Omega’s new Snoopy watch has a glowing NASA Easter egg

This $260 Watch Has Omega Fans Lining Up Worldwide

MISSION TO THE MOONPHASE, MoonSwatch
Swatch

Omega and Swatch have teamed up again with a brilliant collaboration commemorating one of its most beloved characters. The MoonSwatch ‘Mission to Snoopy’ features the iconic beagle peeking from behind the sundial at 9 o’clock, a touching tribute to Omega’s beloved Silver Snoopy Award legacy. This whimsical rendering keeps the bio-ceramic case from older MoonSwatch models but switches in the seconds hand for Snoopy’s spacesuit silhouette as he floats against a dark blue celestial dial. 

Why this collection will resonate with Speedmaster fans

While there are many watch purists with varying opinions on the MoonSwatch line, the ‘Mission to Snoopy’ collection seamlessly bridges Swatch’s playfulness with Omega’s deep NASA connection. The design stands as a homage to the Speedmaster’s role in Apollo missions, when the Silver Snoopy Award honored Omega after saving Apollo 13. Affordably priced at just a fraction of Speedmaster Snoopy metal editions, it serves as the perfect entry point for watch collectors in search of a distinct aesthetic. Another reason to celebrate this innovative watch is the easter egg no one saw coming: when placed under ultra-violet light, Snoopy’s capsule glows the slogan, “Failure is not an option” – a phrase synonymous with Omega’s brand. 

The MoonSwatch Snoopy perfectly blends luxury with a sense of humor

As the collection continues to blur lines between high and accessible horology, Omega proves that today’s collectors value the art of storytelling as much as technical prowess. Available exclusively in Swatch stores worldwide, this may be the most dynamic Speedmaster iteration yet.

The best casual watches for men (to upgrade your everyday style)
Work wear blues watch close up

Watches are more than a tool. They are more than an accessory. They are the kind of tool and accessory that make a statement. They are an expression. They are a statement. A man can look incredible: the right top, the right bottom, great shoes, great hat. The wrong watch can ruin a look, or even the whole essence. Here is the rub: the wrong watch can be subjective. For instance, most people will tell you that a Timex broken watch isn’t the right watch for a pinstripe power suit. However, it was my grandfather’s watch, and I wear it anytime I need him and his guidance. The point? That is never the wrong watch. Once you find a casual watch that works for you, it will be your everyday wear and will never be the wrong watch.

That is what I collected here: The best of the casual watches you can pick up today that will become your everyday wear.

Audemars Piguet launches pre-owned program to rival the titan of the second-hand watch market
Audemars Piguet

Rolex has dominated the watch world for nearly a century. The industry is a deep and complicated web of luxury houses and independent hopefuls. While brands like Patek Phillipe and Cartier vie for their place on the podium, Rolex holds a death grip on the chronophile’s aspirational collection checklist. But Audemars Piguet has decided to challenge them somewhere most other brands are deciding to ignore: the pre-owned market. Now, while something like the Royal Oak is an icon among enthusiasts, AP launching their own certified pre-owned marketplace to chase the reported $1 billion Rolex pie will certainly upset the market.

Like I said, it is a deep and complicated web, so I sat down with a horological expert and founder of WatchGuys, (317K on Instagram), Robertino Altieri, to have him walk me through what this means for watches and their passionate collectors.
