If you think the craze for the MoonSwatch has died down, think again. With the new Mission to the Moonphase MoonSwatch, OMEGA and Swatch are back with a fresh iteration of their much-hyped collaborative model. But this time around, the watch features something a little different as Snoopy also makes an appearance on the dial.
Dressed in all-white, the Mission to the Moonphase timepiece features a matte, tonal look with all embellishments coming in a contrasting black hue. Snoopy, the widely-loved beagle character, alongside his buddy, Woodstock can be spotted in the moon phase indicator on the upper right sub-register. A “secret” message inscribed with lume is implemented onto the moon phase mask, which can only be revealed in low-light environments.
Another noteworthy highlight of this new timepiece is its functionality. While all MoonSwatches are modeled after OMEGA’s emblematic Speedmaster, all former iterations have featured only a chronograph complication. The Mission to the Moonphase, as its name indicates, is a reference equipped with a moonphase display, making it the first of its kind to integrate a moonphase function into a chronograph.
Echoing its comic-like aesthetic, the moon imprint on the caseback is reimagined using the same style, while “MISSION TO THE MOON” lettering encircles around it. Set to retail for $310 USD, the new MoonSwatch is complete with a matching velcro strap and will be available to shop via select Swatch stores from March 26.
