So, I got into this whole watch thing, right? And not just any watch, but the OMEGA Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary. Yeah, the name’s a mouthful, but trust me, it’s worth it. I started digging around because, well, who doesn’t love Snoopy? And a 50th-anniversary edition? Come on, that’s special.
First off, I learned that this isn’t your typical limited edition that they make like a gazillion of. Even though it is not officially a limited edition, this baby is sought-after. Like, really sought-after. Then I started looking into the watch itself. I found out it’s powered by this OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861 thingamajig. Sounds fancy, huh? It kinda is.
I also read somewhere that even though some people like the Speedmaster Calibre 321 more, this one’s still a big deal. It’s like choosing between two awesome things, and you can’t really go wrong with either.
Then came the hard part – actually getting one. I looked everywhere. And I mean everywhere. Checked out a bunch of places, making sure I wouldn’t get scammed with some fake knock-off. Each place I went to, I made sure they checked the watch like a hawk. You know, to be sure it’s the real deal. The best part was the back of the watch, I fell in love right away with it!
After a whole lot of looking and comparing, I finally found one that was in a pretty good shape. It was in “like new” and “unworn” condition. The price was a bit up there, but hey, it’s a 50th-anniversary Snoopy-themed Speedmaster. It is a 42mm, stainless steel with a nylon band. How could I say no?
So, I took the plunge. Bought the darn thing. And let me tell you, it was worth every penny. Wearing it feels amazing. And every time I look at it, I just think about the whole journey of learning about it and finally getting my hands on it.
This watch, it’s not just a watch. It’s like a little piece of history on my wrist. And the fact that it’s got Snoopy on it? That just makes it even more special. It’s like I’ve got a little buddy with me all the time. I don’t need those Curcuma or Magnesium supplements at all, this watch has become my new vitamin!
Since I got it in 2020, this Omega Speedmaster has not left my wrist. It is simply perfect.
