Omega x Swatch, Snoopy Has Landed The Moon

2024-03-22

Sometimes you know a thing is coming and it still manages to surprise you. Such is the case with the latest in the MoonSwatch lineage. Swatch has spent the better part of the past couple of months teasing a Snoopy-themed variation of the model and today, it came through. This is the MoonSwatch Mission to the Moonphase.

This all-white colorway features a white dial, white case, and white velcro strap. It has all the fixings of a normal MoonSwatch until you peer at the upper right sub-register which is where you'll find the familiar Snoopy and Woodstock characters lying atop the Moon much the way they would on Snoopy's doghouse in the Peanuts comic strip.

This image is immediately reminiscent of the 1,970-piece Omega Speedmaster Silver Snoopy limited edition from 2015 which showed Snoopy in the prone position on the dial with the Apollo 13 mission text "What could you do in 14 seconds?"

The white dial and placement of Snoopy in a sub-register is carried over into this new MoonSwatch. But with the Mission to the Moonphase, Snoopy has a far more active and functional role (on par with his rocket around the Moon on the caseback of the 2020 rendition of the Silver Snoopy Speedy).
