On 14 March 1969, four months before the Apollo 11 launch, Snoopy made it to the moon.
“I beat the Russians… I beat everybody,” the NASA mascot thinks to himself in Charles M. Schulz’s Peanuts strip for that week.
Now, the popular pup is putting his astronaut suit back on – a uniform he last dug out for his Apple TV+ debut, Snoopy in Space (a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes suggests the series is well worth a watch) – as perfect Omega replica watches and Swatch have assigned him a new moon-centric mission.
Mission celebrate the second birthday of the MoonSwatch in style.
The Peanuts-themed MoonSwatch doesn’t mark the first time the canine cartoon character has graced a Swatch watch, nor an UK AAA Omega fake watches one.
As any watch buff will inform you, if you let them, the former launched a line starring the entire Peanuts gang (Snoopy, Charlie, Woodstock, Lucy etc.) in late 2021.
And the latter’s relationship with the comic strip-turned-television series dates back to the early aughts.
In 2003, the luxury watchmaker released 1:1 cheap Omega Speedmaster replica watches finished with an Astronaut Snoopy sub-dial. The timepiece – crafted to commemorate the Silver Snoopy Award that Omega received in 1970 for playing a role in getting the Apollo 13 crew home safely – was limited to 5,441 pieces to acknowledge the exact length of the mission (142 hours, 54 minutes and 41 seconds).
Two other Snoopy-adorned fake Omega Speedmaster watches for men eventually followed: a black and white take released in 2015 to celebrate the 45th anniversary of the Apollo mission, and a blue and white one that dropped five years later to observe the 50th anniversary.
And although leaks and rumours pointed to a bioceramic imitation of one of these existing models, the Snoopy Omega x MoonSwatch has revealed itself to be its very own thing.
A full moon-inspired Swiss movements Omega replica watches that introduces a moonphase complication to the affordable collaboration.
In fact, this marks the first time ever that Swatch has combined a moonphase with a chronograph.
It’s here where Snoopy lives. Two Snoopys, actually, that move in the subdial at 2 o’clock. Along with a quote from a Peanuts comic strip that can only be viewed under UV light.
The third and final Snoopy touch is located on the caseback: where you’d usually find an accurate graphic of the moon on a best 2024 copy Omega Mission to the Moon watches, you get a Snoopy-fied moon instead. And you won’t require a telescope to spot his paw print.
As you’d expect, securing one on release day was a pursuit that proved as strenuous as an actual mission to the moon, but since this top super clone Omega MoonSwatch watches, like all others, is confirmed to be non-limited, exercising a little patience is sure to pay off.
As the wise Charlie Brown says in his Little Book of Wisdom, “live for today, look to tomorrow, rest this afternoon”.
