Omega 3578.51.00 Speedmaster Professional Snoopy Award SS Black Dial LIMITED

The Omega 3578.51.00 Speedmaster Professional Snoopy Award Limited Edition is a highly sought-after tribute to the Apollo 13 mission, produced in a strictly limited run of 5,441 pieces beginning in 2003. This iconic chronograph celebrates Omega’s vital role in NASA’s crewed space program, specifically commemorating the Silver Snoopy Award given by astronauts in recognition of outstanding achievements in flight safety and mission success. Featuring the revered manual-winding caliber Omega 1861, the same robust movement found in Moonwatches worn on lunar missions, the watch is housed in a classic 42mm stainless steel case with a matching steel bracelet. Its black dial is distinctly adorned with the beloved Snoopy character on the subdial at 9 o’clock—a nod to collectors and space enthusiasts alike—and is protected by a Hesalite crystal. Water resistance is rated to 30 meters, and the case back displays an elaborately engraved Snoopy medallion. The tachymeter bezel, bold chronograph functionality, and clean Speedmaster lines ensure its place as both a collector’s piece and a functional tool watch. Its unique narrative, strictly limited numbers, and direct lineage to one of horology’s most celebrated chronographs establish it as a cornerstone for enthusiasts of both Omega and space exploration history. Excellent Condition with Omega service box and undated papers.
