I have MANY more Swatches, but I’ve bought them on eBay, so they don’t have many stories to go with them.

The fake Swatch doesn’t have any numbers on the back, but the battery case looks just like an original Swatch. Here is a link to a photo of the counterfeit next to an original.

I have a couple of questions about your fake Swatch. Does the back of the watch case have any numbers? And does the battery go in the same way as a real Swatch watch? Hope you plan on buying more swatches and writing about them in the future. - Wayne D.</p> Hi Laura, I just finished reading all your Swatch stories and enjoyed them all!
