Currently in Las Vegas for the F1 GP and figured I’d stop by the Swatch stores while I’m here. Initially went to the Fasion Show Mall store but soon found out that they only have the Moonswatches in stock right now. Ended up trekking all the way to the New York New York store, who ended up having this and the Indian Ocean color way in stock. Initial impressions are pretty much on par with my expectations after seeing how the Moonswatch collection turned out. Was not expecting the watch to only have a pull-out crown vs. a screw down crown, though. Wonder how this will affect the water resistance rating down the line, although I probably wont be wearing this to any beach or scuba trips anyways.

    Afaik a screw down crown doesn’t actually make a watch more water resistant, it just makes it harder to accidentally pull out the crown. Can’t say I’ve ever had that happen
