  • Catalogue Essay

    Similar to previous Snoopy editions, the present Speedmaster also has the silver Snoopy medallion on the seconds counter at the 9 o’clock, which is modelled according to the actual silver pin received from NASA. The other two counters are decorated with beautiful azurage. The watch further boasts a marvellous blue ceramic tachymeter bezel with white markings, matching the sub-dials, luminous hands, and PVD angle-shaped indexes on the stunning silver dial, laser engraved with Ag925 on the center.

    The crown jewel of the watch is undoubtedly the design of the back dial. Flip the watch over, and the wearer would be ecstatic to be see a delicate Earth disc rotating in seconds-sync with the running seconds hand on the front dial. A surprise awaits you when you start the chronograph, and an animated Snoopy sitting in a Command and Service Module (CSM) would show up to make a revolution around the moon.

    This magnificent “Silver Snoopy Award” is a great wristwatch that would leave you with “Eyes in the Stars”, as well as the irresistible urge to continuously engage with the chronograph function. Preserved in “like-new” condition with its original accessories, one should not miss the opportunity to own this adorable and special timepiece.

  • Artist Biography

    Omega

    Swiss • 1848

    Omega's rich history begins with its founder, Louis Brandt, who established the firm in 1848 in La Chaux de Fonds. In 1903, the company changed its name to Omega, becoming the only watch brand in history to have been named after one its own movements. A full-fledged manufacturer of highly accurate, affordable and reliable watches, its sterling reputation enabled them to be chosen as the first watch company to time the Olympic Games beginning in 1932. Its continued focus on precision and reliability ultimately led their Speedmaster chronograph wristwatch to be chosen by NASA in 1965 — the first watch worn on the moon.

    Key models sought-after by collectors include their first, oversized water-resistant chronograph — the reference 2077, early Speedmaster models such as the CK 2915 and 2998, military-issued versions of the Seamaster and oversized chronometer models such as those fitted with their prestigious caliber 30T2Rg.
