    It's surprising that deliveries were made over the runup to Christmas and New Years, a busy time for all retailers who are usually preoccupied with selling Christmas gifts. People will get their watches eventually, just remain calm and don't obsess over it, your time will come.

    I can't get upset at these efforts for early buyers to try to flog them at silly prices, there are always people out there who will try to make money. Whether they sell or not who knows, but there is a lot of money sloshing around and you never know when a big fish might take the bait.

    For those that got the piece enjoy your holiday gift. The rest of us will continue to wait, but we know we will get our call to pickup the piece in 2021. Happy Holidays to all.

    Merry Snoopy Christmas WatchNurse and all. May Snoopy rain down on us like Australia soon. Stay patient everyone! I need to stop looking a pictures, it’s not helping. Such a beautiful watch, on top of the history it is celebrating.

    Exact, but without rushing, I'll have it for sure, but I'm not in the same rush that I have when I want a Rolex.

    Did you get this while visiting your OB and inquiring about the Snoopy, or did it randomly show up at your home?

    My tricky wife and the boutique managed to completely surprise me for Christmas. I really had no expectation of getting it for a few more months. (In California)

    Spoke to Madrid OB manager today. He told me they have a little more than 20 pieces paid, before they stopped taking full payments.
    Also that I am #10 /20, and there have been 3 deliveries yet (so actually I'm #7).
    I guess that means from 1 to 6 months waiting, hopefully, depending on the supplies.
    Finally he told me that Omega is trying to find out possible flippers, and each piece is assigned with owner name from Switzerland (based on OB payment lists). I tried to persuade him I'm not one of those (I have no buying history with them, and every contact only by phone, as I live 380km away)...
    Good luck everyone with their Snoopys.

    Everything I have heard is consistent with nicolamilton. Pieces are being assigned by name by headquarters in Switzerland, based on the client reservation lists provided by each boutique. They are doing this to reduce flippers, and it’s consistent with Raynald’s interview in revolution.

    Exactly !


    Even my AD in Delhi says that pieces are coming with designated names on them. However, they are not taking deposits. They were asked for a firm list by 31.10.20 beyond which no new entries were to be entertained given the controlled supply.

    Hoping it comes home sooner than I think !
