A very lightly worn example of the nicely named Always Cool Swatch that was made in 1998.  Model reference GK287.

HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?

The dial has a date stamp on it for 1998, which makes our life a little easier.  It may have been launched in 1999, but we can not be sure on that.

CONDITION

When we compare this to the photos on Swatch’s website, you can see the strap has faded somewhat.  But if this is a problem for you and you want the watch too look brand new then new straps are available here and are not expensive.  We are keeping the watch original, and while it might be faded the strap hardly looks worn.  The original clear buckle is still fitted too.  The unisex design references warm and cold fronts. and Store In Fridge on the dial, but no where does it say Always Cool.  We will install a brand new battery before sending the watch out to the new owner.

This watch will be supplied with our branded presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.
