Close your eyes … now open them quickly … what time is it

It’s even worse when the hour hand and minute hand are above the sub dials …

When the Snoopy first came out, I thought I had to have it but wasn't easy. Since then I ended up with EW321 which I feel I made the right choice. I didn't think about the legibility which is one of my watch choice criteria. I had a CK2998 and let it go for the exact same reason - legibility ot lack of. When the hour and min hands are over the subdials, it is hard to read.

Snoopy is a cute watch but the 321 is way better. 321 Movement vs normal movement same as the regular speedmasters.

best metal bracelet vs cheap straps.

Open caseback to view the gorgeous movement vs closed.

I agree with you on legibility as an important criteria. I recently swapped out the polished hands of a new FOiS to a 321 hands set for that exact reason.

I don’t have any issues w legibility on my 321 nor w my previous Silver Snoopy.

I finally got one!

An OB opened in my town in September and I was one of the first to express my interest in the 321. Got the call yesterday morning and picked the watch up in the early afternoon. It is fantastic!

I am grateful to the salesperson and her manager for making this happen as I had almost lost hope and planned to go grey in 2025.

While I will probably keep my 3861 (which I bought from an AD who couldn't access the 321), the 321 is a pretty special watch both on the wrist and in the collection.

The 321 is certainly one of the best Omega has to offer, congratulations!

[Mr_Sheen]

Congratulations. What a way to wrap up the year.

i have the 2 same watches now - Snoopy and 321 bought from the boutique... but i don't really resonate with the Snoopy and i much prefer the 321...anyone else finds the Snoopy is too hyped up?
