·Err, No.
This is a well documented artistic impression of what somebody hopes it will look like. Sorry.

·A Silver Snoopy Award but a celebration on the 50th anniversary of receiving it, mmm silver or white gold?
I'm certain there will be a precious metal but which, my gut is telling me white gold as being touted at a similar price to the Apollo 11 50th.

But Omega loves a bit of Moonshine 😉

·But Apollo 13 never made it to the surface so *Shirley no Moonshine 😜
*Don't call me... 😁
Okay Shirley, but they did travel further than any other human being so perhaps there is a white version of moonshine being prepared, or maybe it will be Platinum. 😁

I'm expecting slightly higher than ~£7k if a stainless steel piece as Omega had a price increase in the UK in September.

·I suppose but it looks good though.
Nice and simple looking.
I don't want to see something OTT and bling.
Agreed on not too much bling. I think the 45th nailed it in terms of clean aesthetics and the overall character of the watch. Hopefully the style of the 50th follows along a similar note.

The 45th Snoopy was awesome in style but that ship has now sailed.
Not a hope, look at the A11 50th as a guide, the issue will be how do you portray Snoopy and the silver aspect in that watch.

·I suspect as others have mentioned, the snoopy award could be etched into the case back in a similar vein to the A11 engraving.

·In the true spirit of snoopy, I’d love to see it as a white dial with black sub dials to match the colour scheme
with an engraved award caseback and perhaps an UM style UV motif.
Also a white gold version with meteorite dial special piece
one can only dream

Yes no bling.
I would like to see something nice and simple like the 45th again but with a few tweaks.

·Something I’ve just found out but never knew until 5 mins ago...
The significance of October 5th ( other than it being my birthday and the date of announcement of the 50th anniversary) is that this is the date in 1970 that NASA awarded the Silver Snoopy Award. Did anyone else already know this?
