I stood in line for the Moonswatch on release date. I was one of the lucky ones to get my hands on one, after 8 hours of waiting. I've been wearing my Earth model regularly, especially as a fun Summer watch.
I couldn't make myself available on the Blancpain launch weekend and had also noticed the distinct difference in hype between the 2 launches. Nevertheless, when I came across a Swatch store last month, I had to go in and check them out in person ... and walked out with the Pacific model. I often wear black and it's a nice pop of color on my wrist.
I have about 12 watches I wear regularly (nothing too fancy, Stowa Marine is my most expensive watch, Bulova Lunar Pilot my most worn watch) and both the Moonswatch and the new Blancpain Swatch both have their place in my collection. Especially when my outfit needs a splash of color or fun. It's like putting on a colorful pair of sneakers under a subdued outfit - the contrast works pretty well.
Long story short, very happy with my 2 collab Swatches, they add fun to my watch collection and my wrist.
