Snoopy off the site in 2025

[schwartz914]

Is that what people are hearing?

[AEC]

It's there, under "Heritage Models"

I know. Wondering if Jan 1 it goes. They really should do it

[brandrea]

I don’t think it’s going anywhere

[1William]

Maybe, but I doubt it.

If they discontinue it I very much doubt it will be on January 1st. I think the Snoopy 50th was released in October 2020 so if they do decide on a 55th anniversary it may not be until later next year. However, I am not sure they will do a 55th so we may see the silver Snoopy for some time yet.

Besides …. This iteration will always be the Silver Snoopy 50th anniversary, so why would they?

[RotorSelfWinding]

Still there.

My AD told me it may still be under heritage models, but that's it for the snoopy.

The last few will trickle in, but it's over. You won't see anymore after 2-3 months

I managed to get one Snoopy in late 2024 but funny enough i reach out for my 321 more than the Snoopy. Anyone thinks there's too much hype on the Snoopy and that it is overrated?

You might be right.

I sort of agree with this, I prefer my 321 to the Snoopy 3 as well.

There are quite a few on here who have to have the latest thing and then, having tried the latest thing, decide they don’t like it after all. I think the Snoopy 3 can easily fall into this category. I suspect that some saw what had happened to the Snoopy 2 price wise and wanted the same to happen again.

I definitely prefer the 321. Besides the finishing, movement, heritage etc, the legibility is outstanding and especially for a chronograph.

I moved the Snoopy on rather quickly after I got it as I just couldn’t read the time (especially in low light, it was brutal).

The snoopy is a beautiful watch in every other way, but for me that was a real deal breaker. Such a shame

Quick …. Close you eyes and open them. There is no contest in terms of legibility.

Were your legibility issues with the Snoopy due to the blue hands on top of the blue subdials? Or did you find that generally it was hard to read regardless of the hand position?

I ask because I find the white dial Speedy extremely legible even with the black hands and white lume on top. But that one doesn't have dark colored subdials.

It was mainly the over the subdials but in also Genral, especially low light I just found it hard to read.

I specifically remember being out to dinner with Andrea one night and we were keeping an eye on the time as we needed to pick up our daughter later in the evening. I was so frustrated with how I had to stare at the watch and move it around just to tell the time. I knew right then and there it wasn’t for me.

You’d think the contrast would be excellent but IRL it was horrible (again maybe just to me).

Nothing beats the 321 for legibility with it’s pure white pencil hands against a black dial and with the subtle vintage lume … notice I didn’t say fauxtina

I have not tried on the snoopy yet before placing interest for it. I felt it was a fun and unique watch to have and I thought why not just let the SA know I’m interested in it. It’s only after several months of wearing that I felt there is no wow factor for me .

So are you still holding onto the snoopy?

I do still have the Snoopy 3, but it doesn’t get worn much.

It was intended for my wife really, she has a Snoopy 2 and we thought it would be nice to get the later version as well. Having tried it, she still much prefers the earlier version and rarely wears the new one. I wear it occasionally but we have an issue with the strap. My wife has a much smaller wrist than me and in an attempt to get a strap we can both wear we have ended up with a compromise that neither of us really likes which doesn’t help!

I don’t have the legibility issues that some have with the Snoopy 3 and it’s the only watch with some colour I have so I find it OK.

Would I buy it again, I don’t know, possibly not. It’s a bit of a novelty and we got it new at mrrp so it can stay for the time being. It does not have a wow factor to me though.

I am not sure I would call the Snoopy hyped - but, I own both and I know I wear the 321 WAY more than the Snoopy. Not to say the Snoopy is not a great watch - I love it. I just love the 321 more.

What!! The snoopy was EXTREMELY hyped when it came out, it was trading for over $20k when it came out. These days, the hype has definitely died down, they can be found at the OB for MSRP or for just a few thousand over retail.

Wearing it today. It does have its charm

My Snoopy 50 suddenly broke last week. Chrono function wouldn't activate, reset pusher could be pushed continuously when chrono wasn't activated, watch wouldn't wind, and it stopped keeping time. The only thing that still worked was the running seconds subdial. I gave it to my Omega Boutique to get it fixed under warranty. Not sure how long it will take though. Kind of disappointing since that was main watch for the past 3 years.

Oh man, I hope you get it back soon Robert
