Swatch Olympic Legends Historical Set, a 1996 limited edition NOS collection of nine original Swiss‑made quartz watches (Chrono, Scuba, Gent, Loomi) with the original presentation case and historical documentation.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Here is one of the rarest and most ambitious Swatch releases ever launched. Created to celebrate the Atlanta 1996 Olympic Games and the centenary of the modern Games, this Olympic Legends collection brings together 9 watches (including Chrono, Scuba and Gent models) that pay tribute to historic sports legends and to emblematic Olympic editions (such as Tokyo 1964, Rome 1960 or Seoul 1988).
It is an original private collection piece, impeccably preserved since its release.
The set is in NOS (New Old Stock) condition, never used, preserving the full factory integrity of both the watches and the imposing presentation case.
The packaging is, in itself, a design piece: a large-format fold-out album that details the history of each model and of the athlete or event it represents. An ensemble of historical and symbolic value that is priceless to find complete and in this condition of preservation.
Condition
• NOS (New Old Stock) Condition - Watches never used and never removed from their original holder.
• Complete: Includes the original luxury case and all historical documentation that accompanies the edition.
• May require battery replacements (due to age and for movement preservation).
• Photographs are an integral part of the description.
Features
• Brand: Swatch
• Model: Olympic Legends Historical Set
• Year of release: 1996 (Atlanta Olympic Games)
• Edition: Limited and numbered
• Contents: Set of 9 themed watches (Chrono, Scuba, Gent, Loomi)
• Movement: Quartz (Swiss Made)
• Presentation: Folding rigid case with illustrations and historical texts.
Piece of the “Holy Grail” for Swatch enthusiasts and collectors of Olympic memorabilia. In terms of size and rarity, it is an investment likely to appreciate in value over time.
The item will be carefully packed and shipped with maximum security, shipping insurance and tracking number. I am a seller with a 100% positive feedback history, guaranteeing total confidence in the transaction.
