Swatch has temporarily paused its popular MoonSwatch releases to introduce a vibrant new lineup of dive-ready timepieces just in time for summer. The Scubaqua collection features five bold designs, each named after a different jellyfish—a playful nod to the watches’ aquatic versatility.
For many watch enthusiasts, Swatch’s Scuba line holds nostalgic appeal. The brand’s latest offering revives this legacy with a modern twist, blending innovative materials and striking aesthetics.
A Fusion of Bioceramic and Biosourced Transparency
Breaking away from traditional plastic designs, the 44mm cases incorporate Swatch’s signature Bioceramic for the solid-colored body, paired with translucent elements derived from castor oil. The result is a bright, contemporary look that stays true to the brand’s playful identity.
Five eye-catching colorways are available: black, white, blue, red, and yellow. Each model features a semi-transparent dial and glow-in-the-dark accents, ensuring readability whether underwater or at a seaside party.
Jellyfish-Themed Names and Dive-Ready Features
The collection pays homage to marine life with its jellyfish-inspired names: Blue Fire (blue), Lion’s Mane (red), Egg Yolk (yellow), Black Sea Nettle (black), and Aurelia Aurita (white). Even the crown placement at 10 o’clock offers a quirky take on classic dive-watch design.
With a water resistance of 10 bar (approximately 100 meters), the Scubaqua is ideal for swimming, snorkeling, or impromptu pool dips. The lightweight, silky straps enhance comfort, making them as wearable as they are stylish.
Affordable Summer Essential
Priced at $150 in the U.S. and £135 in the U.K., the Scubaqua strikes a balance between affordability and performance. While deep-sea diving may not be on the agenda, these watches are ready for any summer adventure. The Swatch Scubaqua collection is now available online and in Swatch stores worldwide.
