Hi Patrick, where did you see it, Paris? Did not know it was being delivered it or maybe you saw the prototype?

Anyways I think it looks amazing and actually prefer it to the 2nd Snoopy (Silver Snoopy). I am biased as I am a Speedmaster fan and have been for over 20 years.
Comparing the chrono pusher feel of the caliber 3861 to a Datograph is night and day as they are not in the same class as this caliber is not considered "haute horlogerie" and we also need to remember that the Datograph is a column wheel chrono with lateral clutch while the caliber 3861 is cam-actuated.
Thanks for the early mini review. Did you happen to take any photos?

I’m surprised...

I was betting that you’d like it at least because of its resemblance to the blue CK 2998, no? Or maybe for that reason you’re not impressed, which I could understand.
Snoopy 🚀

Why are you making up rumors? You have no idea what will happen or what Omega will do.

321 vs Snoopy
By: Boxcar : October 5th, 2020-11:01
I would tend to agree . If you really want a 321 you likely should not wait to order and be prepared to wait a long time. Not sure what the situation is for the new snoopy. I would like both . I have a fondness for Snoopy growing up reading Peanuts . In s...
Well . . .

Just another Speedy
By: openworked : October 5th, 2020-09:53
It's just another Speedy to me. The fact that it's a non-LE means that Omega intends to produce as many as possible but not be held to producing a set amount if for some reason it doesn't sell well.
Agreed on value!

Also perhaps this is a re-emerging trend on animation on case backs
gimmicky case back and stiff price doesn't do it for me

The main attraction of a "professional" watch is that it could be used by professionals... While we (at least I) are not astronauts the idea that astronauts could / did use the same "professional" watch is part of the attraction... But no astronaut would ...
Exactly what I was thinking ,

Kind of an Circus watch ,looking nice though but nothing to bare the name Professional on the dial
Hmmmmm

Omega has been successful with its Snoopy models. But I think you should stop when you are on top and not milk the cow as long as possible. This is an example of this, I think. Admittedly, they think the opposite of Rolex. Here we charge double list price...
It was just my personal opinions
By: Jocke - Bad Santa : October 5th, 2020-12:40
Of course, there are buyers for this watch, I'm completely convinced of that. I mostly reacted to the fact that it feels like Omega makes these models to hype the brand and often sell them before they are released on the market. Admittedly, it looks like ...
Saw it in REAL today
By: patrickh : October 21st, 2020-11:49
Firstly, I found that the blue is darker than reported on photos, and I prefer the real blue color. The case fits nicely on my 165mm wrist even if the new strap is a little stiff. This should change with time and then will become comfy ;-) The 2 animation...
In fact, I had the chance to be at the right Boutique at the right time
By: patrickh : October 21st, 2020-12:32
when an OMEGA representative was doing his Boutique tour. He presented the new WORKING REAL model to Boutique teams. As I am well known from this Boutique and that I had asked for this model when available, they offers me to see and wear it ;-) The repres...
