    They’ll do what they normally do.it will sell out immediately with a few mugs paying ridiculous prices for them on eBay. Timex will then produce another shedload some months later and all the previous hype will wither and die. And then onto the next one...

    Those made me smile in a good way. Just had the e-mail, and like the one with Charlie Brown and Snoopy jumping in the air!
    Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.

    That particular drawing is one of my favourite pieces of comic book art - along with a wonderful picture of Calvin and Hobbes hugging each other.

    They send me to a great time in my young life. the peanuts holiday specials were already fairly old when I first watched them, but my children love them like I did.

    What’s with the snoopy obsession and watches?

    Is this just Timex using Snoopy to cash in on the Omega marketing?

    Probably more just Timex reissuing their Timex Peanuts watches, I doubt the average Timex buyer knows or cares about any Omega snoopy watch.

    Timex were doing snoopy watches well before Omega.

    One of my first watches was a mechanical timex snoopy with his arms for hands like this -


    I love them because in a world of rolex rolex rolex, I can also collect snoopy watches and enjoy them for what they are :-)

    The peanuts over the years has appeared on the watches of multiple companies - it's no different to licensing Batman to appear on a watch:

    First Timex watch featuring Snoopy 1969, first Omega 2003. And I believe Armitron before either of them.

    Going to pick one up just for the nostalgia

    Enjoy. Snoopy & friends were very important in the 80’s.
