The story of its design, as written on the Swatch official website:
"360° Rosso Sur Blackout (GZ119) is simple and geometric, prompting the viewer to look closely for the meaning and mechanism concealed in its elegance. A precise, thin red line runs the length of the piece, otherwise rendered in gun-metal, dimly luminescent black and grey. Strapped to the wrist, the cardinal dividing line meets up with itself and forms a circle (360 degrees), a continuous ellipse of red. Placed flat on a surface, the red of the design yields a different composition, a play of still lines and the two red dots that mark the time. Intelligent and curiously pure, this watch has the beauty of a mathematical formula."

SWATCH WATCHES SINCE 1983
Swatch is a Swiss watchmaker founded in 1983 by Nicolas Hayek and a subsidiary of The Swatch Group. The Swatch product line was developed as a response to the "quartz crisis" of the 1970s and 1980s, in which Asian-made digital watches were competing against traditional European-made mechanical watches. We have been collecting Swiss watches for almost 15 years and of course, this amazing brand had to make it in our collection. Moreover, it has become the most prominent one, as our collection rises up to 1000 Swatch watch models at this point. We have watches from all the major Swatch watch categories, such as Swatch Originals, Swatch Irony, Swatch skin, Swatch Bijoux, Swatch Digital Touch, Swatch Sistem51, Chronograph Swatch watches, Scuba Swatch watches, Flik Flak & more.

An amazing fashion innovation
From the start, the Swatch brand targeted primarily fashionable young people. Swatch dials were a riot of colorful, cheerful, cheeky designs. For Swatch, the dial (and sometimes the case) was a blank palette on which designers could put whatever they chose. There were no rules. Swatch’s anything-goes aesthetic allowed photographs, printing, painting, cartoons, designs – whatever – to go on the dial. The design stole the show. The time, in the form of three hands, was there, if you wanted it. Swatch quickly collaborated with contemporary artists to do limited, collector edition pieces. The first was Kiki Picasso in 1984 and eventually included dozens of artists. Have a look at our Swatch collection to find your favorite design!
