In 2020, my wife surprised me with a trip to Las Vegas for my 50th birthday. Amidst the adventures, I couldn’t shake the desire for the elusive Swatch Moonwatch. Despite scouring the city, I couldn’t find it. The prices were exorbitant, and the plastic construction seemed like a far cry from the original Speedmaster. Disheartened, I refused to pay a premium just for the Omega name.

Years later, we returned to Vegas for some relaxation. Amidst the concerts and football games, I couldn’t resist another shot at finding the Moonwatch. To my surprise, tucked away in the New York New York hotel, I stumbled upon a store with a few remaining selections. Though tempted by a sleek alternative, the vibrant earth tones of the Moonwatch caught my eye. With its green and blue hues, it felt like the perfect choice to commemorate my lunar pursuit. And so, amidst the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas, I finally obtained my own piece of celestial inspiration.
