Omega Speedmaster Apollo 13 Snoopy '45th Anniversary' 311.32.42.30.04.003
In 1970, the crew aboard Apollo 13 used their Speedmaster watches as part of their perilous yet successful return to Earth, an action for which OMEGA received NASA's Silver Snoopy Award.
For the 45th anniversary, this inspired "Moonwatch" has been created in a Limited Edition series of 1,970 pieces. The design has been refreshed with a white dial that features a Super-LumiNova Snoopy on the 9 o'clock subdial.
"Failure is not an option" has been transferred on the dial, as well as the phrase "What could you do in 14 seconds?" with 14 squares that represent the Snoopy comics.
The 42.00 mm polished-brushed case is made with stainless steel, while the polished black ceramic bezel ring also features Super-LumiNova on the tachymeter scale.
Similar to the iconic original, this watch features the OMEGA Calibre 1861, and "Moonwatch" style hands.
To complete the look, there is a black coated nylon fabric strap, and a crafted 925 Silver Snoopy medallion with dark blue enamel on the reverse.
