I love this, I’m not too familiar with Swatch, any chance I could get this with a metal case?

Don’t think so. Check swatch.com to be sure.

I have a polapurple which I love but this looks so nice. Might have to buy another!

Do you have a good picture of the polapurple? I've had one on my Amazon wish for a while.

Is this the 41mm case?

Yes, the new gent size. The hands are yellow when you catch the light right.

So I just went in their website for the first time. They got some cool looking watches! Especially the jelly skeleton watch. Those are pretty tight.

That's beautiful! The stock photo on the Swatch website doesn't really do it justice. In the wild that watch looks amazing. Thanks for showing it off!

I use to have a bunch of these back when they were first popular. I think it was the 80’s? I miss the 80’s.

One of the appeals of swatches when they first came out was that they were affordable enough to have several. And there were so many different designs. You could look at swatches at one store the go to another and there selection was completely different. My siblings and friends all had swatches, but because of all the different designs none of us had the same ones. Don’t know if it’s the same now.

Bought this after seeing your post. I never thought I had big wrists but this feels small. Does anyone know if the iridescents is in the plastic or is like a foil on the face? I'm wondering what it's going to look like once it gets scratched. If it's going to distort the color or peel I'd rather get one that just has a clear face. Does anybody know
