Swatch
While it is a topic, I thought I would ask what people thought of Swatch watches. I have two that are more than 10 years old but I never seem to wear them. They are pre my watch collecting infection, so that might account for that.
Because of the excitement over the new collaboration, I looked up the Swatch page and I do like the look of some of their - many - designs. As a buyer of affordable watches, I am tempted by one or two. Has anyone else got Swatch watches in their collections and do you wear them?

I collect affordable watches and if possible, ones with some history behind them. I like Vostok and have three of their's. I have a one-handed, Luch watch from Belarus and a beautiful, English, Elliot...

I don't have any. But, I just found out about the whole Sistem51 thing, and am super excited to add one to my collection!
I've owned an manual "Irony" and an a automatic chronograph in the past. Good watches for the money.
Been tempted by the Sistem 51 but never pulled the trigger.
Yet.
I have a couple from 15+ years ago (from before I was interested in watches) and I don't wear them. I want to get a sistem 51 but none of the current designs have really sparked my interest. Maybe the X Hackett classic lines.
The only Swatch I have that fell out of rotation, Swatch Irony Automatic Vatel. I'm sure the movement would have lasted me a few more years but I didn't want to risk breaking it 😫

I have a Rolex Datejust, an automic Bulova, and some other fine watches, but also have two Swatches. Some Swatch models are quite nice and also tough.
