Join The Swatch Club
What makes something popular? Why is something so popular that millions of people spend money on it and tens of thousands become collectors. The subject of this fashion and passion is collectors Swatch watches. The Swiss only started making these time pieces in the early eighties but today there are more than 2000 different types of this hugely popular watch. With so many sales of so many styles it was only natural that people would start collecting. There are collectors’ clubs around the world. They are well-looked after by the clever Swiss. A new watch comes out and every Swatch member gets a free time-piece. The watches keep coming, the public keep buying and the collectors keep collecting.
