I remember everyone in school had them. I never wore watches so never had one. Still don't wear them unless I'm dressed up. I see the stands for Swatch in the malls and sometimes am sorely tempted to get one just for old times sake.

I didn't buy a Swatch watch until 1991. We bought his and hers Swatches when we got engaged! They were quite boring for Swatches dark grey straps, white faces with black numbers.
MTA just found a picture of mine

Had one, not sure what it looked liked since it was awhile ago.

I got my first in 1987/8. It had a grey face and light grey strap, but I bought one of those red/blue plastic clip-on guards to make it more colourful. Everyone had to interchange them... the more colourful the cooler they were! I then updated it to a gigantic Swatch with a thick cloth strap - black with funny designs on them. It was a monster!
