A futuristic mix of techniques and materials ignites vivid colors and turns on positive vibes for the hottest seasons of the year: Swatch introduces its Spring-Summer 2019 collection with models that all play a part in the never-ending style revolution.

Continuous movement is at the heart of Swatch transforma­tion, fusing a whole spectrum of color with shapes and patterns. This vivid line embarks on a journey of discovery with the sheer simplicity of transparen­t design. New polarized glass features a semi-transparen­t mirror coating and creates pastel tones when exposed to light. The message is clear—imaginatio­n has no limits!

Glaceon boasts a striking blue dial, made possible with the blue-colored glass. The matte-white strap gets its own dash of color with the blue buckle.

Lush Grassneon has a fresh appearance with green-colored glass over the dial and a matching green dial. The green color looks succulent against the white strap and white case.

Radical Strawbeon goes neon with a hot- pink- colored glass that covers the dial. The sensationa­l pink buckle stands out from the matte-white strap. When life gives you Lemo

neon, you wear that watch with a smile on your face. The dial glows with a neon yellow glass and a buckle with the same electric hue.

Bold Rosso Bianco stops people in their tracks. The back print of the case gives the dial its red appearance and the dark gray indexes and markings are printed on the glass.

Iconic sailor stripes speed across the front and back of Just

Paul. The blue-and-white design wraps around the strap and the dial. The digiprint on the back of the case is what gives the dial its pattern.

Più Nero has a need for speed with black-and-yellow racing colors. White-and-yellow print on the glass stands out against the black background to reveal the seconds and hours in two inner circles.

Sky-blue Ultraciel blows the clouds away. The light blue strap goes perfectly with the white dial, which is covered by a light blue Swatch Solar Spectrum glass.

Ultrarose has a bubblegum-pink feel with a semitransp­arent strap with perfectly pink print. Enjoy the seethrough sensation of the sunbeams passing through the pinky printing.

Dark violet shifts to green on Polapurple’s fascinatin­g dial. The matte strap is also dark purple, and the buckle and case are clear. Polablue invites you to dive in. A cool blue hue on the strap matches the color of the Swatch Solar Spectrum glass that protects the blue dial. A splash of orange on the dial is a great final touch. Polarose has a pop of pink and blast of bold. The black dial features pink print that matches the strap. A dark-colored Swatch Solar Spectrum glass gives the dial its seductive look. Droplets of blue blot the white strap that Paveblue is wrapped in. The blue dial has white numbers and matches some of the dots on the strap. Pavered paves the way for this season’s style with a hop, skip and pop pattern made with pink and red polka dots. The pink dial is the perfect bridge between the pattern. Go all-in with All Pink. 3D-printed hearts on the pink dial give this watch a lovely touch, and the strap is covered in pink print. A merry-go-round of pink hearts prances around Coeur De Manège’s strap. The sun-brushed pink dial is embellishe­d with 3D print. Fall in love with Herzlich, a cute white watch with little multicolor­ed hearts on the strap. The white dial is just as adorable with its 3D-printed blue, red and pink numbers. The 12th animal of the Chinese zodiac comes full throttle into Swatch’s Gem of New Year. On the shiny gold silicone strap sits a pattern of red stripes that draws the attention to the golden polished dial. The head embraces an extra twinkle with 12 Swatch Sparkles and a happy wondering pig. A Gent Swatch that will bring good fortune, generosity and luck to all its wearers!
