[Swatch] X Blancpain seems to be a dud (alien.top)

I was walking by the San Francisco Swatch store and dropped in to take a look at the Blancpain collaboration. The Swatch employee said they still only had limited colors of the MoonSwatch available but every color of the Blancpain was in stock. I’m not interested in either but it confirmed my suspicions that the Blancpain isn’t nearly as popular as the MoonSwatch, especially at the higher price point.

To be fair, the Moonswatch was an industry changing event. Although I think you’re right. I didn’t know anything about Blancpain and the prices are high enough that anyone in the swatch price bracket is not even close to being in the Blancpain price bracket. Omega was a big price jump but nowhere near as big of a jump.
