Omega introduced the Speedmaster Silver Snoopy Award 50th Anniversary in 2020 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of NASA presenting the Silver Snoopy Award to the brand in 1970. NASA recognised Omega for the Speedmaster’s important role during the Apollo 13 mission. The astronauts used their Speedmaster watches to time a critical 14-second engine burn that helped bring the spacecraft safely back towards Earth. This special edition pays tribute to that achievement through its Snoopy dial decoration and animated sapphire case back. When the wearer activates the chronograph, Snoopy travels around the Moon in a small spacecraft, while the Earth disc rotates in sync with the small seconds hand. These details make this model a unique chapter in the Speedmaster collection.
