All SWatch collectors received the new club watch Playa Look in a unique packaging especially made for the launch event.  Normally, the eye ball containing the club watch is packaged in a black box.  The event packaging (GZ215-1) containing the eye ball is blue and and has a violet inscription “Limited Edition Pack Of 200 Pieces”.  An extra Cassette Playa loop (not available with the regular edition of the club watch) is also contained in the box.

New Swatch Special: St. Scholastica

On the 10th of  September 2010, the long-awaited dream project of the St. Scholastica College in Manilla, the Philippines, came to a completion and was shown to the public. A new special launched by Swatch, the St. Scholastica Swatch, is a limited edition of 500 pieces.

It’s an extra large Blue Wing (SUDN100) with a special strap, packed in a pretty paper sleeve. The special was initiated by the St. Scholastica College High School Batch for celebrating the silver jubilee of the class as the school was founded in 1986, so it’s almost 25 years ago.

New Swatch Product Line: New Gent

A new Swatch product line will be launched very soon: New Gent. This new product line is almost the same as the Standard Gent line that started as the first Swatch in 1983. The main difference is that the diameter has increased to 40MM (the old one is 33mm). The strap has 9 holes instead of 8.

Gold & Pioneer event 2010

The traditional Swatch The Club Gold & Pioneer Event 2010 took place in Saas-Fee, Switzerland from September 1 till 4. About 150 collectors from all around the world participated at the event. Just like last years, a special and unique swatch was given to the collectors. This year’s special was the first of the new New Gent watch, Salmagell – SUOZ100S. The watch is packaged in a white plactic with silicon pack numbered with a gold plate at the bottom. The special is limited to 250 pcs. The watch has a loop with golden imprint stating “Gold & Pioneer”. The back of the watch case is numbered with xxx/250. The production code is “033″, so it was made in half August 2010!

At a fabulous visit of the ETA Swatch production, collectors also received a very nice special glass with the details of the visit and a unique lab coat with the ETA logo. On top it all:  The new Gold Members were able to build their own watch inside the ETA productions with the ETA staff!

More information and pictures can be found on the Swatch Clopedia Forum.
