Swatch Owner Review : Memorable, fun and historical

I present to you my Swatch, which I received as a gift as a volunteer at the 2024 Olympic Games. I was a basketball volunteer in Lille, helping the athletes. Before that, I didn't collect watches at all and only had an old Festina that I've had for over 20 years. Then I went to a Swatch store to buy a blue model, and that's when I discovered the MoonSwatch. That's really when I started collecting watches. This model is quite exclusive: each volunteer has had one, so around 45,000 in total. You can sometimes find them on Vinted or Le Bon Coin, but this one is mine, full of memories of my 10 days of volunteering, seeing all the basketball players in the locker rooms at the Pierre-Mauroy stadium. The watch is small, 33 mm, with no stop-seconds on the quartz. The strap is integrated; it's an almost disposable watch, and honestly, I've almost never worn it, except for the volunteer appreciation event at the town hall. You may or may not like the design; personally, I'm not a fan, but I'll soon introduce you to the blue chronograph model, which I love. It has an NFC chip for paying with Visa, but it only works with a few banks. I keep this watch with all my bags and clothing, as a precious souvenir of this unique experience of volunteering at the Olympics. A quick note: a model is for sale, with a different design than the volunteers', but at €90, I find it really too expensive for the quality.
