Not much! It's a cheap watch. If £200 is not someones idea of cheap then they should avoid this and buy a nice metal seiko/casio/timex etc.
It doesn't summon the vibe of a moon watch in any way for me, the plastic seems to have less quality than a normal swatch. Dial alignment is all wrong too. In short it's a laughable replica but it's fun.
I don't get much emotion from looking at it! maybe that seems trite but I love some of my cheap watches almost as much as the expensive ones. Maybe if we have a few adventures I'll love it more.
In terms of colour ways I could choose between Mars, Uranus and Pluto. None of those would have been my first choice but it's a decent option for summer and probably the easiest to resell if I don't get on with it.
Not sure these should even be £200 but I we were all laughing in the queue about how we are like little boys queuing up for a watch :)
Just to add, it's a decent watch as part of a summer outfit, works better from a distance. Also unlikely to get hit over the head for it in a London park which is what happened to somebody in London last week. Thoughts go out to them for a recovery, they had to have brain surgery and were on life support. I get all Charles Bronson about that kind of thing, really upsetting.
