Only Available on August 9, 2025 – Full Moon Drop
Swatch and Omega are back with a limited edition MoonSwatch drop: the Mission to the Earthphase – Moonshine™ Gold Edition. This model is part of the MoonSwatch Moonshine™ series and will be available only on one specific date — August 9, 2025, the night of the full moon.
That’s right: this release is available for one day only and only in selected Swatch stores worldwide. No online sales, no second chance.
Why This One-Day Drop Matters
Each Moonshine™ Gold release is linked to the lunar cycle, and Swatch has made it a tradition to drop a new model only during a full moon. That limited access has created huge demand for every edition in the series.
For the Earthphase model, Swatch combines its Bioceramic case with a deep green and blue colorway that reflects Earth’s natural tones. The seconds hand is coated in 18K Moonshine™ Gold, Omega’s own fade-resistant gold alloy — the same one used in their Speedmaster watches.
This model isn’t part of the permanent collection. Once it's gone, it's gone.
