Swatch Snoopy MoonSwatch Harvest Moon – Popcorn Motif Release on Sept 8

Mission to Earthphase Moonshine Gold Harvest Moon: Swatch’s New Popcorn-Inspired Snoopy MoonSwatch

Swatch has unveiled another playful twist in its MoonSwatch series with the Mission to Earthphase Moonshine Gold Harvest Moon edition, arriving just a month after the last Snoopy-themed release. While this version looks nearly identical to its predecessor, there’s a small but charming detail that sets it apart: a popcorn motif engraved on one of the Moonshine Gold-coated moonphase discs.

Instead of the fish-net design featured on the Sturgeon Moon, this edition carries a whimsical popcorn box illustration, complete with repeating corn kernel patterns in the background. It’s a subtle change, but one designed to keep collectors hooked.

A Quick Recap of the Design

For those who missed last month’s drop, here’s what the watch brings to the table:

Case & Strap: Navy-blue Bioceramic case with Swatch’s new hybrid rubber/Velcro strap.

Dial Details: Snoopy and Woodstock staring at Earth (via the Earthphase display) against a sparkling faux-aventurine starry background.

Moonphase Discs: Gold-coated complication discs, now with the Harvest Moon popcorn engraving.

Finishing Touches: Starry metallic blue accents across the handset, minute and second tracks.

Hidden Surprise: A UV-activated speech bubble appears above Snoopy with the phrase “I beat everybody…”.

Release Details

The Harvest Moon edition will be available exclusively on the full moon of September 8th at select Swatch boutiques. Price: $450.

Why It Matters

The popcorn design couldn’t be more fitting—because fans are grabbing their popcorn for every new Swatch release. Much like the earlier Moonshine Gold limited editions, this shows that Swatch is sticking to a predictable full-moon launch cycle.

Collectors and enthusiasts may debate whether this strategy is sustainable. Despite complaints of price hikes—from $380 to $400 and now $450 due to Swiss tariffs—the MoonSwatch still draws long lines at stores, proving demand remains strong.

Our Take

At $450, the MoonSwatch no longer feels like a bargain. Yet, scarcity and the fun, whimsical Snoopy designs keep buyers coming back. While seasoned watch fans may feel “limited-edition fatigue,” it’s clear that Swatch is aiming at a broader audience beyond traditional collectors.

At the end of the day, the Harvest Moon Popcorn Snoopy MoonSwatch adds just enough novelty to keep the hype alive—and if you want one, you’ll likely need to line up early.
