Best 90s Swatch Watch Models
Swatch is a Swiss watch brand that has been around since 1983. The 90s was a period of vast growth for the Swatch Group, which would eventually lead to the expansion of their portfolio, with high-end watch brands such as Blancpain and Breguet. As the brand grew, a lot of exciting Swatch models were released, so let's check out some cool 90s Swatch watches!

Retro Swatch Watches from the 80s and 90s
Since 1983, Swatch has had a huge impact on the global watch industry and are true pioneers in terms of innovation and creativity. The Swatch Group has revived the trust in Swiss watches. It has made the most renowned mass-produced Swiss quartz movements. And they achieved the perfomance of using only 51 watch parts in an automatic timepiece, assembled entirely by robots.
With some innovative marketing strategies, Swatch has progressively conquered the European watch market. Nowadays, the 80s and 90s Swatch watches are becoming more and more collectible, since they get harder and harder to find.
Now let's have a look at some of our top picks!
1. PAROS PWB147 Pop Swatch | 90s Vintage Pop Swatch Watches
At the top of our list, we find the PAROS PWB147 Pop Swatch, which has a simple and classic design. Dating back exactly to 1990, this model is a key piece in our Pop Swatch watch collection, a rare model with a design that is no longer in production.
With a case width of 46-mm, these oversized bulky Swatch models bring back that retro Swatch look of the 90s, which is currently making a come-back.
2. FLOWER POWER PUJ101 Pop Swatch | 1997 Swatch Alarm Table Clock

The GENETIC CODE GZ164 Vintage Swatch Watch is the beautiful skeletonized Swatch model that should be in every Swatch collector's watch box.

The Luzern auctions in the early 90s
In 1991, Robert Casagrande, a wealthy Swiss souvenir shop owner and a small team of Swatch enthusiasts established the first International auction for Swatch. He wanted more than a simple auction, more like a multi-day event complete with organized dinner, traders bourse and of course a quite glamorous auction with many rare Swatches and also plenty of unusual prototypes. Additionally, his team decided to devise a multi-year theme to go along with the specially created event "Timepiece" that they would create each year. They never really told anyone about this theme until it became evident in the third year.
6. TOUTATIS RESTYLED YDS4002AGC Swatch Watch | Scuba 200 Swatch Irony
Among our best sellers, we find the Swatch Scuba 200 Irony line, the perfect mix between a Swatch Scuba and a Swatch Irony. The TOUTATIS RESTYLED YDS4002AGC Swatch watch features a rubber watch strap and an enforced watch case, with water-resistance up to 200m.
The orange dial, rotating bezel, date function, luminiscent hour markers and hands are just a few of the amazing features this Swatch diver watch offers.
7. GREENTIC SCV100 Swatch Watch | 1992 Vintage Swatch Chronograph
The 90s Swatch chronograph watches are some of the most exciting budget Swiss timepieces you can get. The mix of colors on the dial, perfect geometry, chrono functions, and affordable prices made these watches so popular during that time period.
Dating back to 1992, the GREENTIC SCV100 Swatch Watch still looks modern and fresh. The vibrant colors and the Swiss engineering behind the movement are the key ingredients behind the success of the Chrono Swatch watches. Wouldn't you agree?
8. STILL WORKING SQZ103 Digital Beat Swatch Watch | 1999 Digital Swatch Watch
A Swatch model that not many know about, the Swatch Digital Beat has been around for over 20 years now. This watch might be a great alternative to a G-Shock, in case you are looking for a Swiss-made vintage watch with similar functions.
Bulky, made of plastic, a variety of functions to discover, that sums up this spectacular Swatch model. For a more elegant alternative to this model, check out the Swatch Beat Aluminium version.

Swiss-Made, mass produced, assembled by machinery, and on top, solar-powered. Was that possible for Swatch in ths 90s? Of course!
