One of the most stylish features of this timepiece is the colored sapphire, which accentuates complications featured on the watch. For starters, the watch comes with multiple indicators to display the exact day and month.

It also has a date indicator, with denotations running from 4 to 8 O’clock in a semi-circular line. Such denotations are complemented by white hour markers. Unlike the previous models, this model is fitted with long hour markers, which are quite stylish. Since the hour markers are filled with Super-LumiNova, this timepiece makes it easier for anyone to tell the time at night.

Thanks to the clear case back, every element on the mechanism, from the jewel to the mechanical bridges, is in plain sight—this adds some character to the watch.

The Bovet Récital 21 Perpetual Calendar is equipped with the 13DM05-QPR caliber, which offers a 120-hour power reserve.

The watch is available in three different color options—blue, green, and brown. Each color option comes with a matching strap. For instance, the timepiece with the blue sapphire is complemented by a blue strap.

As a limited edition piece, Bovet rolled out 180 pieces. Every color has 60 pieces. The Bovet Récital 21 Perpetual Calendar retails at $101,448.

Swatch, our beloved budget-friendly watchmaker who is somewhat like a rambunctious younger brother that you keep around for his funny antics, has just debuted four new timepieces. In the run-up to the Paris Summer Olympics, every brand has been coming up with its own products to sell, and Swatch may have come up with the best one. Three of the new watches take inspiration from a specific sport while the fourth is part of the Flik Flak range that is made for children.
Swatch Green Backside Wave

Inspired by the Olympic sport of surfing, the Swatch Green Backside Wave will have you saying "cowabunga dude!" This model has a 41mm case with a thickness of 9.85mm, meaning it can easily fit under your shirt sleeves and won't cause a nuisance on your wrist. Keeping it environmentally friendly, Swatch has constructed the case from dark green bio-sourced resin with a domed crystal made of bio-sourced plastic. Additionally, it has 30 meters of water resistance so you can still sport it in the rain, and is powered by an ETA quartz movement. As for surf aesthetics, this Swatch has a silicone strap with a green gradient design with pink underneath and features a surfboard printed on the loop.

Will Omega and Swatch ever run out of ideas for their MoonSwatch collaborations? Well, just like how the universe is infinite, it appears this partnership may be as well. Previously, MoonSwatch models represented all the major celestial bodies in our solar system, from the Sun to Mars, and all the way up to Pluto, as well as a few special editions like a model with Moonshine gold-plated seconds hands, and one featuring Snoopy. For a long time, Omega and Swatch have sparked curiosity and desperation, with fans left wondering what exactly the new watches will look like, and the wait is finally over.

Omega and Swatch have released 3 new MoonSwatch watches, but this time, these models stay a little closer to home, as they take inspiration from our own planet. The new trio, part of the Mission to Earth series, are based on the natural wonders of our planet as seen from space: Lava, Polar Lights, and Desert.
