More than CHF 500,000 raised by Sotheby’s x Omega MoonSwatch Moonshine for Charity Orbis

Omega has sold 11 MoonSwatch Moonshine Gold suitcases in a dedicated Sotheby’s online auction for a total of CHF 534,670 helping to raise essential money for the brand’s long-term partner, Orbis International. Auctioned between February 12 and 24, each of the unique cases contained the 11 Omega x Swatch “Mission to Moonshine Gold” watches – the first time these versions had ever been offered as one set, and the first time that the special MoonSwatch suitcase was available to buy. 100% of the auction proceeds will be given to Orbis, which fights avoidable blindness and vision loss around the world. Through its programs and on board the Flying Eye Hospital, Orbis has provided eye care for millions of patients, while also training hundreds of thousands of eye care professionals in areas with the greatest need globally. Each of the watches is crafted with a seconds hand coated in 18K Moonshine Gold, and also reveals its own special detail, such as a strawberry pattern for the Strawberry Moon in July, or a flower pattern for the Flower Moon in May.
