路So is it a 321 movement which my AD had suggested 馃槙
No 321 movement if the number of releases is around the 7000 mark as Omega simply couldn't provide that many 321 movements, if their own press release is to be believed.
However, if the watch did have a 321 then the numbers released would be very small (if Omega's own press release is believed), and this is turn would create a huge marketplace for the profiteer. The price would also be well above 拢14,000 as the basic 321 is priced over 拢12k.
No my guess would be a 3861 movement but maybe with the movement decorated in a similar fashion to the A8 DSOM Special.

路Where r u ? No more info ?
I am UK based.
Unfortunately no more info, when I chatted with the store manager a month ago they knew nothing about the watch, had no instruction from Omega, they had just a list of people interested and I am close to the top.

Hopefully you are 100% correct with the movement because if the price is near $14k, I will need to get rid of my Batman to fund the piece.

路I don鈥檛 think that the Apollo 8 is selling for a premium in the used market. If Omega goes this route, the value for this version of the Snoopy will be similar.
But this is a good thing isn't it? The more watches that are around the more people are able to join in the celebration, at least thats my view.

路M Matty1My OB says not taking lists on this one. Where are you based?
South East, it was the store manager that told me to put my name on the list, 'go for the A13 50th as the 321 is a regular watch and can be bought at any time' were his words, so I followed his advice, e-mailed him and have had confirmation that I am on the list.

路Totally agree, we can forget that idea. 3861 is more likely the movement that will be used for this 50th silver snoopy award
The 3861 is the new movement for the Moonwatch (best guess), so until the 1861 is officially discontinued the 3861 will power these specials, Omega haven't invested a lot of time and money creating the 3861 to only use it in the A11 50th.

路Whats the difference between the 3861 and 1861, isn't it essentially the same? Even the power reserve is the same as well.

The 3861 is a Master Chronometer whereas the 1861 is not, there may other differences that I am not aware of.

路Put my 5K (for 50th?) deposit 19.70 days (if my math is right) away from October 5th?

路I am pretty sure the OB in Tokyo would not take deposits or do wait lists which leaves me in a bind if I really like the piece come Oct. Got to think about how I can get a silver snoops 50th over here!

路The 3861 is METAS certified. So it means that is has an accuracy between 0 to +5 seconds and the benefits like other Omega calibers such as the anti magnetism. It has a free sprung balance which makes it better resistant to shocks. It of course also has the co-axial escapement which supposedly should give you longer service intervals. The power reserve is "only" 50 hours, not 62 like stated above.

路Specs say 50 hours but I'm getting around 62 hours on mine as well.
