How could we have forgotten our honorable and esteemed watch YouTubers? I hope they come to the rescue soon for our conundrum.
Hate them or love them but people who watch YouTube are far more than the ones who participate in watch forums, without some buzz, we may never hear back from Omega...

You’re never going to hear back from Omega regardless.

Well, I do not have a macro lens, but I did hold the loupe up to my iPhone and tried to get the best shot I could. Also included a full-sun shot with no macro on my iPhone to try and show the ‘naked eye’ look. I bought this watch in the USA at an OB in May 2025. I was told it had just come into stock. Of course, I have no way to prove that. Serial number is Axxxxxx. I do have a decent spend-history and solid relationship with the OB (and management). I feel pretty sure they had gotten this one in just before they sold it to me.

I have read through all 13 pages of this thread, and I feel like I have a “line on the foot” and the zipper looks ok to me. The 4/7 indices look bolder than the rest, but not sure if that’s supposed to be the case or not. With my naked eye, I can just barely see the line on the foot. Enjoy!

I was hoping you would post yours. It's interesting to see the variations as I don't think yours or mine are old stock. But my serial starts with 8 not A.

I was on the hunt for your post as I was reading through! Since we purchased from the same OB, it’s likely safe to say that there won’t be a geographical component to where the “no zipper/no foot-line” variants popped up. Omega must amass stock and send it out to OBs/ADs with no relation to the origin or the components, production, or quality check.

Luck of the draw…much like getting the watch in the first place! Haha

I would be curious to know if the serial number leading digit represents anything about the origin of the watch.

All I know is that this makes me want to buy an early version of the next Snoopy 😀

Someone said "A" numbers originated in the UK, I think we proved that wrong.

Not the best photo but here’s mine from end of last month. It’s an ‘A’ serial number.

Hey guys! I've been reading through this thread because I might have the opportunity to get a Snoopy! I'm a bit worried about these new variations, not gonna lie they seem quite bad compared to the older releases... From what I'm seeing, some are better than others (like no fading, for example), but in my opinion, what makes the Snoopy look great are those bold outlines.

Also, we can't really tell if it's a new production or not, since even if it was purchased recently, it could still be old stock, right? Even the serial numbers can be confusing, some have Axxxx with the problem and some don't!

Is anyone else in line to get a Snoopy and feeling the same concerns? I'm trying to reassure myself that I might still get one with the original look.
Also, does anyone have mentioned it to their AD? Are they willing to replace the dial? Thank you!

Because Omega has changed their serial number system a while back, so if you want to get one with old looking, try finding one with serial number starts with 8xxxx instead of Axxxx.

There is not much you can do other than checking it at the dealer when you get the call (assuming that's how you are getting one). There have been some good 'A' examples. I don't think fading is an issue, those that look faded are just picture related.

This is a heckuva thread.
4. Below are two pictures of the same cat. Is he blue or grey? Hint: ignore what my wife says. He’s blue.

Isn't he blue-grey?😁

Mine starts with 8 and has no foot line and extremely faint zipper line. New from boutique February 2025. Accept it as production variations and move on.

Hi there, I would like to share information from one member of czech chronomag forum. He visited Omega dealer on Prague. Where one pc on Snoopy (not for sale) was only to show to the customers and this one has exactly this discused sub dial with all the “issues”. BUT the store member stated that this is done by Omega on purpose, we can say like “ last edition” and the watch will be discontinued during next year when the model will be introduced. He was also offered to sign the waiting list for the new model ( he is no.9 on this list). And finaly staff said that these two model will we on market together for some time.
So…take it as as information from out country👍

First part is bullshit for sure.
Second, highly likely.
