Omega Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary is one of the most distinctive modern Speedmasters. Since its introduction, the model has become hugely popular among collectors, and it is easy to see why.
The watch commemorates the Silver Snoopy Award presented to Omega by NASA in 1970 for its contribution to the space programme, particularly during the dramatic Apollo 13 mission.
The Ag925 silver dial is combined with blue subdials, indexes and hands. Snoopy in his spacesuit appears on the small-seconds counter at 9 o’clock.
A blue ceramic bezel with a white enamel tachymeter scale completes the design. For me, the combination of silver and deep blue works absolutely brilliantly.
The real fun starts when the watch is turned over. Activate the chronograph and Snoopy travels in the CSM above the far side of the Moon, while the Earth disc rotates once per minute.
Inside beats the manually wound Omega Calibre 3861. It provides approximately 50 hours of power reserve, features a Co-Axial escapement and is Master Chronometer certified by METAS.
Complete with all original boxes and documents dated 2023.
Condition is like new. The watch has only been tried on a few times.
