It does seem that Swatch are milking the MoonSwatch for all it’s worth with yet another subcollection. However, the latest Mission on Earth models are perhaps the coolest additions to the MoonSwatch collection for a while. Although perhaps that’s because they echo some of the Fratello designs created for #Speedytuesday way back in 2022.
The three new Mission on Earth MoonSwatches are an ode to the beauty of the blue planet as seen from space. Celebrating the diverse landscapes and natural phenomena of volcanos, deserts and the aurora borealis with the Lava, Desert and Polar Lights editions respectively.
The Lava variant relies on a black and orange colour scheme, the desert a beige/taupe effect and the Polar Lights uses a turquoise colour complete with an aventurine glass inspired dial effect. All three versions use radial subdials, differentiating them from the original MoonSwatches.
There’s little reason to dive into the specs and technical details of the Mission on Earth watches, as these are largely the same as previous models, such as the recent Snoopy editions. Instead, if you’re a fan, we’re simply going to highlight where these watches can be bought.
The MoonSwatch Mission on Earth variants will go on sale for the price of £240 on June the 15th. As always, they will be available in selected stores globally and for the UK this means you’ll be able to buy it at London Battersea Power Station, Carnaby Street London, Covent Garden London, Harvey Nichols London, Oxford Street London, Bullring Birmingham, Paradise Street Liverpool, 99 Princess Street Edinburgh, Trafford Centre Manchester and Buchanan Galleries Glasgow. As always, it will be a one-watch-per-person-per-day-per-swatch-store policy.
