Honest opinion Should I get this Swatch?

Hey there everyone thanks for stopping by I just wanted to know everyones honest opinion. I'm needing a Swatch for the place I work at, and Im heavily debating on a few models I'll first show this one called Fade To Pink (SO29N707)

I like it. Nice pop of color. I will be interested in seeing what else is on your list.

“For the place I work at”… given the logo on the wall and on your shirt I’m guessing that place is the swatch store? 😂 The colors pop well despite the black case. Glad they went bright with the hands, I’d wear it 👍

I'm not sure what your budget is, but if you want to go automatic take a look at this one. Cool blue dial. https://www.swatch.com/en-us/sistem-lake-yis420/YIS420.html

Interesting colors. If you like it go ahead! But IMHO it seems a little big for your wrist.

What is its diameter? And your wrist size?

Swatch site https://prd.swatch.com/fade-to-pink-so29n707/SO29N707.html dont have full specs.

By the way, don't take to much serious other opinions. If you feel good, it doesn't matter what others think. 😉

I can't say if I do or not but perhaps 😉 and ps my camera couldn't quite show it but it's like a transparent turquoise https://www.swatch.com/en-ca/fade-to-pink-so29n707/SO29N707.html

Oh no I definitely agree with you that it's a little bit too big for me wrist but honestly the size smaller seems a little too small for my liking

That is a cool automatic but Id be interested in the System Boreal https://www.swatch.com/en-ca/sistem-boreal-yis401gc/YIS401GC.html

I say if you like it, you should get it. But I do think it looks pretty cool lol

That is an awesome watch. 42mm might be a bit big, but the lug to lug is more important, which I believe is around 50 on that watch. I LOVE the dial though!! Good choice if you want an automatic.

Covid masks still a thing?

I would always go for a classic 34mm size watch, as that is the 80's size. Dark is generally the way to go with these if one is not too flashy, but Swatch does neat color arrangements like this that allow legibility and color without being a peacock.

If I had to wear a Swatch (as opposed to wanting to) I'd just find the cheapest used one around. I don't feel that is what is wanted here though.

·

Sorry I don’t like it. Do you have a second option?

Nah I honestly wear a mask because when working on some watches in the back for some repairs... Some people don't clean them and to say the least I don't want dirt flying in my mouth again

·

That's fair enough, thank you for honest opinion!

I understand completely where you are coming from and honestly yeah I could go with the cheapest one that's probably used but I've been thinking of getting something useful but as well something Id want to wear after work and have a fun doing it

It's all good, I'm planning on making a second post once our shipment comes in to show the second one which I'm thinking about

Happened more than once 🤣... Especially some times where you have to use a rubber blower (trust me it sounds like something else but it isn't) with precision.
