Yes the "crystal" is plastic. But it's a part of the watch ... I don't mind a scratch or two (and it's more "scuffs" not deep scratches).

That being said... I wouldn't use these as tools watches and bang them around. It's a plastic mold...

I wore mine at the airport and one of the security agents said he had bought a moonswatch but it "felt cheap on the wrist" so he returned it. Then he explained that he collected vintage Panerai's and Hublot's which explains the feeling. I left that conversation wondering what he was expecting from a plastic case watch?

I bought a Mission to Mars last year in Amsterdam, Swatch Store, just coincidence.

There were just 5 left and I found the MtM the nicest.
Compared to my 3861 Speedy and my 105.012-65 it just sucks heavily lol. But hey what can you expect! I just keep it in the box, the missus wore it once and she didn't like it either. Sorry.

Cheers

Haha… I just got my brother a Mission to Mercury watch to go with his Speedy for his birthday

Definitely feels and looks like a toy compared to the real thing, but he loves it and plans to swap it out with a rubber band to preserve the strap. Definitely a far better collab than the Blancpain imo.

I’m planning on an actual Speedmaster by the end of the year and just bought a Mission to the Moon. I recently bought a TAG Aquaracer Chronograph and thought the Moonswatch would be fun.
