The presence of the Peanuts character Snoopy on this UK perfect replica watches may seem random, but does in fact come with a rich backstory.
The ‘Silver Snoopy’ award is a special prize given to NASA employees and contractors for outstanding performance in the realms of safety or mission success; and one such award was given to cheap super clone Omega watches in 1970 for the Speedmaster’s pivotal role during the Apollo 13 mission.
To commemorate this achievement, launched the high quality fake Omega Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” Anniversary Series watches in 2020, complete with an animated Snoopy in a lunar module passing between Earth and the moon on the caseback. It’s activated when the chronograph function is started and only appears from behind the moon after 14 seconds — the same timespan of the critical rocket burn NASA astronauts timed in order to course-correct and return to Earth safely.
In addition to the Snoopy character that moves with the chronograph hand, the earth on the caseback animation is connected to the running seconds of the best fake Omega watches, meaning it also makes one rotation every 60 seconds. While some might dismiss such the UK 1:1 wholesale copy watches as kitsch or unserious, I think it’s the best execution of a playful animation in years.
