you can still buy a Swatch
The Galleria in Houston still has a dedicated Swatch store.

I had one. Don’t remember exactly what it looked like. Seems like it was mostly white? That was 40 years ago.
Before I had a Swat h, I had one of these…
… this would have been about 1982 or 83, the original “Dixie” watch. You could push the buttons and it would play Dixie.

A swatch watch with a Coca-Cola shirt was spanish fly back in the day.
To finish out the apparel, tight rolled Levi's 501 acid washed jeans, white K-Swiss shoes, feathered hair and Polo cologne.

Over the past two years or so I've collected all of the Mission to the Planets set, at least the base versions and just added the Mission to Moonphase last month (the Snoopy one). Mission to Mars or Mission to Jupiter are probably my favorites next to the Snoopy.

Yep. I bought one as an adult in Pompeii that was a more “normal” watch. Got my daughter one for Christmas 2 years ago. They’re still pumping them out

Wife still wears a swatch. They’re cool.

I still have my clear one. Also had the Hailey’s Comet one. I wish I could find it!

I had a couple when I was young and then didn't buy any for decades. I bought several when the Sistem 51 movement came out and stored a couple away for the sake of history and gave the rest away after a year or so. We have been collecting some of the Swatch x Omega MoonSwatch watches and I have a couple of the Swatch x Blancpain Scubas. I have several more on my bench to convert to metal cases. This is most of them.

I'm not sure if this was the exact one, but it was something like this..
Cool as shite at the time, or so I thought, but I'm completely judging myself right now..

I did for sure but I don’t really remember the exact one as I was pretty young.

nope nor did I have Jams, parachute pants
I think those came out a couple of years later, more like '88.
The Girbauds & Guess? jeans were totally in.

Had this same one, about 1984
Those definitely were in style in 1984
I did have a pair of black ones like these
How about the Glacier Glasses, I didn't have them but they were popular
had all 3 colors
Parachute pants weren't worn w/o these
Or Dexter boots similar to this brand
All the girls had ESPRIT bags and belts
and they looked so good in the Guess jeans
they wore them well with these
Seems like yesterday !
