So, I got this new watch, the OMEGA Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary, from a specialty store, and I’m pretty stoked about it. I’ve been eyeing this piece for a while, and let me tell you, the whole experience of getting it was quite something.
It all started when I saw some buzz online about this limited edition Speedmaster. I mean, who doesn’t love Snoopy, right? And the fact that it’s tied to the 50th anniversary of the Silver Snoopy Award made it even more special. So, I started digging around. I found a few posts and articles mentioning that it was available at some specialty stores. That got me going.
First thing I did was hit up the local OMEGA boutiques. I called them up, asked if they had the “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary edition in stock. One of the stores confirmed they had it. Boom! I was out the door.
When I got to the store, the staff were super helpful. They brought out the watch, and man, it was even cooler in person. The blue and white color scheme is just so crisp, and that caseback with Snoopy in his little space module? Awesome. The sales guy explained all the features, like how the caseback has an animation of Snoopy going around the moon. Pretty neat, huh?
I tried it on, and it felt perfect on my wrist. The 42mm size is just right, not too big, not too small. It comes with this really nice blue nylon fabric strap that matches the dial. And you know what? The quality is just top-notch. You can tell it’s a well-made watch.
I was pretty much sold at this point. We talked about the price, which is a bit steep, but hey, it’s a limited edition piece, and it’s got some history behind it. After thinking it over for like, a minute, I decided to go for it.
They boxed it up all nice and fancy, with the original box and papers. They explained the warranty and how to take care of it. Honestly, the whole buying experience was smooth. No pressure, just good vibes.
Now, I’ve been wearing this Speedmaster for a few days, and I’m loving it. It’s a conversation starter, for sure. A buddy of mine noticed it right away, and we ended up talking about watches and space stuff for like an hour. Plus, it’s just fun to look at. Every time I check the time, I get a little kick out of seeing that Snoopy on the dial.
Here are the things I found out:
- Brand: OMEGA, of course.
- Model: Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary.
- Model Number: 310.32.42.50.02.001.

So yeah, that’s my little adventure of getting the OMEGA Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary. It’s a fantastic watch. If you’re a watch guy or just a Snoopy fan, I’d say it’s definitely worth checking out. Just be ready to move fast because they seem to be going quick!
