Alright, let’s talk about this watch, the OMEGA Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary. I’ve been eyeing this piece for a while, and I finally pulled the trigger and got one for myself. Here’s how it went down.
First off, I started by doing a ton of research online. I read through forums, watched countless videos, and basically tried to soak up every bit of information I could find about this watch. You know, just to make sure I was making the right decision, because, let’s be real, this isn’t a cheap watch.
After feeling pretty confident, I started hunting for one. This wasn’t easy. These Snoopy Speedmasters are not always lying around, you know. I contacted some boutiques, and put my name down on a few waitlists.
Then, the waiting game began. It felt like forever! I kept checking my email and phone, hoping for that call. During this time, I started thinking, “Did I make a mistake? Maybe I should have just gone for a regular Speedmaster.” You know, that kind of stuff that goes through your head when you’re waiting.
The Call
Finally, after a few months, I got the call from one of the boutiques! They had one available. My heart started racing, and I almost dropped my phone. I told them I’d be there ASAP.
I rushed to the boutique, and there it was, in the metal. It looked even better in person. I tried it on, and it fit perfectly. I knew I had to have it.
The whole process of paying and getting all the paperwork done was a bit of a blur. I was just so excited to finally have the watch in my hands. I walked out of the boutique with the biggest grin on my face, like a kid in a candy store.
Living With It
Wearing it for the first time was awesome. I found myself just staring at the dial, especially the little Snoopy on the subdial. And that caseback? Forget about it. It’s seriously cool with the Earth and the moon, and the little Snoopy flying around.
- I wore it every day for a week straight.
- I took a bunch of pictures. I mean, a lot. My phone is full of them.
- I even showed it off to a few friends who are into watches. They were pretty jealous, not gonna lie.
So yeah, that’s my story of getting the OMEGA Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary. It was a bit of a journey, but totally worth it. This watch is definitely a keeper, and I’m pretty sure I’ll be wearing it for years to come.
