Sweeeeeeet...!!!
They both look very happy with them 
They also picked colours they can change with each other too..!! Very versitile.
I think these are one of the nicest new Swatch watches they've brought out in a long time...I've been after another Swatch for ages then when I saw this it was an instant buy.
Congrats to you and your gorgeous kids.
Yours,
Andy.
My new skeleton.....for fun.....
I was in Manchester today (seeing the Dalai Lama) and I always look in the local watch shops and found this new Swatch..!! I couldn't resist and bought one straight away, they come in a rainbow of colours (yellow, red, blue, white, orange, green, pink and...
So, andy, are you starting a new thema in your collection?
One is ok, two is a thema. :) Very lovely Swatch, my friend. I was thinking about another one, whose name I don't remember, though. Say Hello to THe Dalai Lama! Nicolas.
Good point....
sporty skeletons....good job my dealer does RM..!! But then again that could be a bad thing too :) Or what if JLC do a nice Extreme Lab 3...it's difficult to think of many sports watches with the quality of an AP..? The thema continues....
Both are nice ...
but only one shows the right time :-) Nice addition to your collection, congrats! Oliver
Reliable Swatch. I purchased one 19 years ago a Swatch Chrono
in an airplane flying JAL to Canada for university studies. My so called luxury quartz then. It lasted about 6 years, not bad I guess.
Same here...
I got a chrono about 20ish years ago and still have it...it needs a battery but I'm sure it still works. I remeber thinking it was expensive at the time but it was probably about £45...LOL. Andy.
LOL, it could have cost the same then and I thought I had just
splurged too much on a wristwatch before even starting and finishing higher education. I was damned. To think back, the dosh I spent 4 years on Budweisers and Canadian beers for straight 4 years could have afforded me 2 nice Submariners or maybe a Sub and...
Cool Andy!
I like the domed plexi and also the strap attachment ( very AP) :) A fun watch that brings a smile! cheers fernando
Cool toy.
It looks nice on the wrist. I love Swatch watches, great price and value. The pics with the AP looks fantastics, best of both worlds. Enjoy them. Vte :)
Great fun aren't they...
this was under £50....the coloured ones would be great for a holiday watch as they'll take sand, sun cream, swimming and bashing about during the day. The only poor point is how loud it is..!! I can hear it at the far side of the room at night. Andy.
"just has the edge..."
Well, it is not that loud :-) I hate to sit next to someone in the opera/or in a classical concert, with a swatch on the wrist. It drives me crazy! I leave all my swatches at home, as well :-) Cheers, Oliver
Yes the 15305 is much quieter....
I think I'll leave the swatch downstairs tonight as it almost kept me awake...tik...tik...tik...tik...tik...tik........LOL. I promise I'll bring something nice if we go to the opera :) Yours, Andy.
What a fun watch!
You've inspired me! I've been waiting for SWATCH to come out w/a colorful and affordable skeleton! I'm going to buy 4 of them in different colors! One for all of us (husband, and 2 kids!).
Just for you Eloise.....
All the colours for you to choose from.... Fun and a bargain price :) Let me know what colours you get..!! Andy. ...
the white and black variants look great.
fun watches to have. sort of reminds me of alain silberstein. cheers PAt
thats really funky Andy. i'm surprised its not auto though
regardless of the battery in the back i think its fun and as you know, we all need a fun watch in our collections. best G
As you know they do an auto....
which is all SS so I am tempted to get it just to get a photo next to my AP..!! That is £120 while these are just £47...fun little piece and OK for work as I don't mind getting chemicals on it and bashing it about...LOL. Yes we all need a little fun piece...
i’ve had a lot of...
i’ve had a lot of Swatches and like the Irony range as well as the Scuba range. bomb proof cases. they also do an auto chrono now as well i think. all ETA calibres in their auto’s so £120 isnt much really. as for fun pieces, i have this which i’ve not sho...
i bought a blue canvas...
i bought a blue canvas one from timefactors which suits it well. it also took the original buckle so all is good. best Moi
what??? a battery in the back????
hmmmm. . . . .i'm reconsidering getting four of these. . . . maybe just 2?
go for the whole set...
go for the whole set Eloise, let the kids wear them. they’ll love the choice of colours. best Graham
all the colors eh?
I am very tempted. . . . . . My daughter has been thinking about the black, purple, and pink. My son is thinking about indigo, blue-grey, and orange! And we are also incredibly tempted by the green!! Hmmm. . . . . ..
Yep battery i'm afraid....
Swatch do a skeleton auto which I'm considering getting but it's tiny...36 or 38mm...but I might get it just for fun to photograph with my AP. But these are only £47 so 'cheap as chips' as they say..!! Get a pair and see what happens :) Andy.
Andy, i think the...
Andy, i think the standard sized swatch is 36mm. i’ll pm you the website of this specialist. G
i did it!
i bought two for my kids - my son chose the indigo and my daughter the purple. they are both smitten w/the watches! i think i've got them hooked on watches now ;) yes - the skeleton auto is nice - i bought that about 10 years ago - and it's still running!...
Excellent...!!!
Pics please :) :) Really pleased they like them - be cateful with your collection now..!! LOL Yours, Andy.
whoops!
I'm terrible at posting pictures. Here's a picture of the kids proudly showing off their new watches: And here's a close up! ...
Sweeeeeeet...!!!
They both look very happy with them :) They also picked colours they can change with each other too..!! Very versitile. I think these are one of the nicest new Swatch watches they've brought out in a long time...I've been after another Swatch for ages the...
Hey - your pic is the Home page Masthead :o)
Just noticed Andrew has made a post about it :) Andy.
:-)
Just seen... they do one in orange... hmm a possible addition to my collection! Great pickup Andy, gotta have the fun factor. Cheers Andrew
I thought of you when I saw the orange :o)
If only for the fun of it you'll have to get one..!! LOL Andy.
a bit more info from a specialist swatch site
the range is called the 'Laquered' and i quote 'the clockworks of the yellow,orange,red, green and blue-laquered watches all score a random colour combination during production, lending every watch its own unique colour design'. effectively all the wheels...
WOWZAH..I want one!!!! I think we have not this in our island yet.
Man...this is superb. It is never the price, but the intent of design...this is one of the very few swatches that will be super. Rest assured..the entire first edition will be in my box by next week!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!! I would never have known.
Just what I thought when I saw them....
I always pop in the Swatch shop when I'm in Manchester looking for a fun piece but nothing has stood out for ages then I saw this last week and instantly loved it..!! I might get one of the colours to go with it for holidays or just for fun :) Please post...
Every now and then, a watch appears that garners the interest of many on the forum
Previous examples are the Seiko discus and the Longines Legend Diver. Andy, perhaps you've discovered the next one. Strangely, I wouldn't mind one of the green ones. Afterall, its all about fun isn't it? And the price isn't going to break the bank. Regard...
It would be funny if the next GTG had all colours present..!!
Like you say it's just for fun, very practical and cheap as chips..!! Very much a Purist family fun piece :) I also think it is one of Swatches best looking recent pieces...I will have to get another colour though..!! Yours, Andy.
