·There’s also a lumed-dial (quartz) PRX to be released in the near future…

·Watched that earlier. Glad I haven't decided to buy this piece of space junk.

·I finally saw one in the wild a few weeks ago. The thing is festooned with oversized Omega logos all over the strap. I've never really liked it but it's clear it's meant for showing off. Yuck

·I’ve got the Uranus and I’ve taken the original step off and have a nice white silicone on it and imo it looks and feels so much better

Has this guy never worn a cheap watch before??
It's a Swatch. It's supposed to be light and fun. That's it's 'raison d'etre'. To think in any way otherwise is to utterly miss the point.
This video comes across like an Etonian being exposed to a local Nisa corner-shop for the first time in his life.
The comments about the bio-ceramic are interesting, but I'm not really surprised that it's not got the integrity of solid titanium....

·I don't agree. He's laying it on thick for comedic effect. But I think there's a serious point in there. That bioceramic seems flakier even than a normal swatch and for the money they're charging (more than a normal swatch), you could get a superb, well made watch instead. There have been lots of reports of Moonswatches breaking (pushers snapping off and the like).
Yes - I've heard one or two bad things about the material. Certainly not up to Swatch's normal standard, which is a shame.

·And that strap. Might as well be made out of cardboard. As he said in the video, if you wear it regularly, you'll be lucky if the watch makes it to the battery change point intact.

·I have two of these. Jupiter and Mars. Love them both. No issues so far. Would buy them again.

·I was tempted but never seen one in the flesh, to consider actually buying.
They look great in most photos or videos, but he’s managed to make them look terrible in that video. Always clever how you can tell extreme ends of a story by clever camera work.

·Having trouble finding the specs on it. It does look pretty tempting in the blue. But looks like it might wear like a Navitimer, i.e. large.
Almost certainly a 40.5mm case - look to the Ocean Star GMT Hodinkee edition for power reserve and such. It's essentially the same watch with a more fun dial
