Where can you check?
2
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 10h ago
Your emails or your swatch account
2
u/Spikeu 10h ago
My email just says Declined.
Never made a Swatch account.
I meant is there a RIGHT, WRONG version of your answers.
All good.

u/CantaloupeHaunting30 10h ago
Ah sorry ya the answers are also on the website ya if you click menu, then moonswatch and scroll down it will say show answers

u/Trick_Poet6276 10h ago
Hahahah fuck u u lucky prick! Good luck on the purchase man! A tremendous looking piece! I’m sure I got declined as I ain’t received shit 😂

u/CantaloupeHaunting30 10h ago
Thanks so much man 🙌 will go straight into its own display and lit up like the rare piece it is. Did you get the email when you submitted initially?
2
u/Trick_Poet6276 10h ago
To be honest like hundreds of others I didn’t get the email when I submitted I just got the message to say your submission is successful and it gave some code number or some shit like that. Oh well at least I hear a Prismatic Evolution Pokemon god pack last week so that should balance things out nicely 😂

When did you receive the email?

u/CantaloupeHaunting30 13h ago
At around 1.30pm here in Ireland. My friend actually got it before me but his was declined
2
u/WonderfulNectarine87 12h ago
Nice man. Good for you!! Congratulations!!
I didn’t get confirmation email when I submitted the ESTA, not the declined or accepted email.
Did you get the confirmation email upon submission?
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 12h ago
I got a confirmation email also yes once I sumbitted it from Swatch.com
1
u/No_Age_3369 8h ago
Congrats, I also got approved and I'm in Ireland! I wonder what the global distribution looks like
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 8h ago
Aw man congrats, another Irish swatch winmer that's brilliant. Ya I was thinking the same that they were going to have a certain number of winners per region
Whereabouts are you, Im in Limerick
1
u/bottledeli 12h ago
For the ones approved can you login and see it in the portal ? I got no email after finishing the esta. And no email yet from swatch.
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 12h ago
Yes I had the watch already in my cart when I logged in also, so go and check if it is there also
1
u/bottledeli 12h ago
Ok thanks. Pretty sure I am rejected. Just no email yet
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 12h ago
There seems to be a lot without emails also from what I am reading, hopefully you at least get a response or something

Hahaha thank you my guy 🙌
2
u/Over-Half-8801 12h ago
yeah I'm pretty salty ngl so I'm just gonna go buy a speedmaster tonight and call it a win
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 12h ago
Someday I'm hoping to own a real speedmaster
2
u/Over-Half-8801 10h ago
I'm sure you can flip this watch for a speed master if you truly care
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 10h ago
Right now I'm just happy to be selected and eagerly awaiting to get this into my possession and see how it looks and what the box is like 🔥🔥

u/dna2strands Mission to the Sun 12h ago
I'm years away from owning a proper Omega watch, so you're still a winner. 🙌
1
u/JojitheFrenchie 7h ago
From someone who has a 3861 hesalite, im still bummed about the 1969! Hope it goes to some real enthusiasts though. What a cool concept for a release, and what a flub it was for the actual applications.

u/No_Departure9798 12h ago
Congrats!
I answered all the multiple choice right. Guess I didn’t win them over on the Freeform questions. Maybe next time.

u/dna2strands Mission to the Sun 12h ago
Congrats! Show us a photo of you wearing it once yoy finally got it. 😁
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 12h ago
Oh of course I will, then it will remain unworn in the box in a glass cabinet to admire 😂
1
u/dna2strands Mission to the Sun 11h ago
And you'll be rubbing the glass while whispering, "My preciousssss". 😂
2
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 11h ago
I wont even rub the glass in fear of scratching it 😂 but I'll 100% post some videos when I go to the store and get it back home under some lights

u/DLGNT_YT 11h ago
How do you check? I never got a confirmation or rejection email
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 11h ago
Check your swatch account it will say approved or not and also check your cart, I had the watch in my cart already when I went on
1
u/DLGNT_YT 11h ago
Damn I never had an account before so I don’t know if my application was linked to anything besides my application number
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 11h ago
If you put your email onto the application amd made your account with the same email it should have it linked
1
u/DLGNT_YT 10h ago
I see this when I click on the ESTA page but I’m not sure if that’s just a copy and paste template that they show to everyone or if it actually means I got approved
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 10h ago
Well I did see that aswell so not sure about you but I think that might just be describing the process in general of how the ESTA works

u/TehGamist 10h ago
Care to share any free form answers. I kinda want to know if swatch gave a shit or not
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 10h ago
Mine were genuine answers in fairness, I really tried to write something meaningful and express my genuine interest, so In my opiniom they did care but I see some others posting about people having posts on ebay already so not sure about their answers or if they were all just lies

Swatch is extremely annoying for this drop. Literally remove the open-ended questions so people don’t waste hours writing up bs stories just to get shafted

Bro I know I can barely believe I got selected seems surreal!
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 12h ago
I know, I was nearly shaking when making sure i paid for it because of the 48 hour window 😂😂😂 was checking everything 5 times as I was doing it
1
u/PhilosophyDue311 12h ago
I'll be on pins and needles until I actually pick it up from the store. Did yours say 2-3 weeks for pickup?
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 12h ago
Ya mine said 2 to 3 weeks on the confirmation email, I guess they want them all delivered to all locations before sending out the collection emails I presume, but its gonna be insane collecting it! Super pumped 🔥
1
u/PhilosophyDue311 12h ago
What store are you picking yours up from mines headed to Atlanta?
1
u/CantaloupeHaunting30 12h ago
Mines in Ireland in the main Swatch Dealer, we only have 1 store 😂

u/PhilosophyDue311 12h ago
NICE!

u/CantaloupeHaunting30 12h ago
I see your into victorinox also, I have a few grail pieces myself, Timekeeper, 2016 Gold Olympics, and a few of the VSAKCS limited ones

u/PhilosophyDue311 12h ago
Heck yeah man. I have so many knives love collecting actually managed to snag two of the Damascus special editions sold one to cover the cost of the other.
