Love the vid just wanted to make one correction to help people with a problem I had. A lot of people are measuring the straps at 22mm but they are actually 20mm. I ordered a few 22mm for mine and they didn’t fit so i had to use 20mm and it’s perfectly. Great video i just don’t want people to make the same mistake I did

[@jimt7292]

I think your review is spot on. i Think the second hand misalignment is just a reminder that this is a plastic watch with a cheap quartz movement. But I do love the collaboration between OMEGA and Swatch. I would definitely buy one at retail, only.

[@bostonskiherbaciarz]

You can see misaligned second hand even in more expensive quartz watches, like Victorinox or Tissot, which are of much better quality compared to Swatch.

[@jimt7292]

@@bostonskiherbaciarz Agreed!

[@Derpeh150]

@@bostonskiherbaciarz Ill say most quartz are very slightly misaligned very rarely as misaligned as the video here but the major difference is that it takes a few mins fix but the the swatch on the other hand is permanent as you can't take it apart without breaking the case. Unfortunately it's the nature of quartz to become misaligned eventually with use, any decent tap/bump to the watch can nudge the movement off Centre very slightly. Only exception to this are those movements which will realign for you based shadow + light which are all 600USD+

[@MrSundress]

You never buy it coz this is limited series what only available in some offline stores. But even is stores they are not in stock anymore, and online they will never be in stock too as swatch says. Better buy a real speedmaster and be cool.

[@Apetro89]

I have seen and owned many quartz watches and its more surprising to see the seconds hand aligned than not. Just picked up mission to mars today in vegas and its a cool watch. On mine, the hand actually aligns which is a nice surprise.

[@bboooobbyy]

Hesalite IS acrylic. Same thing, different names.

[@bigjes]

I just got this watch don’t listen to any haters , the band it comes with is actually sturdy and the specs on the dial are very nice has nice weight to it and is actually extremely light weight , doesn’t look like cheap plastic it’s pretty nice and I think you guys will love it if you go get it.

[@markbyrum4743]

The Mission to Saturn dial reminds me of "Cogsworth" the clock in the animated Beauty and the Beast Disney movie from 1991. I can't not see it anymore. Good vid. Keep at it!

[@rossthompson5470]

Thanks for another spot on review mate. I’m really enjoying your channel every review of yours I’ve seen has been really informative with a good balanced perspective. Nice work and keep them coming ,cheers!

[@joachimhief837]

I saw the "Mission to Mars" I wanted it and got it here in south germany. I love it and now I am thinking of buying "to moon" or "to sun " Love it

[@erikewald7264]

This has all the appeal of a run of the mill G-Shock square, with lower performance, and at triple the cost. That's my take, but y'all have fun. That's what it's all about in the end, right? Sorry, this one's not for me.

[@brenmangood]

Nice review! I'd love to get one of these. I have an affordable watch collection of Seikos, G-Shocks, Citizens, Orients and 1 vintage Elgin. $500 is my most expensive watch. I'd buy two Omega X Swatch MoonSwatches.

[@ichris2011]

I wouldn’t necessarily call the ghost date an issue in this case. You need that position to reset the center chrono hand and the tenth subdial if they get moved out of position. The furthest position (time set) only resets the chronograph minute hand.

[@WatchChris]

Ah very good point. I will mention that in the next video

[@𰽪]

But it's not limited edition they stated it will be restocked

[@Apetro89]

Really good review, im just not sure about the leather band on this watch (or any swatch). IMO these should live on a nato or soft rubber straps. BTW just picked one up today in vegas!

[@j0hn1s00]

I was intrested when it was anounced but the more content I watch on it the more underwhelming it seems especially at that retail price let alone the stupid amounts they sell it for on the secondary market

[@richardwhatley6505]

So the cheap retail price gave you pause on buying, and now other peoples opinion of a cheap watch is giving you more pause.

[@j0hn1s00]

@@richardwhatley6505 Oh I don't think it's cheap at all at msrp I think it is overpriced and not really worth a premium over a regular Swatch because in the end of the day that's what it is

[@Alexander_MD]

what does he mean by biocermaic shroud?

[@watchchimp3102]

I was originally going to try and get one, but I quickly deduced it it was gonna be a cluster truck, so I skipped the launch. Then I figured I'd get one later, but now I'm thinking I'll just skip it and save my money buying a watch that I'd likely never wear! 🤔

[@southernhypecollects3670]

20 or 22mm nato strap? In your previous video you said 20mm

[@gregalonzo747]

My wife and I are on holiday in Vienna, Austria. Here there is an abundance of these watches and it is easy to purchase what you want. There are also no lines. Frankly, I don't that they are overly interested.

[@rolandkern5059]

If your hands are missaligned you can correct it by pulling out the crown and push the chrono pushers.

[@Melqvsxl]

love em all the mars is definitely my favorite. I'm definitely getting at least that 1.. maybe ill trade a 007 for 1 lol

[@boatiediltz881]

Where you buying them online?

[@tancreddehauteville764]

Not for me. I have the limited edition Bulova Lunar and it's fantastic - no contest.

[@danylo4670]

I have the same.... Unlike bioceramic, it's titanium!

[@jono8884]

It drives me nuts when a quartz does not hit the marks......Casio quartz tend to hit right on.

[@allyw7405]

Great review, first review I came across that mentioned the misaligned chrono, it’s the same with my Mars and same with the scuff over protector. Also agree with your views and insight. A++

[@WatchChris]

Hey, thanks very much!

[@michaelsims1160]

You can readjust the position of all the dials pulling the windup knob to half position then hitting the stopwatch buttons.

[@glenntongue7639]

Thanks. Fun review, especially the macro.

[@zox922]

Did anyone ever end up 3d printing a case to go over the watch like the alaska project ?

[@Jaysun1]

I have this one. The only thing that I don't like is that in person, the white dial has a slightly yellow tint to it.

[@neilmartin6397]

You do know that this hyped product will also bring botters? Online stock will be devoured by bots. Not sure it everyone realizes this, since it's never mentioned. Stop saying that this will be available online. This will be difficult to get for retail regardless of this fact.

[@bber45]

That Mars Swatch is so sick. Not to mention I'm saving about $9750 on the actual Omega Speedy Alaska Project Watch. Everybody needs to calm their tits. Yes the hands aren't perfect, cheap Quartz etc...but even our beloved Seiko SKX was off and misaligned. Yet, people still love that watch and I make it part of my rotation.

[@chirpywiggins5796]

Still a 14 Year waiting list here in the UK, I've seen some on Gumtree for 10k

[@el_puma_real]

The Swatch marketing machine has created a 'manufactured scarcity' and has folks standing in long lines for them and being resold on eBay for 3x the MSRP. Wild.

[@ge48421]

I don't think there's enough manufacturing capacity anywhere to meet the initial demand, this was inevitable. They probably sold a couple of hundred thousand watches. Hopefully they will be able to catch up to demand.

[@FabMartiniTube]

Just bought it. It looks cool, but it feels very very cheap.

[@zillsburyy1]

did the red come off on your skin? LOL!!

[@daygon128]

I could see this as a happy meal toy, except happy meal toys don't bleed on your wrist. Seriously guys this is about as insane as paying thousands if not millions for a Pokemon card, or thousands over msrp for a Rolex. The only difference is it's insane to even pay the retail price for this. You are only paying for that name, that's it. The human condition is a fascinating thing. Hate to sound like a hater but I do. I hate it.

[@paddypower5965]

Not for me at all. Would be cool to see Omega on my wrist but maybe one day I'll get a real Omega. But ultimately it doesn't matter that it's not for me. Lots of people seem to like these watches and that's great. I can still collect my Laco's and Zelos etc. That's the great thing, there's always watches for everyone's tastes.

[@alexxxx2413]

Good watch

[@marcusaurelius49]

I’d go with a replacement NATO strap rather than a leather strap.

[@WatchChris]

if i get a moonSwatch i might get an Omega Velcro

[@travisogden9426]

Or Tropic rubber

[@TheeYellowDart]

Not the heaviest watch on Earth, but would feel like the heaviest on Jupiter ;)

[@HistoryNiche]

Is the ticking loud ? Can you take it to bed ?

[@thomaskuhn6541]

I'm so excited, I can't see enough of these.

[@timmcdonald5335]

I'm not sure if anyone has asked this but would these watches actually work on the moon?

[@travisogden9426]

Nope, the moon is 200 Fahrenheit

[@jaada78]

No

[@olivierlegrand8590]

Only the time will tell us if there good watch or just cheap plastic toys, I afraid that after one year the watch will look like crap

[@ahojnazdar3656]

Paying even retail price for such underwhelming piece of plastic crap is nuts. People are nuts....everything's alright then. Cheers!

[@OldSlabsides45]

What pen you got there?

[@georgedelcid5611]

Speed master bliq pen 🤔

[@dannyg6592]

Misaligned chrono hand, lousy strap, pre-scratched low grade acrylic crystal, cheap Swatch quartz movement, non-serviceable and disposable. And people are paying thousands of dollars from flippers for these plastic watches? There is a sucker born every minute...

[@Wongwongwong10000]

It’s a nice watch your being negative on a fun piece. If you can’t afford thousands on a real Omega it’s a pretty cool watch.

[@rockthewatch]

Just like Pokémon. Gotta get them all. 🤣 That one looks great. I think that’s my favorite.

[@Lionheart732]

Just don't pay scalper price!

[@miss2369]

Can you olease show them in other straps?

[@miss2369]

Have you been able to chage straps? Like the eatch but the strap is terrible

[@GugaBahr.]

Waiting for the 5usd Homage from China. With a better straps and with sapphire crystal

[@JaneDoe-gb5pi]

I like this one bc red is my favorite color ☺️

[@gabrielak6858]

Why people weit in line to buy it and later sell more expensive? Whats special about them??

[@cutcorners6005]

Its beautiful but I dont want white plastic. I think mercury looks like the best one.

[@skeelo69]

Chris, throw away ? , ha ha ha , my swatch irony stainless steel from 1995 .... still works perfectly...

[@SonjaFirestarter]

Haha very nice ! I get first comment! 🎻😊

[@tamirdossiea3680]

Wait..... you said "...online". Did these watches release online yet?

[@WatchChris]

no not yet they have been dropping 200 at a time in select stores on select days....

[@Fjuuzz]

Soon. But no one knows exactly when, only rumours until now

[@bmw128racer]

Sad to say, but it's a cheap looking watch. It's not even worth its retail price.

[@georgedelcid5611]

I'd buy it once it restocks. It looks like a $75 watch with a omega stamp for bragging rights...

[@michaelriera6277]

This is the best plastic watch to date. Well second best the Breitling Endurance is better and maybe the Gshock, but you can tell your buddies you own a Speedy with is abomination.

[@male272]

This is the worst mistake the Omega brand could make. It's like Ferrari making a small pick-up to appeal to a specific market that have mullets.

[@bber45]

Except Ferrari makes you buy their shitty cars first and has a huge waitlist. Omega does not and only people who are upset are Watch Snobs. Even the grey market is licking their chops.

[@male272]

@@bber45 I'm not a watch snob. I don't own a watch over $1000. I'm talking about brand prestige. This blurs the line in a way that can only hurt Omega amongst the consumers that seek prestige watches. A good product but ill suited to the brand isn't necessarily good for a brand name...in fact, a shitty product can be put out, and as long as it maintains the perception of the brand, it does little damage to the brand. Who knows...maybe I'll have a 30 year career in Advertising someday. ;)

[@Lamar-wq7jj]

Such a crap piece of plastic.omega prices went down since hahahhaha

[@TheWelwyn21]

Actually they've gone up in price

[@brianpercival1829]

Is this crap broken yet?

[@niggtube4482]

garbage piece of a quartz watch made of PLASTIC. but with the price of 2 HUAWEI WATCH GT

[@alexxxx2413]

Good watch
