SISTEM51 HODINKEE STOPLIGHT NEON REMIX
The Backstory
SWATCH SISTEM51 HODINKEE STOPLIGHT NEON REMIX is our sixth collaboration with Swatch and is our most bold and playful model yet. One of the core tenets of Swatch\'s success since the first Swatch watch was introduced in 1983 is the sheer variety of designs available, which heightens the inherent collectability of each new release. You could buy a Swatch for any outfit and any occasion, and neither your wallet nor watch collection would be any worse for wear. Around 10,000 different Swatch watches have been released in the past four decades, resulting in some pretty wild and memorable designs. All we\'ve ever wanted to do with our Swatch collaborations is to tap into the brand\'s rich aesthetic history and leave a mark of our own, and this time we are taking a postmodern approach and \"remixing\" one of our favorite models ever from 1990, The Stoplight.
The \"51\" refers to the number of parts inside the fully mechanical auto-winding movement, a 100% Swiss-made marvel of modern industrial watchmaking that Swatch launched to critical acclaim in 2013. With 90 hours of power reserve on tap, an anti-magnetic mainspring made from Nivachron™, and titanium-based componentry that resists physical shocks, temperature swings, and atmospheric corrosion, the Sistem51 remains the most elegant, durable, and high-performing mechanical movement in its price category.

About Swatch
SWATCH launched its first plastic, quartz-powered watch in 1983, changing the course of Swiss watchmaking history. The brand would go on to become one of the most important forces in the industry and the namesake brand of the Swatch Group, which also owns traditional brands such as Omega, Tissot, and Hamilton. SWATCH\'s unabashedly bold take on what a wristwatch can be has made it synonymous with “Swiss watch” for many people and propelled watches into the pop culture conversation for more than three decades. With the introduction of the SISTEM51 mechanical watch in 2013, SWATCH proved that it’s a relevant a player today as ever.
