**[City, State] – [Date]** – OMEGA and Swatch have unveiled the MoonSwatch 1965, a new collaboration watch celebrating the 1965 NASA qualification of the OMEGA Speedmaster. This latest iteration of the viral MoonSwatch collection boasts a vintage-inspired design with modern updates.
The MoonSwatch 1965 features a crisp white dial reminiscent of the 2024 Moonwatch Professional, while retaining iconic OMEGA design elements like the logo and hands. Unique to this model are modified chronograph counters displaying “19” hours and “65” minutes, a nod to the year 1965. The watch, crafted from Swatch’s Bioceramic material, comes in a 42mm case with a matte gray finish and a black tachymeter bezel. A matching gray VELCRO® strap and a caseback engraved with co-branding and the original NASA mission statement complete the design. Enhanced visibility is ensured by Grade A Super-LumiNova® coating.
Launching on March 1st – the anniversary of the Speedmaster’s 1965 NASA qualification – the MoonSwatch 1965 will be available at select Swatch stores as a non-limited edition for $270 USD. Participating retailers can be found on Swatch’s website.
