Congratulations! It's an awesome looking watch. Picked mine up in January and quickly became one of the favorites in my collection. I kept mine on the strap and as others have said it loosens up. Not to mention the blue strap really highlights the blue subdials and bezel. I placed mine on a deployant for ease of putting on/off.

Congrats! I was able to try one at an OB a little while back and I agree with you that the pearl-like dial with blue is really easy on the eyes in person.

Congratulations my friend! Stunner of a watch and easily one of my favorite Omegas. Ordering the bracelet is a great move as well.
I hope you thoroughly enjoy it!

Thank you Dave The deployant is an interesting idea … I’m not fond of the pin buckle and due to my wrist size, I have to wear it on the second tightest position.

I may do this in addition to the bracelet to mark the strap more wearable

Thank you my friend. It’s always been on my radar, but I’ve shred away due to price on the secondary market. I luckily found a seller who made a fair proposal and wanted to see it go to an enthusiastic. It’s from 2023 and was unworn

Thanks buddy. It’s a fun one for sure. Andrea loves it too, and asked me how hard it would be to order a bracelet to fit her

Congrats buddy....

Amazing pickup, you won't ever regret it. The Snoopy 50th will age like a fine wine. The Snoopy and 321 is the ultimate 1 2 Speedy punch, they don't get more opposite and can easily live side by side in a collection.

Thank you my friend, you’re absolutely right they are two polar opposites, in a good way

Thanks Erich. Really loving it. It came as quite the surprise. Totally worth it, and Omega really makes amazing timepieces. If any other established Swiss watchmaker made the Snoopy 3, it would cost significantly more.

Congratulations on your new watch Brian.

I’m wearing mine, we’ll as it both mine and my wife’s, our’s now.

You views on the Snoopy and SS 321 are interesting. Since I got my 321 I’ve become far more interested in Omegas. My wife has worn a Snoopy 2 for years but I tended to wear Daytonas as my first choice. I then bought a new moonwatch. I bought one of the previous versions when the new version came out about three and a half years ago, thinking about it may have been four and a half years ago now, and I wear it on a Snoopy 2 strap. I then got a 321 which, because of problems with the bracelet, I wear on a black leather Omega strap with pin buckle. If I haven’t worn either of these for a week or so I tend to miss them now and the Daytonas are worn a lot less.

I would like a bracelet for the Snoopy 3 but as my wife and I share it, one bracelet would not fit both wrists so it has stayed on the Omega strap.

I’m really enjoying the Speedmaster ‘phase’ I’m currently going through and I’m looking forward to seeing if there will be a Snoopy 4 next year.

I hope you carry on enjoying your watches, they are both very nice.

Looks so good Brian. Congrats again on such a cool addition to your collection. You have me totally torn between getting the white Speedmaster or biting the bullet and buying this one preowned for roughly double the price. That silver dial and blue ceramic bezel bring it up to another level. Wish I could actually see one in person. I think I'll hold out until I can take a look at the white dial, and then make a decision at that point. Enjoy that new Snoopy!
