I finally got my hands on the OMEGA Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary watch! It was a journey, let me tell you.
It all started when I saw this beauty online. I mean, who doesn’t love Snoopy, right? And the Speedmaster? A classic. I knew I had to have it. I started by calling around some of my usual online shops, the ones that sometimes have those hard-to-find pieces. No luck. They all told me the same thing – this watch was hot, and basically impossible to get at the moment.
But I was determined. I kept digging, making calls, and sending emails. Finally, I decided to go straight to the source and try my luck with OMEGA’s official channels. I mean, the internet was full of stuff about how you could order a catalog online, 5-year warranties, and all that jazz, so I figured, why not give it a shot?
I spent hours on their website, and finally got a catalog online. There it was, in all its glory – the “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary. I was stoked! I read all the info about it. It’s not technically a limited edition, but everyone wants it. The back of the watch is super cool, way different from the older Snoopy Speedmasters. Those were limited editions, by the way. The first one in 2003 had 5,441 pieces, and the white one in 2015 only had 1,970. This new one came out in 2020.
After drooling over the catalog and website, I decided to take the plunge. I knew that it will take some time to wait, but I was prepared to get this watch.
And you know what? It was totally worth it. This watch is even more amazing in person. The blue and white colors are sharp, and that little Snoopy on the dial just makes me smile every time I look at it. Plus, the case back… let’s just say it’s a conversation starter.
So, yeah, it took some effort, but I finally scored my OMEGA Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary. And let me tell you, it was worth every bit of the hunt.
Here’s a quick rundown of what I did:
- Started searching: Checked online shops and got nothing.
- Went official: Tried OMEGA’s official channels.
- Found it: Stumbled upon it in their online catalog.
- Did my research: Read up on the watch’s details and history.
- Ordered it: Took the plunge and placed an order!
- Got it: Finally received the watch and was blown away!
My advice if you want one?
Be persistent! Don’t give up if the usual places don’t have it. Try OMEGA directly, and be prepared to possibly wait a bit. Trust me, it’s worth it.
