Who has an automatic watch?

A Speedmaster is on my 'someday' list. Gonna have to look at this Swatch collab now. Haven't seen that yet.

I'd love a Speedmaster. I'm even considering buying that stupid Swatch collab Speedmaster once they get into normal stock. Actually, scratch that. I'm guaranteed going to buy one of those.

Lol, I hadn’t heard of those, and the adds are making me laugh! Also I really wish I still had all those 80s era swatch watches I had as a kid!

Just looked at the Swatch x Omega collab. Yeah, I'll be buying one of those also. That's one of the best collab's I've seen. They put some effort into it, not just slap a name on it.

They seem to all be quartz. I'll pass because of that. Only $260 though so probably a good deal for someone.

Fair enough. I was a little disappointed in that also. But that was before I saw the price. At that price point, I don't expect an automatic, at least not a heirloom quality one. So I'll take the quartz movement. It is a Swatch after all, not an actual Speedmaster. But I like the designs and the thought and effort put into it. I personally won't be going for the brightly colored models, but Mercury, Moon, Jupiter, and Saturn are all ones I would consider.

With how fast they are selling, I am surprised the Swatch Group doesn't make a model with an ETA 7750 movement. It lends itself perfectly to this watch. I think with the 7750 and a display back they could easily get $2500 for it.

Dang it! Now I’m really upset about tossing all my old Swatch Watches.. I remember owning the Keith Haring Swatch Watch Modele Avec Personnages… if I still had all my swatch watches and all my old Star Wars, GI Joe, He man and voltron toys, I could have sold them all today and retired! Ugggggg….

That's a classic! My EDW is my U-Boat Flight Deck but also have a Tissot Auto. My quartz watches are a couple Seikos, a Bulova, some Casios a fossil or 2 and a Citizen Eco-drive. The Citizen has been sitting on my bedside table for over 10 years and still is working with just whatever sunlight comes in the window. Never misses a beat. I wish this Edox was mine but I'll have to wait for the next sale. Also have my eye on one of the Longines Master collection with retrograde motion.

I don't know enough about watch movement to really comment, but that is exactly the price I was expecting if it had automatic movement.

I've got two Breitling automatics, a super avenger, and super ocean II. The super ocean rarely gets used, the avenger is daily or on a wolf winder when not in use

I have two Breitlings. I dont even know where they are. I just wear my Apple Watch now. I can turn the lights on and off with it. And it gives me a really nice timer for cooking.
