    Hope so, the scalpers are largely responsible for ruining it for everyone else, although Swatch themselves are partly to blame for the omnishambles of a release and distribution policy.

    Yes but I don’t regret buying the Reduced as it’s got a charm all of its own. The constant availability of the Moonwatch meant it was a banker that was always going to be an option for later when...

    Makes you realise how overpriced Speedmasters are nowadays. When I bought my Speedmaster Reduced new in 1999, the calibre 1861 Moonwatch was £1500 new IIRC and you could expect a discount of at least...

    It looks like Hamilton have learned the lessons from the previous quartz and automatic reissues of the 1970s RAF chronograph and done it properly this time.

    Hi Dave,

    Many thanks for the clear explanation about how the ordering system operates during the short window in which it is open. I must confess that until I had read this I was concerned that...

    I think that just about sums it up. Before the Synchron Military release, Doxa had no intention of reissuing the Army. Synchron have stolen a march on Doxa here and the price differential between the...

    Your observation about potential scalpers tallies with many reports I’ve read from all over the world. It suggests Swatch staff collusion and/or corruption in the supply of these watches to the...

    I wonder if any of the people buying up Eddies stock to be sold on eBay for profit are using online bots? Not sure if this has been discussed before.

    Do you know where on AliExpress? Up to this point I’ve been reluctant to buy stuff from AliExpress due to the apparent lack of buyer protection. However, that was for electronic devices such as an...

    My first thought would be a Grand Seiko, although a Sinn or maybe a Tutima or Damasko would be a giveaway too.

    I’ve seen Ronnie wearing a what looks like a cheap Casio too over the last year or so, although not during the current World Championship. Maybe something to do with his daily running regime?

    That’s good to know thanks. I must admit that the thought of sending a watch to Sinn in Germany, especially now with the need to fill in customs forms has previously put me off buying a UX.

    Another vote for Stowa, although if you like the Nomos Orion, my choice would be the Antea Klassik KS:

    I agree but Swatch have backed themselves into a corner over this. Assuming that they had manufactured enough stock, I think it’s highly likely that the scalpers would use their bots to purchase all...

    I’ve heard from 2 separate sources over the weekend that the MoonSwatch won’t be available online until the end of August or about 6 months from the “non-limited release” last month. Swatch might...

    That is cheap! Mind you so was £599 in the newspaper with full manufacturer warranty. The promotion I saw must have been around or before 2014 when the Eterna PD partnership came to an end.

    Not sure how much the eBay seller was asking, but there was some sort of promotion in one of the national newspapers years ago for the Eterna PD chronograph. I think they were in the region of £600.

    Great review Dave! Really enjoyed reading it and seeing the excellent photographs. I can only hope that we’ll be able to get one when they are released.
