I had a dozen of them and my daughter wore them for awhile. She still has them.

I also have a Members Only jacket in the back of the closet.

Saw them at a higher scale jewelry store in Jamaica a few weeks ago. Talk about bring back some memories. I'd forgotten all about the swatch.

I have 2 that I bought in Barcelona last year. One is a Sistem 51, their first mechanical self winding watch. It has 51 parts, the same number as the original swatch. Pretty neat.

A lot of people don't realize swatch is a huge conglomerate that owns, Blancpain, Breguet, Hamilton, Omega and at least 20 other brands.

Bet you wore them with silk shirts too.


I've seen a few Swatch watches for sale the last year or two. Not surprised. Fashion comes back around. High waisted mom jeans kids are wearing now are from the early 80's. Yoga pants/leggings are just the new leotard. Why not Swatch watches.
