    Love that case back! And snoopy on the sub dial looks great like that. Hoping to see more photos from the event.

    I did not realize the snoopy dial is not flat. It falls away a bit at the edges. Not as dramatic as a pie pan, but a nice little touch. It can be seen a bit here. image.jpg
    The strap.

    The 57 was nice too. Nicer than expected.

    Think it looks better on your shots compared to the Omega shots :)

    That's the same for me too. I can never understand why on some advertising pics a watch can look so ordinary, where as in real life so completely different and compelling. Perhaps it's the way they are shot to suit a host of medium.

    I agree, these shots shits look far better.

    I finally saw the white side not too long ago and I do not like it. I do not see it selling well.

    Sales info from boutique, was forget about it, they are all already allocated, and there is a waiting list beyond that. :(

    The strap was quite comfy and overall it felt well balanced. I had it on for quite a bit.

    Snoopy glows a bit of a different color than the rest of the lume. He is kinda of green while the rest seems cool blue. perhaps that was exaggerated by the flashlight. image.jpg

    Very pretty watch and I agree regarding real pics looking better than the renderings, I've found most of Omega's rendered images don't do the watches justice and look flat and dull.

    Looks great. I so wanted that watch, but Thailand only got 15. Couldn't even get on a reserve list. They should have made 5000 of them!

    Am I the only one who doesn't like this? It just looks a bit cheesy. I especially dislike the "what could you do in 14 seconds?" motif. I do like back though.

    +1 from me. Looks far too gimmicky in my opinion.

    Don't feel too bad. I'm quite certain the Snoopies are being bought en-mass to be resold at profit. When the mad rush dries up, you'll see them, like all other Omegas, for sale in the wild/on forums.

    Maybe it's one of those watches that catches the imagination of watch guys now, but in a few years time it might not be so loved,I think that the case is what most people love about it . As someone who is not a fan of speedies, I never thought I would even get a little bit interested in one but this model looks so cool, I actually have my name on a few lists and would not hesitate to buy it if I get the chance.

    I'm sure that will be the case, sadly. And I'll have to be patient as in the meantime, I bought the 1957 Broad Arrow LE with the silver dial and blue hands and markers, which I've long been after, even put a WTB on here to no avail. My wallet will need to fill up again.
