Congratulations - that does look nice! Is the hype/mania comparable to the Moonswatch?

That looks fantastic! Bet it would look amazing on a black integrated rubber strap! Congratulations.

* Update *

Put a Horus rubber strap on the watch today. So far I like it better than the OEM strap.

Hours is giving 25% OFF w/ Code: HNY25.

I put mine on a rubber strap too. The matching NATO straps are actually pretty good quality, I’m just not a fan of them.

Nice pick up! That's my favorite version out of the lineup. It's not a limited release, as someone else had speculated, but right now it's not being sold in all of the Swatch stores. I'm sure it will be available in all of the stores by summer since it's a standard offering.

I read on Hodinkee that the movement is indeed serviceable if anything were to happen outside of the 2 year warranty period. A reader said he was quoted $200 by Swatch for another Sistem51 watch that needed movement service. The watch gets shipped back to Swatch and they disassemble the case and either repair or just replace the whole movement.

I talked to a swatch store, and they said its an 1 day thing and sold out within the hour. Is that true?
