Very well - they're still collectible and sought after, and priced accordingly.

Quite a few of the limited edition Speedmaster Professional models have held their price or appreciated.
The first Snoopy had a run of 5441 models (or is it 5442 given that 0000 was auctioned on eBay), it was a very slow seller and as pointed out earlier, discounts could be had. Once interest picked up the price virtually doubled overnight, now (like most of the Ltd editions) they rarely come up for sale.
This years limited edition Snoopy was going to be my only watch purchase but it blows my newly imposed price limit and also I'm on the fence as to whether I like it or not. I don't like the strap that's for sure, I hope Omega will supply it with a bracelet too (like they did with the Alaska Project).

I must admit, I love the idea of this watch, and will buy one if I can find one.
I've made a few enquiries with various AD's but nothing concrete.
I'm sure one will turn up somewhere, sometime.
Or they'll be a Mk3 version at some point.
It's really not worth falling out with people about, that's for sure.
Hmmm, actually think I'm getting confused with the Gemini IV 0000 which was purchased by Nic Green, it's because he has a Snoopy too ... but made from service parts. Apologies but I'm sure 0000 was picked up by an AD, will double check with Omega forums which is where I thought I saw the information.
Good man, be interested in how much the Gemini went for also if you knew?
