Icon5 MoonSwatch skin staining

I’ve read a few reports of the plastic color of the MoonSwatch leaking on skin.

But, I haven’t seen photos and am not sure if it’s just internet noise or a real problem.

Anyone have any photos to share or concrete information to share? Like a statement from Swatch?

Bruce Williams did a you tube video on it. It is real, but only seems to affect the blue color at this point.

Sure would buy hard if they hit online soon, but I’m starting to move on to other items of interest. If it’s not a limited release, then release.

Blue is what I read too, but haven’t seen photos. I guess for now Neptune is out.

If you Google your thread title you'll see all sorts of pictures, forum posts, reviews, youtuber tests, conspiracy theories and official Swatch responses.

Thanks. I did the search and, yes, plenty of resources are out there.


This article, for example, had a lot to say, including Swatch's response:

https://soyacincau.com/2022/04/03/mo...ch-has-to-say/

Needless to say, I'm not getting a Neptune (the "Stainmaster"?).

And I doubt I'll get any others, either. Too bad, as I was considering Mercury, the Sun and/or Neptune.
