Do You Want to Sell Your Omega x Swatch Watch?

The Omega x Swatch Speedmaster Moon Swatch generated a lot of attention and buzz in 2022. And at the same time, perhaps a little unexpectedly, it also became one of the most highly sought after designer watches of the year. That is why we buy Omega x Swatch watches.

The result of a truly ingenious and unique collaboration between two titans of watchmaking, it offered a taste of OMEGA’s legendary Speedmaster design at the more accessible Swatch price point.

For many, owning a MoonSwatch was as much about owning this one-of-a-kind watch, as it was a chance to experience a piece of history, as this stunning watch was inspired by the very same timepiece worn by Buzz Aldrin on the moon landing.

The MoonSwatch’s value lies not just in its design lineage, but also in its cultural significance. This is the watch that many believe may have ignited a new wave of interest in affordable luxury watches, as it quickly became a coveted collectable once watch buyers realised just what a desirable piece it was.

If you own one of these watches, you are one of those collectors with a truly wonderful taste in timepieces. But as with everything in life, you wouldn’t be the first who has decided that now is the time to part ways with your watch.

Whether your decision is something as simple as your MoonSwatch no longer aligning with your watch collection, or if you are selling your watch in the hope of using the money to buy something new, whatever your reason for parting ways with your piece of watch history, you need to make sure that you sell to the right buyer.

At Topwatch, we have many years of experience buying and selling luxury timepieces of all kinds, and as such we understand the value as well as the emotional connection associated with owning one of these watches.

Since we are luxury watch collectors ourselves, we’re actively seeking MoonSwatches to add to our curated collection. And instead of selling your watch on some risky online marketplace or a pawn shop that might offer you a price that is way under the true value of the watch, we can assure you that you will get a price that reflects the true worth of your Omega x Swatch, through our open and transparent selling process.

We will guide you through the process if you’re looking for a Omega x Swatch watch buyer in South Africa. Topwatch offers a range of new and pre-owned Omega X Swatch watches for sale in South Africa.

The Omega x Swatch Collaboration

The MoonSwatch wasn’t just a marketing gimmick; it was a meeting of minds between two Swiss watchmaking powerhouses.

Omega, with its rich history in watches, provided the design inspiration behind the Omega x Swatch. Their Speedmaster Moonwatch, famously worn by Buzz Aldrin on the moon landing in 1969, is a cornerstone of watchmaking history and something that regularly comes up in watch blogs.

Swatch, a watchmaker who is well known for its use of innovative materials and for having a playful design spirit, provided affordability and accessibility when the Omega x Swatch was being developed. Swatch’s expertise in bio ceramic materials not only ensured a lightweight and comfortable watch, but it also introduced a sustainable element to the iconic design.

And the result was a watch that celebrated the original Moonwatch’s legacy while offering a fresh, contemporary twist that has certainly attracted stacks of new fans.

Why the MoonSwatch Remains Such a Desirable Timepiece

Those who own the Omega x Swatch watch already know that this is one watch that will be difficult to part ways with. There is so much about this watch that makes it so desirable and while the initial frenzy surrounding the MoonSwatch may have subsided, its appeal remains, for many great reasons.

The MoonSwatch, while an almost total reinvention, has been designed to hold onto the essence of the Speedmaster Moonwatch, a watch that is easily recognised and admired by watch enthusiasts worldwide. Its chronograph functionality and tachymeter scale are in a way a reflection of space exploration, while the asymmetrical case and distinctive subdials offer a unique aesthetic, something that those who want to own something out of this world will really appreciate.

Swatch’s bio ceramic material is another significant factor that makes this watch such an absolutely fantastic thing to own, especially for those who are a little more outdoorsy or rugged in their day to day life. The bio ceramic material is a lightweight and scratch-resistant blend of ceramic and bio-sourced plastic which when used together creates a comfortable wearing experience while being highly durable.

Unlike other luxury watches, this one comes in a range of eleven vibrant colours, which means there’s a MoonSwatch to suit every personality. Each colour pays homage to a celestial body in our solar system, from the fiery red of “Mission to Mars” to the deep blue of “Mission to Uranus.”

The limited availability of the MoonSwatch, particularly during its initial release, and its cultural significance means this is one watch that will hold its value for collectors in the future. Owning a piece of this unique collaboration between two watchmaking giants could prove to be a wise investment.

And should you decide that now is the time to sell your watch, you can trust Topwatch.

To determine the best price, we start by having a close look at the inner mechanisms and the outer condition of the watch, as well as the age of the watch.
