Revisiting Swatch


A few years back I trekked into Time Square to make a purchase. It was a nostalgic purchase that made me feel a little goofy but also a little excited. For the first time in almost 20 years, I bought a new Swatch watch. In case you are a unfamiliar, Swatch was to the 80s what the smartphone is to now, the must have accessory. I had two that I actually wore at the same time. Now I stick to just one. With the Toy watch popularity of the past few years, more and more people are wearing colorful plastic watches. If you want something colorful and fun check out Swatch. You can get fabulous new models or go vintage (gag, am I that old?) and buy one of the originals.




And in case you were wondering...here are my two awesome 80s swatches.
