What's for sale?
This is the Swatch "Photoshooting" unisex watch designed for the Swiss maker's 1992 Autumn & Winter Catalogue. Model number GN122.
It's another multicoloured design that works well. The dial is a mirrored background splashed with a different colour for each quadrant. We particularly like the way the numerals have been printed in reverse on the back of the crystal and cast their shadow on the dial.
The hour and minute hands are a silver grey to match the mirror effect and contrast with the colours, making it easy to read at a glance. The sweep second is in black.
The case and buckle have been cast in a translucent blue resin. The strap is in clear plastic and decorated with multi-coloured graphics.
It has the usual reliable ETA quartz movement powered by a 390 battery.
Our photographs include the Swatch catalogue image, which isn't included in the sale.
