I think you’d have to see and try one on in person to really know the answer. I didn’t intend on buying one, I just happened to be near the Swatch store and decided to get one. I didn’t have to wait in a long line or pay over msrp. If I wasn’t near the store, I’d never have bought one. It’s really light,makes it feels cheap overall and it ticks obnoxiously loud. But, I still don’t mind wearing it. Maybe I’ll get a real Speedmaster eventually.
I got one as a gift and I love it. As long as you're expecting A Swatch and not an Omega, you should be fine. It can be loud, and change it to a different strap or at least swap the direction of the band so the loop end is on your wrist knuckle.

Eddie Sahakian has one apparently... (the Jupiter)
