Watch Description
Celebrating the summer season and the blue moon of August 19, 2024 this chronograph features a blue Bioceramic case, crown and pushers as well as a blue VELCRO® strap with contrasting light blue topstitching and a blue Bioceramic attachment loop. It has a blue and silver-opaline panda dial with blue hands and hour markers. Unlike the other models in the Bioceramic MoonSwatch Collection, the blue Bioceramic bezel features a pulsometer scale with white markers. This model stands out with its moon phase function, arguably the most poetic of all watch complications. Two oversized blue moons rest against a dark blue moon phase disc, which rotates in the subdial set at 2 o’clock. Under UV light, a secret detail appears on the moon phase mask and disc. A moon with various shades of blue can be seen on the battery cover. All dials in the collection carry the OMEGA X Swatch branding, the iconic Speedmaster logo and the MoonSwatch logo. The box-shaped biosourced glass construction, the etched "S" in the center of the glass referencing the Swatch logo, the fine and sophisticated circular pattern on the dial outer ring and the recessed subdials, the sharp and smooth lugs construction and of course the unique Bioceramic feel are common to all models. The indexes, hour and minute hands and chronograph seconds hand sport Grade A Super-LumiNova® for a perfect glow in the dark. This model is available for purchase only between August 1 and August 19, 2024 and only from 5 pm onward at selected Swatch points of sale worldwide.

### Watch Summary:
The Moonswatch Mission to the Super Blue Moonphase Model SO33N700 is a unique blend of Swatch's playful design ethos and Omega's iconic Speedmaster heritage. This watch is classified under the **Statement/Fashion** style category due to its bold design and collaboration with a prestigious brand. It features a quartz movement, ensuring reliable timekeeping with minimal maintenance. The watch is intended for fashion-forward individuals who appreciate a blend of iconic design and modern aesthetics. Its standout feature is the moonphase complication, which adds a touch of sophistication and intrigue, appealing to those who enjoy celestial themes in their accessories.
### Overall Watch Rating: 6.9/10.0
- **Functions Metric (8.0/10.0)**
The watch offers a moonphase complication, which is a rare feature in this price range, enhancing its functionality. Its quartz movement ensures precise timekeeping, and the watch is designed for everyday wear with basic water resistance.
- **Complications Metric (7.5/10.0)**
The inclusion of a moonphase complication is notable, especially in a fashion-oriented watch, providing a unique feature that sets it apart from typical quartz watches.
- **Dials & Design Metric (7.5/10.0)**
The design is bold and eye-catching, with a distinctive color scheme and playful elements that reflect Swatch's creative approach. The dial's layout is well-executed, though it lacks the artisanal craftsmanship seen in higher-end models.
- **Brand Metric (7.0/10.0)**
Swatch is a well-known brand with a strong presence in the fashion watch market, and its collaboration with Omega adds prestige. However, it does not reach the luxury tier of watchmaking.
- **Versatility Metric (7.0/10.0)**
The watch is versatile for casual and fashion-forward settings but lacks the adaptability for formal or professional environments.
- **Material Metric (6.5/10.0)**
The materials used are standard for Swatch, focusing on lightweight and durable plastics. While practical, they do not offer the luxury feel of higher-end materials.
- **Movement Metric (6.5/10.0)**
The quartz movement is reliable and low-maintenance, but it lacks the complexity and craftsmanship of mechanical movements.
- **History & Innovation Metric (6.0/10.0)**
While the collaboration with Omega is innovative, the watch itself does not contribute significantly to horological history or technological advancement.
- **Rarity Metric (6.0/10.0)**
The watch is widely available, which limits its rarity. However, the unique collaboration and design give it a slight edge in exclusivity.
### Celebrity and Historical Figures:
While no specific celebrities are known to wear the Moonswatch Mission to the Super Blue Moonphase Model SO33N700, Swatch's collaborations with Omega have garnered attention from fashion enthusiasts and collectors alike. The brand's playful and accessible designs have been popular among a wide audience, including those who appreciate the fusion of iconic watchmaking with contemporary style.</p>
