to $350 range that are far superior in every way.

MrGoat · 30 March 2022, 08:24 AM

If it’s TPG selling at that price you never know if it’s legit because of what’s included in the sale.
