the special is limited to 500 pieces per item no number on the box or paper sheath and no special code for the specials.
By the way the special is not cheap for me, It cost USD95 per item without count for the ticket(USD10) to enter the exhibition.
If you make sure for the special just let me know.

I received my series. They are well made and lovely! So I like them a lot. Have just started making new dials for them. Will show you pictures once I am done!

[Hans]

I finished creating my own Swatch heads for the van Gogh series. I am quite pleased with the result. Check them out:






What do you think about these?

[BonZai]

Well done, looks much better
Great Job!

[swatch.home.pages.de]

Phantastic. Did you forget the "(R)" right next to the word "swatch"?

[masas]

Impressive work!
Well done!

Hans, super. I noticed a little piece of each dial missing at the bottom, was this intentional?

[Hans]

Yes! All Swatch dials have a small piece missing to securely lock the dial in the right position. For Gents and Automatics this is on the lower side, for Ladies this is on the upper side. For Chrono's it is somewhere on the side. Every dial has this. I need to find a way to make it a bit rounder.

[r1chard]

very nice. impressive actually. Swatch should hire you.

do you have maxi versions too?

[Hans]

Upon closer inspection there are more things to be known about these:

First of all the straps are much better quality than we are used to from Gents straps. They are big, not thin and still very flexible. On the back they are ribbed and the brand Swatch is impressed in relief on the back. Fantastic quality.

In all boxes, between the paperwork, is a paper inlay with a picture of the Swatch interpretation used on this Swatch and also a description of van Gogh and the particular painting.

On the side of the package also the Swatch brand name and "Vincent".

Again, this package is very well made.

hi~EV8D:
The new edition is impressive. Thanks for Hans.
If you get the specials and you will understand the desctiption of Hans.
The strape is easy for water through away and within a print the same as the paper sleeve, I always keep them inside the plastic box(in fact they put the paper between the paper sleeve and the plastic box).
