The Bioceramic MoonSwatch Mission to Earthphase celebrates our two nearest celestial bodies, the Earth and the Moon. Swatch’s new non-limited creation not only comes with a moon phase, but more importantly – and for the first time in watchmaking history – an earth phase. Never before have these two fascinating complications been combined in the same watch. In so doing, Swatch puts a different spin on Galileo’s famous quote “And yet it moves!” and playfully declares “And yet they move!”.
