Snoopy MoonSwatch With The Mission To Earthphase Moonshine Gold

Swatch has unveiled a new collaborative watch, the Mission to Earthphase - Moonshine Gold. Featuring a navy blue Bioceramic case, this is the third MoonSwatch watch to incorporate Snoopy, following the white and black models.

Detail at 9 o'clock on the dial: Snoopy, dressed in flight suits, and Woodstock, seated on the lunar surface, gaze up at Earth. This marks the third time Snoopy has appeared in a MoonSwatch watch, following the white and black models. Snoopy is the mascot of NASA, which recognizes organizations or individuals for outstanding contributions to space exploration through the "Snoopy Award."

The MoonSwatch series not only recreates the case and dial design of the Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch, but also introduces a popular element previously featured in Omega's premium models: Snoopy. Compared to previous models, Snoopy no longer resides on the moon, appearing for the first time on the dial, making his image more intuitive and prominent.

Both previous MoonSwatch "Snoopy" watches feature Easter eggs, revealing classic lines from the comics when illuminated with UV light, and this watch is no exception. To highlight the unique Earth phase function, the Earth at 10 o'clock is rendered in blue, with Snoopy's speech in the dialogue box below proclaiming, "I beat everybody." This line appears in a 1969 comic strip, set during the US-Soviet Space Race, when Snoopy boasted of having landed on the moon before both the US and the Soviet Union.

Another highlight of this watch is its use of 18K Moonshine gold. This 18K alloy, pioneered by Omega, combines copper, silver, and palladium. The addition of palladium replaces the zinc in traditional 18K gold, enhancing the material's resistance to fading. Moonshine 18K gold is lighter in color than traditional 18K gold, with a cool, moonlight-like sheen, hence its name.
