On Christmas day, 1969, Seiko released the Astron, the first-ever … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: How Audemars Piguet used the quartz crisis to refine their brand vision appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

So you can’t get a MoonSwatch. Here are 5 alternatives…

I do have to start this segment by admitting that no other watch out there quite matches what the MoonSwatch can offer.
