I tell people I am not crazy. I am Stark ravin mad! I have been following these all week. Debating if I wanted to start collecting Seiko watches, or add on a few more Peanuts variations. I keep seeing these mystery snoopies. Hopefully they use the same Bettlach movements.

I still need to put the other 'Snoopy' back together, but I shot both clicksprings off somewhere in the ether. Probably could make one easy enough. Thought I found one, but it does not quite fit. One would think that with Incomplete parts for 6 or 9 watches there would be more clicksprings in the assorted (now sorted) parts.

Of course who knows what will catch my fancy while I wait for these to arrive.

There are so many threads, I was not sure if I should add on, or create this one. Decided on the latter. Or as they say, in for a penny in for a pound (although it is more like a Guinea these days,) These are online thrift store finds as well. One does seem to go back and forth on them like a tennis match.

Now I have to figure out an excuse to go to the Museum in Santa Rosa. Not as easy as it used to be when I had relations and work in the area. Sometimes if I had extra time I would stop by. Still have not actually ice skated in the Rink. Hard to realize Schultz would be 100.

Potentially you could stop your day job (s), somewhere back in the many threads is the tale of some one doing just that and only trading in Micky Mouse watches. I am sure the same could apply to Snoopies and variants as well, Snoopy Linus, Lucy, Charlie Brown etc

Indeed a century Charles "Sparky" Schultz
Original 1970s Bullion patch " Eyes on the Stars " referring to NASA's celestial navigation astronaut training program.
Between 1960 and 1972 the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo astronauts had several sessions in the Morehead Planetarium on the campus of the University of North Carolina in order to learn their way using the constellations from different angles & trajectories !
