The “Bioceramic MoonSwatch” collection was born in 2022 as a collection of chronographs with celestial charm from Swatch’s unique innovative perspective, as a homage to the legendary watch “OMEGA Speedmaster Moonwatch” that was the first to reach the surface of the moon. A special collection that inherits the essence of the OMEGA Speedmaster Moonwatch while adding the unique energy of Swatch. We continue to release unique models on an irregular basis, and continue to attract people all over the world while making headlines. Thanks to its innovative approach, it has evolved beyond being a watch to become a lifestyle icon. The collection also features Bioceramic, developed and patented by Swatch, one of the most innovative composite materials in the watchmaking industry, a unique blend of two-thirds ceramics used in luxury watches and one-third bio-based material made from castor oil, which combines a silky matte texture with durability and comfort.
