This is currently for sale on eBay for $62.00. I didn't know they even made them any longer.



I don't remember how much the one I had cost back in '84 ?

ETA; checked Google, said average was $30.00, in 1984.

I had the white and blue with red letters and paired it with white esprit mini skirt. I had the high type reebok like that but they also had the same royal blue as the shirt inside and on the sole.

A few years back a buddy of mine bought one at the Houston airport. He had forgot his and we were going to Costa Rica. I'll be damn he wears that thing every time we go on vacation now, calls it his travel watch...and the guy has a couple of Rolex's and and a few other high end watches.

I miss my old swatch watch

YES!!! They need to come back. I always look for it when I go back to my parents house.

The Swatch guard was cool.

This site does make me purchase things occasionally. After reading the thread initially, I did a little shopping at eBay. Just won an “adult” Swatch that I’ll actually wear. Like to get Obtuse1 back in here to tell me I’m stupid.

My purchase

First actual auction I’ve gotten involved in on eBay in years.

Did you have a bow in your hair ? All the girls wore bows when they wore their hair up. Many also wore Jellies with their mini skirts

K-Swiss shoes


Let's see if I can remember, K-Swiss, Kaepa and Tretorn were the common shoes the girls wore with jeans.







and the cheerleaders wore Lotto so they could wear school colors
