Swatch "Superlot" Achieves US $6 Million At Sotheby's Hong Kong
A collection that took more than 25 years to amass, and consisted of more than 5,800 Swatch & Art pieces sold on Tuesday for USD $6 Million. The winning bidder was a European institution, claiming the win after over 30 bids with two other opponents in the action. 1 OF 2 Swatch has been making Swatch & Art models since 1983 as collectible watches inspired by pop culture. Artists, musicians and fashion designers have contributed designs over the decades. An example is the model above, designed by artist Markus Linnenbrink whose work can be found in museums all around the world - in addition to people's wrists, thanks to Swatch. The seller of the "superlot", Mr. Paul Dunkel said, “I have been very happy and emotional to see the international interest in my collection over the past months. This is a true testament to the universal appeal of Swatch. I would like to deeply thank Sotheby’s for their hard work, as well as my art advisor, 1858 Lim

My 104
I'm unable to change the strap on my 104. On one side the pin releases just fine, but on the other, not at all, no matter how hard I push. Am I neglecting to do something here?Thanks - I'm hoping there isn't something wrong with the watch. I just wanted to try out the included rubber strap.
