Just like the Omega Speedmaster, the Omega x Swatch MoonSwatch lug width is 20 mm, which is the most common lug width. More about how to find out which band size your watch needs here. How do I change the bracelet or strap on my MoonSwatch? Photos were taken by our brand ambassadors Sascha Venturi ( www.saschaventuri.com, @doesnotcountbut), @gulenissen and @jensb1954– Thank you for the awesome pictures of our straps on your Omega! Swatch watches have pulled one of the best publicity stunts as their latest release: Omega x Swatch Moonwatch collection is going wild. The Omega x Swatch Moonwatch is an exceptional business move from Swatch - one of the major players in Swiss watchmaking. As expected, wristwatch collectors and speculators have gone on a hunting frenzy, trying to lay their hands on the new collection. The watch is an all-out assault of blue. You might be tempted to try and offset this all-blue visage, but I’m of the opinion to just roll with it here. It’s funny because Ben’s strap combination was the first thing I thought of when I first saw the Mission To Neptune images. I very nearly bought this exact model for this exact strap combo. Where is this strap from, you ask? Well, it’s another from Artem straps.

Omega Speedmaster , Bulova Lunar Pilot, and the Omega+Swatch MoonSwatch . There is a Moonwatch for every budget and an authentic Lunar strap to wear them all on . As a side line it is also worth pointing out that Moonwatches look great on NATOs. Whilst NATOS were never used on any NASA missions the military chronograph style of these watches really lends them favourably to NATO straps and there are many options which give you the classic “over the spacesuit” look. Modelled on our planets, there are 11 watch models and HIRSCH has straps to match every Moonswatch, so you can combine your new piece with elegant and sporty looks alike. Whether you’re looking to replace a broken watch strap or switch up your look for any occasion – at HIRSCH you’ll find a wide range of matching straps for your Moonswatch. MOONSWATCH STRAPS IN A RICH VARIETY OF COLOURS & MATERIALS When you get a new watch, you want to strap it on and start enjoying it as soon as possible. Knowing you want to replace the strap right away and not having the replacement on hand can dampen the “New Watch Alert” fun somewhat. I’ve been there before, leaving some watches for days or even weeks until I had the right strap. Thankfully, when my Mission To Mercury arrived, I had the strap waiting on my desk, ready to go. Knowing I’m not alone and that a fair few others have expressed their preference for a different strap, I thought I’d put together a few options I’d seen, which I thought looked like good alternative strap options for the MoonSwatch. I don’t have options for every Mission here, so let me know in the comments if you have some suggestions. Sharing is caring!

Swatch x Omega Speedmaster

All of the eleven MoonSwatch models pay tribute to one of the planetary bodies in our Solar System, as seen with their case and dial colors. The models that will catch your eye the most are probably the Mission to the Sun and Mission to Neptune. The former shines in a bright, lemon yellow, while the Neptune model stands out with its rich blue hues.

Omega x Swatch Moonwatch, change watch band to a Nato watch strap. Image credit : captured from video of DigitalFux 4K The Omega x Swatch Moonswatch is a stunning piece that will be a great addition to your wristwatch collection if you do not have any high expectations. Only one thing you need to reconsider is if you are expecting a luxury watch, this is probably not your cup of tea. Omega x Swatch Moonswatch has standard 20mm watch lug width, which means finding a replacement watch band in the market is easy. Can you still wait to get your Moonswatch to explore the possibilities? To change the bracelet of your Omega x Swatch MoonSwatch watch, you’ll need a spring bar tool with a special 1 mm fork, that fits in the openings of the bracelet, for example, the Bergeon 6767 spring bar tool.

At ZULUDIVER we had wanted to develop an authentic Moonwatch strap for some time and early in 2022 we released the ZULUDIVER LUNAR strap. Early models sold out and the strap is now on its third production run! We undertook extensive research studying original NASA blueprints and numerous vintage photographs of astronauts to get our product as accurate as possible yet functional for daily use. No, you grow up. The Mission To Uranus inevitably garnered memes and jokes aplenty at the time of launch. It doesn’t matter how old we are or how serious we can be; butt jokes are always funny. Once we got past the sniggers and laughs, we found the Mission To Uranus was a bright little beaut. Those baby-blue tones are refreshingly unisex, and the white bezel is the perfect complement. OK, so the MoonSwatch might not quite yet be widely available online, but there’s no harm in making sure you’re fully prepared for when it is. I didn’t get my Mission To Mercury on the day of release. I had to wait until a couple of weeks after the launch, but the wait was worth it. Why? Because I was fully prepared with my replacement strap, ready to go.Looking for a MoonSwatch that's in keeping with the original Omega? Look no further than the Mission to the Moon. This model's colors, lettering and numbers, and overall look are nearly identical to the Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch. An alternative here is also the Mission to Mercury, whose gray tones give it a unique look that is nevertheless faithful to the classic Speedy.
