The story on the dial
NASA astronauts give the Silver Snoopy Award for work that helps keep crews safe, and in 1970, after Apollo 13, Omega received one. For the 45th anniversary in 2015 Omega made this reference, limited to 1,970 pieces. Our photos show the details of that dial: Snoopy asleep on the counter at 9 o’clock, the words “Failure is not an option” and the question “What could you do in 14 seconds?” along the minute track. That question points to the 14-second engine burn the Apollo 13 crew timed with a Speedmaster.
A hand-wound Speedmaster
Our movement guide names ST19, a hand-wound type, for the Speedmaster and gives it 42-48 hours on a full wind. Wind it each morning; if it has lain in a drawer over the weekend, 20-30 turns of the crown get it going again.
Other Snoopy and white-dial options
The Speedmaster Snoopy 310.32.42.50.02.001 is Omega’s later Snoopy edition, also 42 mm and hand-wound. For a light dial at a smaller size, the Panda 311.32.40.30.02.001 is about 40 mm.
Size and water
Our size guide lists the 42 mm Speedmaster for wrists from 16.5 to 19 cm, and the short lugs keep it compact. It is a dry-land watch: fine in the rain, but keep it out of the pool and the shower.
Before dispatch
You get photos and a video of this watch, dial close-ups included, and it ships once you approve.
