Experience the MoonSwatch Tour in Okayama!
The much-anticipated MoonSwatch Tour is set to arrive at Okayama Takashimaya, taking place on September 13 and 14. This special event, organized by Swatch, aims to showcase the innovative
Bioceramic MoonSwatch collection, born from a groundbreaking collaboration with OMEGA.
Okayama Takashimaya, a cherished department store that opened its doors in 1973, has established a strong reputation within the area. Ideally located near JR Okayama Station, it serves as a beloved shopping destination for both locals and tourists alike. Here, visitors can immerse themselves in the captivating world of MoonSwatch.
The
Bioceramic MoonSwatch collection is a tribute to the historic Apollo 11 moon landing, blending the iconic design of the OMEGA Speedmaster Moonwatch with Swatch's playful creativity. Each model in the collection is named after celestial bodies, including the sun, moon, and planets, weaving a unique narrative that has continued to charm fans worldwide since its launch in 2022.
Notably, these limited-edition watches are exclusively available at select Swatch stores in Japan and are not sold online, making the MoonSwatch Tour a rare opportunity for enthusiasts to experience the collection firsthand. In addition, each tour features the iconic
OMEGA Speedmaster, alongside a classic car, the
FIAT 500, which made its debut in the same year as the Speedmaster in 1957. This union of classic automotive design and watchmaking heritage enhances the tour's appeal, making it a visually engaging journey.
