Another trip to the moon! The Omega × Swatch Speedmaster MoonSwatch 1965 is the latest MoonSwatch collaboration between these two iconic brands — and the good news is that it’s a non-limited edition timepiece.

This Omega model has ties to NASA and was the go-to watch for aerospace engineering in the ‘60s. Different watch brands competed for that title back in the day, but Omega debuted a high-quality watch with top-tier specs.

Since this new Omega x Swatch watch honors the ref. 105.003-64 model, most elements are quite identical to the ones featured on the retro model. The hour markers, for instance, bear a close resemblance to the markers that guided NASA in 1965.

Omega didn’t take any chances with this new model. It pulled a new card from its sleeve. While the original model was rolled out with normal chronograph denotations, the 2025 edition has unique engravings that read this—1965. Think of it as a clever way of reminiscing about the past.

Unlike regular watch models, this model tracks 19 hours and 65 minutes and redefines the conventional way of tracking time while still honoring the first-ever model.

The number is hidden in plain sight but looks amazing in the dark, thanks to the watch’s luminous properties.

Even though the original model was released with a black dial, Omega used a brighter shade on this new timepiece. The casing is also characterized by a grey shade, which draws inspiration from the celestial body that lights up our world at night.

The strap also blends with the casing and adds to the overall look. The new OMEGA X Swatch chronograph has an affordable price tag of $270 and will be available starting March 1.

As a watch brand that dates back to the late ‘20s, Citizen has perfected the art of manufacturing accurate timepieces that become beloved. Its flagship collection, The Citizen, is celebrating its 30th anniversary, so, of course, the brand is debuting two new limited-edition models. They are the AQ4106-00A and AQ4100-22L.

Part of the Iconic Nature Collection, Citizen drew inspiration from a Japanese notion, Okashi, that represents life’s beauty, from landscapes and scenery to the most simple moments in life—anything that touches the soul. This can be seen in the delicate Tosa Washi paper on the dial.

The new Unimatic x Massena LAB timepiece honors the NASA Artemis II expedition, set to take place in 2026. One of the crew members, Jeremy Hansen, explained why this mission will impact NASA's trajectory: “I’m going to use three words to describe why I think it’s important. One is inspiration, the second is capacity, and then the final one is collaboration.”

Every single feature on the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Worldtimer, from the dial to the movement, was revamped—the new model is on another level. While the previous generation had a plain dial with a minimalist finish, the latest one comes with an atlas map that makes the font face look stylish. According to Omega, such details were imprinted on the surface using laser-abated technology.

This new Omega timepiece was rolled out in two variants, with the same design but different finishes—one features a black and blue dial, while the second option has a black and grey dial.
