So... what else can we say about Snoopy 50?

I HAVE got a £1000 deposit at my local AD and always had to put a deposit there but thats AD

Yes the two other OBs I put my name down initially with did not take deposits. But as I said some OBs (depends on the franchise operator) will accept a deposit...

Now there could be 10 watchmakers making Snoopy-3 watches. We don't know the exact #.

He told me its the same process that Omega uses to make the Apollo-11 50 and the Apollo 8 DSOM. And that's the reason why he can't get anymore Apollo 8 DSOM.

I think this might not be entirely accurate. These watches are in the main mass produced with different parts produced in different places. The construction of the Apollo 11 is no more difficult than the standard moon watch - just the parts are different.

I can imagine each watch may be subject to QA by one person however.

In the meantime... enjoy this.
Pretty good video of the Snoopy with images from different angles.
Unfortunately I don’t understand anything of what the guy is saying... Besides “snoopy” :)

Interesting images from this video. I never knew the Chrono Sub dials are a darker blue then the blue in the seconds snoopy sub Dial....

Seems the hands are also the darker blue. Maybe they wanted the Snoopy Sub Dial to pop more and make it a bit of a lighter shade?

I believe it’s because the light is hitting the dial from the left.
The blue should be the same tone IMO.

... actually you might be right!
We need to check more pics from Omega to verify this. The effect may be due to the material of the subdial, the texture is definitely different.

This is very interesting. As far as I know, the uk OB bt are instructed not to accept any deposit. But i know things could happen.

Robert Jan, has mentioned that there will be more than 5000 pieces, so I am not sure about the 2000 pieces produced per year. Definitely there will not be 2000 pieces this year. So Omega will produce this piece until 55 anniversary??

I am also one of fewer lucky guys to have played with this snoopy. I have got the same info like what Robert Jan stated. The snoopy is just stunning. Can’t wait any longer!

Wow you are lucky. How did you get the chance to see one in the metal?

Post some incoming pics when yours arrives. I have to imagine you’re in the initial VIP batch.

Thanks for posting these photos.

When I see both watches together like this I'm getting more and more convinced by, and attracted to, the Snoopy 3 watch.

So how do you like the blue on the watch? How would you describe it? I was wondering because it looks a lot like the CK2998 in blue.

Thanks!

It's not the same as the CK blue. It looks a bit darker. It is better to see it in person. I was also wondering about the blue when I saw it in picture. But now I must say I like this blue, it's quite vibrant

Amazing, thanks for sharing. Did you just receive the watch today from your OB? I guess we can start seeing a few incoming threads this week.

Did they give any indication on allocations if it would be limited/hard to get etc

[wlchuccc]

believe what Robert Jan has said, it won't be less than 5000 pieces. However, I was told we should not expect many this year. I have no idea about the number for the first batch. The only news is that the first batch should be available to us next week or before the 10th nov, hope this helps
