Alright, guys, gather around, let’s talk about something that’s been on my radar lately – the OMEGA Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary. I’ve been digging into this watch, and let me tell you, it’s quite the piece.
First off, I started looking into the history of these Snoopy watches, and man, they’ve got a cool story. Turns out, they’re pretty sought after and usually go up in value over time. I mean, who wouldn’t want a watch that appreciates like that?
Now, I went ahead and checked out this 50th Anniversary edition. It’s not a limited edition, but from what I’ve gathered, people are all over it. And get this – when you flip it over, the caseback is where the magic happens. It’s got this awesome animation that’s totally different from the older Snoopy watches.
I did some more digging and found out that the first Snoopy Speedmaster was limited to 5441 pieces. Why that number? Well, it’s the length of time the Apollo 13 mission lasted. Then there’s the 45th Anniversary model, with just 1970 pieces – the year OMEGA got the Silver Snoopy Award.
After geeking out on the history, I looked at some other watches for comparison. The OMEGA Speedmaster, Tudor Black Bay, Rolex Submariner – you know, the usual suspects. But honestly, this Snoopy Speedmaster has something special that those others just don’t.
I got my hands on some details about the 50th Anniversary model. The reference number is 310.32.42.50.02.001, and it’s got that classic 42mm Speedmaster case. The dial is silver with blue accents, and it’s got this Ag925 engraving. Classy stuff.
- Condition: Brand spanking new.
- Year of Production: Most of them from 2021 or 2022.
- Box and Papers: You bet, the whole shebang – outer box, inner box, warranty booklet, you name it.
I even found a listing for one that was “like new, unworn” from 2022. Seriously, who buys a watch like this and doesn’t wear it? Anyway, it made me think – these watches are like pieces of art.
Finally, I stumbled upon some reviews, and one guy did a “One Year” review of owning this Speedmaster Silver Snoopy. I read through it, and it just confirmed what I was thinking. This watch isn’t just a timepiece, it’s an experience.
So, I began to look for the perfect one for me. I went through many online markets and finally found one that suits me the best. I bought it immediately with a little bit of a discount.
So there you have it – my journey into the world of the OMEGA Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary. It’s been a wild ride, and I’m pretty sure this watch is going to be a part of my collection for a long, long time.
