In 1970, OMEGA received the coveted “Silver Snoopy Award” from the astronauts at NASA, recognizing the brand’s unique contributions to space exploration, as well as the Speedmaster’s vital support during the rescue of Apollo 13.
Fifty years later, Omega created an extraordinary timepiece in the occasion’s honor.
According to Omega, “Our favorite beagle plays a prominent role within the timepiece, appearing as an embossed silver medallion on the blue subdial at 9 o’clock. He is wearing his famous spacesuit in the exact style of the silver pin that NASA astronauts give to award recipients.”
The watch’s blue nylon fabric strap matches the other blue elements and even features the trajectory of the Apollo 13 mission, embossed on the lining. This strap is attached to a 42 mm case in stainless steel.
