·You make a good point and I do have my doubts about what the sales associate said as well. She’s been nice and all but ultimately, this is business and you’re right that her goal is to sell as many watches as possible.

·Buy the 5-6k watch if you love it. Don't buy it with the hopes of it leading to an aquisition on a high demand low availabilty model. Do the latter and you'll most likely wind up disappointed or annoyed.

Don't buy watches you don't want to have a "chance" to get a watch you want. You buy what they tell you to buy and 6 months from now this sales associate won't even be working for Omega anymore.

·Yall make a good point! I think I’ll wait for the grey prices to come down a little before getting the Snoopy. I see a couple now in the grey market and they seem somewhat hard to sell. And if I really wanted a Seamaster Diver 300m, it would just make sense to get it on the grey and save almost 2k USD for a brand new one.

·Thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts - and also thank you to everyone above for the insightful responses! I am based in Singapore and have a single watch purchase history (2024 FOiS Bracelet, Ref: 310.30.40.50.06.001) with the OB.
Based on the responses above, the following seem apparent:
1. Unlikely for another iteration of the Silver Snoopy for 2025
2. Omega would likely continue with the production for the 50th Anniversary Silver Snoopy as demand remains high
3. Grey market prices of the 50th Anniversary Silver Snoopy would stabilise at 10-15% above MSRP
4. Still a good idea to purchase the 50th Anniversary Silver Snoopy this year from the OB
I just need to figure out what other watch I should purchase in the 5.5-6k USD range to get a shot at buying the Snoopy. Right now, I'm leaning towards the Seamaster Diver 300m (Ref: 210.32.42.20.01.001). I like the watch but perhaps not enough to want to make me keep it. Buying this watch and immediately selling it (unworn with box and papers) to the grey market would easily incur a 2.2k USD loss as well!
