Celebrate the remarkable connection between Swiss watchmaking and space exploration with the Omega Speedmaster Silver Snoopy Award 50th Anniversary, reference 310.32.42.50.02.001. Combining a sophisticated silver dial, striking blue accents, and an innovative animated caseback, this exceptional chronograph pays tribute to Omega’s historic contribution to NASA’s Apollo 13 mission.
Housed in a 42 mm stainless steel case, this distinguished Speedmaster features a blue ceramic tachymeter bezel, a blue fabric strap, and a hand-wound Co-Axial Master Chronometer movement. Its design blends the classic Speedmaster aesthetic with distinctive details inspired by space exploration, making it an appealing choice for collectors and enthusiasts of fine mechanical watches.
Iconic Silver and Blue Design
The watch features a beautifully finished silver dial complemented by blue sub-dials, blue hands, and angular hour markers. At the 9 o’clock position, a silver Snoopy medallion adds a distinctive tribute to the character’s association with NASA’s Silver Snoopy Award.
A blue ceramic bezel with a white enamel tachymeter scale reinforces the watch’s sporty character. The stainless steel case combines polished and brushed finishes, while the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal provides a clear view of the dial.
The blue coated nylon fabric strap, finished with a grained calfskin leather underside, provides a comfortable fit and complements the watch’s signature colour scheme.
Innovative Animated Caseback
One of the most distinctive features of this Speedmaster is its sapphire crystal caseback. Inspired by the Apollo 13 mission, the display incorporates a lunar scene and an animated Snoopy travelling across the far side of the Moon.
When the chronograph is activated, the mechanism brings the space-themed animation to life, while a rotating Earth disc moves in coordination with the watch’s small-seconds display. This imaginative feature combines mechanical ingenuity with Omega’s space-exploration heritage.
Precision Swiss Mechanical Movement
At the heart of the watch is the Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861, a manually wound mechanical chronograph movement. Certified by METAS, it is designed to deliver precise timekeeping, reliable performance, and resistance to magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss.
With an approximately 50-hour power reserve, the movement combines traditional watchmaking craftsmanship with modern technical standards. The chronograph allows elapsed time to be measured, while the tachymeter scale supports speed calculations over a known distance.
Space Exploration Heritage
The Silver Snoopy Award commemorates Omega’s recognition by NASA astronauts in 1970 for the brand’s contributions to mission safety and the Apollo programme. The watch celebrates this legacy, including the pivotal role the Speedmaster played during the Apollo 13 mission.
Its combination of historic significance, detailed finishing, and distinctive Snoopy-themed elements gives this model a special place within the Speedmaster collection.
