The chronograph in my Snoopy has been running continuously for over 48 hours! I haven't noticed any irregularities. The indicator on the right sub-dial jumps smoothly every minute, as does the hour on the lower one (this one does not move by leaps and bounds, but slowly moves forward). Over the entire period, the movement accelerated by 1.7s, giving an average of +0.9s/day. I'm delighted! ��



I already liked him! ��

Great results Mario.

I left the chrono hand on my 321 running yesterday and only realized this morning when I put my watch back on

The result I recorded is surprisingly good, to be honest - I did not expect it. At the end of the power reserve, the deviation has the right to increase, but what the 3861 has already shown has put me in a euphoric mood. Viva la Omega!

That does look nice on that bracelet! I didn't realize there was so such color gradation with the blue on the bezel and sub dials. I like it.

I am waiting patiently. According to the latest information from AD, the waiting period for a new bracelet has been extended to a minimum of 2 months.

Terribly stiff, I also have trouble fastening the buckle and then unfastening it. It fits like a headband and the case itself sticks out from the wrist. This original strap is very uncomfortable.

I try to wear this belt as much as I can. I started with the power reserve length test.

Omega Snoopy power reserve length test with 3861 movement with chronograph off completed. I started the fully wound watch on February 12 at 3:30 p.m. sharp. It stopped on February 15 at 8:34. So he worked 65 hours and 4 minutes. After the first 55 hours, the movement accelerated by a total of 3.6 s, giving an average deviation of +1.6 s/day, in the second measurement after 63 hours it was 5.5 s in total, giving an average acceleration of +2.1 s/day. The power reserve declared by the manufacturer is 50 hours, the actual one recorded in the test was therefore better than the catalog one by over 15 hours. The average deviation in the declared first 50 hours amounted to approx. +1.6s/day and grew along with the developing drive (tension) spring. I'm impressed - Omega did a good job!

No, the watch was in the box. This watch cannot be worn on the original strap.

I’ve heard a few people say this but neither me nor my wife have had any problems with the strap.

I wore it one hole too loose for a few days to break it in, but since then I’ve worn it correctly adjusted with no problems!

There also does not appear to be any shortage of photos of people wearing the watch on it’s original strap even in this thread.

And here the question arises, how many users wear it on this extremely inconvenient belt, and how many dress Snoopy only to shoot a good photo.

I’ve had a Snoopy since July last year and only ever worn it on the original strap. It was stiff in the beginning but fine after a few days.

mario1971 I fully accept that it does look really good on a bracelet. Our's would probably be on one if it wasn't for the fact that my wife and I share it and our wrists sizes are too different to use a bracelet.

You said that "This watch cannot be worn on the original strap" in post 50, I'm saying that it can.

You appear to be now saying that it looks better on a bracelet, may be, but it can be comfortably worn on it's original strap and to say otherwise is wrong!

I will try to wear the original belt again and wear it for a few days.

The coolest thing about this watch is on the case back.
