Since pre ordering I got myself the Rising Sun and Apollo 8 DSOTM.
Good to see someone waiting for a snoopy buying an omega watch! I thought it was just Rolex investment guys waiting for one and that only…..😁

I don't have a single Rolex in my collection. Would love to have a GMT Master and maybe a Sub but I'm not willing to play their games.

On the list for snoopy also…just picked up the new Bond Seamaster.

Really unique piece. Love the weight, the colors. The new Milanese bracelet is really something else. I’ve had one before and it was really flimsy. Not this one. I only have white and black dials, so a tropical colored one definitely adds to my collection.

Fair enough. The Apollo 8 and the rising sun are cracking ones to have while you wait too 👍

Anyone else expanding their collections while awaiting the arrival of snoopy? I’ve bought a strela chronograph and sturmanskie gagarin.

I have a promising lead on getting one of the first delivered to Ireland. So tightening my purse strings in anticipation. Was looking at a JLC moon phase, but won't risk not having the funds for the Snoopy in case I get the nod.

I sold my older Breitling Superocean Heritage Chrono a few months ago thinking my Snoopy would be coming sooner. When I was told it wouldn’t be until 2022, I picked up a Tudor BB58 Blue and a Chrono Panda . I have a blue and a panda dial, now I just need a blue panda!

I'm sure I'm nowhere near the top of the list to get one but sure would like one!
I passed an original for eight grand a few years back. Still kicking myself over that one

A few years back at below retail? This launched less than a year ago

I think he was referring to the original Omega Snoopy Apollo 13 released in 2003.

Poster would have to be. The 2nd Snoopy was basically above retail as soon as it was released. Only the first one was a slow mover for a number of years.

Ah thats what he meant by "an original"
I skipped over that part. Makes sense.

Are you referring to the Tudor Panda Chrono?

Have a question for everyone. I placed a deposit before the announcement at my OB of $5k, and they have never asked me about the rest. It seems like everyone here has had to place the full deposit. Is there anyone else like me that has only placed the initial $5k? I don't want to ask the OB and have another $5k locked in for an unknown amount of time if I don't have to.

Some OBs kept the 5K only.
Getting the full deposit was at discretion of the OB.
If you have your receipt mentioning “Snoopy”, you are okay.

Yep. My deposit wasn't quite 5k but all the details of the purchase are listed on the receipt I received, and I was told that the deposit was part of the allocation and nothing more was required until delivery.

Yes, the new Tudor Black Bay Chrono white panda that was released in April.

They won't ask for the remainder until your watch comes in. Luckily you have a deposit at an OB...it really is just a waiting game....good luck!

Yep. Added 7 watches since my deposit in June.
