Great watch and good that it's not LE but...

called up the Boutique only to be told that they are not taking any orders for customers with no history of purchases with them...then there is a waiting list and you know that your best bet is the grey market. Bah humbug!

For all those who are not sure why the new Snoopy 50th Anniversary is a special watch, I suggest you watch the video below...

As I stated in the Snoopy thread, I was GOBSMACKED when I saw the details and what this watch offers in terms of originally, uniqueness, and most importantly FUN !! It literally made me scream like a child and laugh out loud. Needless to say, I was touche... 

I take it . . .

And after seeing the video, Omega could not take my money quickly enough. I would fly directly to Bienne in a helicopter if it meant I could get it on my wrist tomorrow πŸ€£πŸ˜‚

Heli to Bienne? . . .

Same thing, by far! [nt]

+1

Agreed it is a very cool complication

 
 By: VinnieD : October 5th, 2020-13:01
I like it when there is an additional info on the back (power reserve at Panerai or JLC, chronograph for some rare Franck Mullers/MIH watches) Here, the complication is just pure fun indeed

+1 thats how I m luking at it - the animated earth and snoopy is a complication just like moon phase and an engaging one at that. Though I have reservations about thickness and all that redundant text. As usual I take time to gather details.

Let me make a call... I mean, I really need to make a call, to my Son’s teacher πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Worse thing is I was supposed to go to the manufacturer this week, the 7th and 8th as I was invited my Omega and the boutique but it was canceled due to borders closing and quarantine...

Sorry to hear that Sire..

That β€œvisit” would have been awesome... These Speedmasters are getting up there $$$$.. This Snoopy and the EW, which I get it, certain movements and other cool things, are costing OMEGA buyers a good penny. I remember I bought my Apollo 11 45th for like 6... 

Well, a couple of things new here in the US

Many chain hotels are getting ready to file, hurrah for bankruptcy lawyers... Many airlines have laid off, not furloughed, up to 40% of their staff. Sorry to rant, someone I know, their daughter was a flight attendant and was just laid off. Well, guess th...

While I may not share all of your enthusiasm for this one, I do like it.

 
 By: Jay (Eire) : October 5th, 2020-15:38
It’s fun, it’s a little playful. It reminds me exactly of what the original Snoopy said to me when I saw it 15-16 years ago. Could a grown man own a watch with a cartoon character on the dial? You bet your ass he could....and I bought it. I think today th...

GOBSMACKED ! Great choice of word to describe it, J!

 
 By: Seeks : October 5th, 2020-23:25
When I first saw the video, I was glad that I told my Omega Boutque months ago that I am in for this one, too. Very creative idea from Omega on the case back animation. Maybe they are starting a trend here Looking forward to seeing it. Best regards

Completely agreeπŸ‘ [nt]

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : October 8th, 2020-09:16

Yeah, and to you I most likely could have received my 321 directly from the manufacturer which would have been special and then possibly also see the new Snoopy in person prior to deliveries

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : October 8th, 2020-09:20
It would have been a special trip and a very memorable one which would have made it that much more special and sentimental. Alas, it was not meant to be due to COVID-19 restrictions. The trip was postponed for the future so hopefully it will also be a goo...
