Most of the Swatch watches I have are dial watches, with a few using other display means but still rotating. Today is my first digital Swatch watch.
The watch is called Netsurfer, and has the model number SQB100. It came out in the Fall/Winter collection from 1998, and is one of the Swatch digital family which was first released as part of that collection.
It is a large plastic watch with an oval display. Control is with 4 large buttons around the edge of the case and a button on the front for the el-backlight. Time is shown across the centre with 6 digits (including slightly smaller seconds) and below that is the day and date. The strap is green and black fabric, with a green back to match the watch design. The battery is quite an unusual size at a CR1632, and I think is the only watch i have with this particular battery type.
The different modes are all shown with a little icon above the main digits, and the time is marked by a spiky bubble (like the 'wham' or 'pow' from the old 60s batman TV series) with the word 'now'. For the other modes dual time is marked by a cartoon aeroplane, stopwatch by a rabbit, timer by a cartoon bomb, and alarm by a rooster.
