Snoopy has added a golden touch to the OMEGA x Swatch Mission to Earthphase with a limited release in Moonshine Gold and navy, arriving on August 9th 2025, priced at AUD$610.
Like previous releases, there’s an Earthphase and Moonphase indicator, which is more of a functional gimmick than a useful tool, but it looks cool nonetheless. Both of these follow a 29.5-day cycle and move in opposite directions. For example, when there’s a full moon, we see a new earth, and when there’s a new moon, we glimpse a full earth. Watch enthusiasts can think of it as a reinterpretation of the retrograde function seen in some high-end timepieces.
Before we take a closer look at the watch, it needs to be said that the OMEGA x Swatch Mission to Earthphase Moonshine Gold (AUD$610) will be released in-store only on August 9th 2025, at the following Swatch stores in Australia: Melbourne (Collins Street), Perth (Murray Street Mall), Sydney (Pitt Street Mall), and Brisbane (Queen Street).
OMEGA x Swatch Mission to Earthphase Moonshine Gold Key Specifications
Here are the key specs for the OMEGA x Swatch Mission to Earthphase Moonshine Gold:

- Case diameter: 42.00 mm
- Case thickness: 13.75 mm
- Lug-to-lug distance: 47.30 mm

- Water resistance: 3 bar
- Strap: navy rubber strap with VELCRO® closure, navy Bioceramic loop
The highlight of this limited edition MoonSwatch is the Moonshine Gold-adorned moon phase indicator on the 2 o’clock subdial. It’s Snoopy-like and inspired by the “Sturgeon Moon,” which appears during August (the month of this watch release). This moon takes its name from the sturgeon fish found in the Great Lakes in North America during summer, and Swatch has added a Snoopy-like cast net to one of the watches’ moons to pay homage.
Snoopy finds his way to the subdial, below the Earthphase indicator, where he is joined by his copilot, Woodstock, on the Moon. It’s a fun addition, but some of the Man of Many team thinks the dial is a bit crowded now, with three sub-dials, two of which are indicators.
Like all MoonSwatch models, the OMEGA x Swatch Mission to Earthphase Moonshine Gold’s case uses the patented Bioceramic material, a mix of two-thirds ceramic and one-third biosourced materials produced from castor oil. The dark navy blue hue has been created specifically for this model, and it looks like you’re staring into deep space.
On the caseback, the battery cover features an Earth-inspired design. However, we’re more excited about the navy VELCRO rubber strap. This was previously introduced as a standalone product that you could purchase from Swatch stores, but has now been included from the factory to match the exclusive navy blue case hue.
Once again, the OMEGA x Swatch Mission to Earthphase Moonshine Gold (AUD$610) will be released in-store only on August 9th 2025, at the following Swatch stores in Australia: Melbourne (Collins Street), Perth (Murray Street Mall), Sydney (Pitt Street Mall), and Brisbane (Queen Street). Being a limited release, we expect it to sell out rather quickly, even if MoonSwatch hype has died since the watches’ first release.
