A Swatch watch is a watch made by Swatch, the Swiss brand launched in 1983 by the Swatch Group's predecessor to compete with inexpensive quartz watches during the "quartz crisis," known for affordable, colorful plastic-cased designs. (Swatch)
Propstore adds a production-acknowledged copy: the watch Jet Li's Liu Jian wears throughout Kiss of the Dragon was sold as "a facsimile Swatch® with a leather strap", a prop imitating the brand rather than a Swatch product. (Propstore)
