Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners find the Swatch MISSION TO THE MOONPHASE - NEW MOON likable, with one owner noting the deeper black dial, black lume, and white outlined indices are fantastic. The watch features a 42mm Bioceramic case and a unique Earth phase indicator that rotates in reverse to show Earth's phases as viewed from the moon. Reviewers praise its stealthy all-black look and unique moonphase display orientation. The price is $325. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Swatch MISSION TO THE MOONPHASE - NEW MOON highly for its fun, unique complication and stealthy all-black aesthetic.
The Swatch MoonSwatch Mission to Earthphase is praised for its visually appealing combined earth and moon phase display and its novel patented earth phase complication, offering lighthearted astronomical fun. Owners note its cool factor and the ability to calibrate the moon and earth phase display via the Swatch website. The 42mm Bioceramic case is presented in gray with a grainy dial texture. Some owners find the stock strap to feel awful, while others praise an upgraded strap. One owner reported the 12-hour chronograph function only measures up to one hour, and the light gray case is described as looking plastic-y. The battery cover is considered atrocious and less watertight than Swatch's original design. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Swatch MoonSwatch Mission to Earthphase highly for its unique earth phase complication and fun astronomical display.
