Swatch Watches Make Great Gifts
Swatch watches first went on sale in 1983.
They stood out in the market because not only were Swatch watches made out of plastic, they also had only 51 components in the making of the watch rather than the usual 91 parts.
Buying a Swatch watch meant buying something unique; no one else had your watch.
They were cheap to buy and were funky in design. They almost had that throw away, disposable look to them. And over twenty years later, Swatch watches are still great for kids.
Swatch watches come in bright colors and wacky designs. Swatch is shock-resistant, precise, ultra robust, extremely reliable and water-resistant; almost kid-proof!
The company Swatch – one of the biggest plastic watches manufacturer – has unexpectedly produced a luxury class watch model.
It is the luxury-edition “Diaphane One Turning Goldâ€It is the luxury-edition for 100 most successful collectors. :
· The gold mechanism in a plastic case
· Leather strap
· The mechanism: skeleton with manual winding decorated with complicated patterns which have nothing to do with the canonical shape of the hands and the release mechanism
· The platform is constantly turning and makes two complete turns in one hour
