Swatch trompe

New Swatch line demands a second look

By Hallie Engel

Swatch is releasing its new Trompe l’oeil collection, featuring watches with designs steeped in optical illusions.

Created to make the wearer “surprised and shocked at what they might find,” the watches are available in 10 styles, including the Follow Up, which resembles a zipper coming undone.

Other options play different tricks with the eye, including one whose rubber band first appears to be a metal chain, and another that resembles an old fashioned alarm clock.

Timepieces from the collection have an RRP of £38 to £76.
