Nashville has got to be a very small market so that probably helped. @texasmade mentioned once that the Houston OB didn't have a lot of repeat customers and that probably helped him get his Snoopy. As always, location is a big factor.
Actually I’m 200 miles away from it. But an easy trip, and that boutique is in a mall that makes most other malls look like Walmart. IWC and Breitling are next door and two down, TAG is downstairs, and the Rolex jeweler has its own entrance from outside. So there’s money there.
I was told twice by sales reps in two boutiques that I could get a Snoopy if I bought a couple watches. The OB in Taiwan wanted me to buy one gold speedy and the new OB in Portland said buy two watches. To prove it they noted a recent customer had received a Snoopy after buying 2 watches. I still am skeptical that they get that many Snoopys.

AD run boutique practices vs non-AD run practices?

Maybe to keep this in the context of the title of this thread, it seems that two white 3861 speedies equal one snoopy.

Yeah, in my case it is a Swatch Owned OB (if you get a business card from an associate, you can tell by the email address).
I think the secondary price shows us that demand is likely down and supply may be slightly up as a result. Supply of the Snoopy to OBs might be up, but I’m not sure how to measure that. I Swatch Owned Boutiques will continue preferring previous purchases before allocating someone a Snoopy…you might get lucky, of course.
Does this suggest that availability is essentially greater than it was two years ago, or simply mark a change in approach towards sales? Or, both? Curious of everyone's takeaway.
I had the chance to finally try one and compare to my Snoopy.
Really beautiful, but still prefer my beagle. It looks less dull, more special. Is it worth paying 4k€ more? -silver dial, back animation, ceramic bezel, that's up to you. For 9600€ I paid, undoubtedly, but not sure which path I'd choose if a had to make the decission now with new prices.
Finally picked mine up! It's as stunning as I remember!
Also got my railmaster back, they replaced both ratchet wheels on the automatic works, plus 1 other gear I didn't recognize. So hopefully that is back to normal 😀

Only been wearing the white speedy for an hour or so, but it's a beauty! I would still suggest the FIOS or black speedy as an "only" or first speedmaster, but this is a super great 2nd.
I did my pickup from a different person than my SA, since he was on his weekend today. The woman I picked it up from mentioned when I asked about the Snoopy and Meteorite that they are reserved for "established" customers, and she would pass it on to my sales guy that I was interested. She mentioned they are a brand new store, so they are trying to "build" loyal customers.
So i don't know if that implies I could get a Snoopy, but after 1 purchase, seemingly not out of the question.
