Blending Snoopy’s imaginative universe with celestial innovation, the MISSION TO EARTHPHASE — MOONSHINE GOLD is the latest addition to MoonSwatch Collection that celebrates what happens when imagination takes flight.
Featuring Swatch’s latest earth phase innovation, a moon phase indicator adorned with OMEGA’s Moonshine™ Gold and illustrations from the world of Snoopy, this is an exclusive timepiece not to be missed.
Like all models in the Bioceramic MoonSwatch Collection, MISSION TO EARTHPHASE – MOONSHINE GOLD is crafted using Bioceramic, featuring a distinctive dark navy blue, that was created exclusively for this collection. It also includes many of the iconic features of OMEGA’s legendary Speedmaster Moonwatch, such as the asymmetrical case and distinctive, recessed Speedmaster subdial.
Similar to the moon phases, the earth phases follow a 29.5-day cycle, but in reverse — when there’s a full moon, we see a new earth, and when there’s a new moon, we will find a full earth.
This relationship causes the earth on the earth phase to move counterclockwise, opposite to the direction of the moon on the moon phase indicator.
Beneath the earth phase indicator, you’ll find is an illustration of Snoopy, joined by his ever-loyal friend and frequent co-pilot, Woodstock, alongside a phrase that appears only under UV light, and acts as a playful nod to the pioneering spirit of the Moonwatch, the first watch on the Moon.
At the 2 o’clock subdial, the timepiece showcases a moon phase indicator with two radiant full moons coated with OMEGA’s Moonshine™ Gold.
In addition to the features, you’ll also find both the OMEGA X Swatch logos are displayed on its dial and crown, as well as its mission statement engraved on the back of its case, a battery cover with an Earth-inspired design, and a navy VELCRO® rubber strap.
