• Swatch and Omega have adopted up February’s MoonSwatch 1965 with a neon pink moonphase MoonSwatch.
• Celebrating the annual look of the Pink Moon, it’s functionally equivalent to the Tremendous Blue Moonphase from 2024, besides boasts love coronary heart particulars on its chrono pushers.
• Like earlier restricted MoonSwatches, it would solely be out there at choose places, at the moment TBC.

Usually, after we see {that a} watch has a launch date of April 1st, we dismiss it as an April Idiot’s Day joke. That’s what I assumed when Swatch teased what seemed to be one more MoonSwatch earlier this week on Instagram – that they could be pulling our legs. However nope, the Mission to the Pink Moonphase is legit – however I’m stunned that it’s being launched on April Idiot’s as its design is far more evocative of Valentine’s Day. Guess love’s an all-year-round type of factor?

Really, Swatch has defined that this MoonSwatch is supposed to mark the annual look of the pink moon – which is simply what you name a full moon in April. Pink moons aren’t truly pink, by the best way, except there’s mild air pollution or haze (not like harvest moons, which might have an orange color as a consequence of larger Rayleigh scattering because the Moon seems shut above the horizon). Nonetheless, that hasn’t stopped Swatch from actually leaning into the theme, imagining the MoonSwatch in a lairy pink color scheme.

Anyway: the Swatch x Omega Bioceramic MoonSwatch Mission to the Pink Moonphase, to name it by its full title, was truly teased by Swatch Group CEO Nick Hayek Jr. throughout a latest press convention – the pinnacle honcho taking a leaf out of Daniel Craig and Omega or David Beckham and Tudor’s e-book. It’s patterned after the Tremendous Blue Moonphase from 2024, swapping out that mannequin’s blue case and highlights in favour of a pink Bioceramic case, pink opaline dial, a pink moonphase show and pink-tipped fingers. You get the image.

Just like the Tremendous Blue Moonphase however not like the unique OmegaSpeedmaster, the Mission to the Pink Moonphase includes a pulsometer bezel somewhat than a tachymeter. Nonetheless, not like another MoonSwatch or Speedmaster, the Mission to the Pink Moonphase has a little bit graphic embossed on its 2 o’clock pusher: a little bit coronary heart, which is a pleasant nod to the pulsometer scale in addition to fully thematic with this watch’s neon pink look.
