Okay, so, I’ve been eyeing this OMEGA Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary watch for a while now. I finally decided to go for it and make the purchase online. Let me tell you, it was quite an experience!
First, I started doing some research. I mean, this isn’t just any watch, it’s a tribute to the Silver Snoopy Award that NASA gave to OMEGA back in 1970. Apparently, Snoopy has been NASA’s safety watchdog since the ’60s. Who knew, right? There are a lot of collection captures the essence of Snoopy’s charm, humor, and timeless appeal.
Then I looked into the watch itself. It’s a Speedmaster, which is already pretty cool, but this one is special. It’s driven by the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861, I learned that it means it’s super precise and resistant to magnetic fields.
- I found out that there are a few versions of the Silver Snoopy Speedmaster, but this one is to celebrate the 50th anniversary, and it is a non-limited edition.
- I browsed through a bunch of websites that had information and pictures.
- I started looking for online stores that were selling it.
Finally, I found a reputable online store. I carefully went through the ordering process, double-checking everything to make sure it was the right model.
I placed the order and patiently (not really) waited for it to arrive. When the package finally came, I was so excited! I carefully opened it up, and there it was, the Silver Snoopy Speedmaster in all its glory. It was even more stunning in person.
Putting it on my wrist for the first time was awesome. It’s not just a watch, it’s a piece of history, a conversation starter, and a reminder of a really cool collaboration between OMEGA and NASA. I’ve been wearing it every day since, and I’m absolutely in love with it.
What I learned during this experience?
This whole process taught me a lot about the history of the Silver Snoopy Award and the significance it has for OMEGA. I got an amazing watch that I’ll treasure for years to come.
