I really want a crazy color, but that Mercury is pretty great too.

Are these now available in swatch shops? Or is it scalpers only until more stock is around?

I figured if I could only get one then I should get the one that I could wear most often. But if/when they become more available, I'd really like a blue or red. Crazy colors are kind of the point, imo.

Are these now available in swatch shops? Or is it scalpers only until more stock is around?

Maybe? See the Instagram comment from Swatch below. I called my local shop and they said no restock for another 2-3 weeks but YMMV.

I’d noticed in the early press photos, but now also the forum member’s “real” watch photos here, the following little tidbit on the dial:

Looking around, apparently this “Swatch AG XXXX” appears to be on all swatch dials, the year indicated always (?) preceding the year of model release.

“Swatch AG” is the technical designation of parent company “Swatch Group.”

Seems that the parent company, Swatch AG, maintains ownership of all Swatch (watch) intellectual property, including the website info.

Whereas Omega separately maintains/owns its intellectual property.

Even though there is apparently a
swatch store at Dulles airport, the closest to the mid-Atlantic that is carrying them seems to be New York.
Hope they make good on the available online to everyone- attitude.

I have low expectations but I am checking it daily just in case they slip it in early!
But go on swatch.com, and see the placeholder already ready, I am just patiently waiting

Is there any way to preload your payment indo and have it saved to streamline the checkout process for speed once it does come online?

Ive poked around, and if there’s a way it seems like it would (if at all) only reveal itself in making a first purchase?

seems like its going to be a race for the history books. jittery fingers and sweaty panic while the site buffers payment lol
