alphabiz Views  

A suitcase edition from OMEGA, the Swiss luxury watch brand, has garnered significant attention at a Sotheby’s auction.

OMEGA held an auction for the suitcase edition, which contained 11 Moonswatch Moonshine Gold models, at Sotheby’s online auction from February 12 to 24.

This suitcase edition contained 11 OMEGA X Swatch “Mission to Moonshine Gold” watches.

This is the first time a special Moonswatch and bag in a set have been auctioned off together.

The Moonswatch Collection is a reinterpretation of the original Bio Ceramic Moonswatch, exuding a subtle charm with a second hand coated in a unique alloy, 18K Moonshine™ Gold, developed in-house.

The total proceeds were 534,670 Swiss francs (approximately $607,000), which will be used as necessary funds for Orbis International, a long-term partner.

He added, “OMEGA sincerely believes in Orbis’s mission to protect vision, and we are delighted to be able to raise funds along with increasing awareness of their activities.”
