Sold at auction from February 12 to 24, each of these suitcases contained the eleven Omega x Swatch “Mission to Moonshine Gold” watches. This was the first time these models were brought together and sold together and the exclusive MoonSwatch suitcase was available for purchase.
All profits from the auction will be donated to Orbis, an association which fights once morest blindness and preventable vision problems around the world.
Through its programs and aboard its flying eye hospital, Orbis has already provided eye care to millions of patients, while training hundreds of thousands of eye care professionals in the regions of the world that need it most.
Orbis’ work is valuable, especially to children, as it allows many of them to see their parents, the Moon and the stars for the very first time. Omega has supported Orbis since 2011.
The “Mission to Moonshine Gold” models take the original silhouette of the great classics of the MoonSwatch collection, giving it a dazzling touch. Indeed, each has a seconds hand coated in Moonshine gold – a unique alloy created in-house at Omega that offers a subtler and more durable form of yellow gold.
Each of the Moonshine gold hands also reveals a particular detail, such as a strawberry motif for the “Strawberry Moon” in July, or a flower motif for the “Flower Moon” in May.
