Zag gisteren op de website van OMEGA dit horloge voorbijkomen. Ik vind het een pracht klok. Er worden er nog geen 1970 van gemaakt. Het verhaal rond het horloge vind ik al super cool! Wat vinden jullie? Is dit horloge nog te koop of word dat echt zwaar zoeken.

@septentrio dat Snoopy is wel een leuk dingetje wat wel ergens over gaatâŠ
Speedmaster Professional Silver Snoopy
I surely did not expect to see a white dialed Speedmaster Professional Silver Snoopy Award, but as you probably know some of the most collectable and sought-after Speedmaster models from the past had white dials. Although Iâve heard a lot of criticism towards the dial because of the printing, I will get back to that later on. The Speedmaster Silver Snoopy Award has a white dial because of Charles Schulzâ Snoopy drawing, black and white. The designer of this limited edition Speedmaster wanted to embed the same color scheme that the Snoopy character has into the watch. This resulted in a white dial, black hands and hour markers and a black (ceramic) bezel.

With regards to the printing on the dial; the Snoopy, the text balloon and the âWhat could you do in 14 seconds?â between 00:00 and 00:14, this needs some more explanation. Without going into detail about the 14 seconds, apart from the fact that this was the duration of the mid-course correction the Apollo 13 needed in order to safely return into the atmosphere, it is quite a sentence to be printed on a dial. To be frank, this sentence is where most-heard criticism is about. However, those 14 seconds were crucial to be timed correctly and thatâs where the Speedmaster came into the story in 1970. You could say these 14 seconds are of essence for the whole Snoopy Award thing. Just above this sentence, there are 14 printed squares or frames. These frames refer to the Peanuts (feat. Snoopy) comic strip. Snoopy, doing his thing on the 9 oâclock sub-dial, has a little text-balloon that is positioned just above the centre-pinion. It says âFailure is not an option!â. This line was used by actor Ed Harris who played Apollo 13 Flight Director Gene Kranz in the 1995 film about the historic mission, Apollo 13. Now, according to my conversation with the designer of this Speedmaster Silver Snoopy Award, Gene Kranz indeed didnât use these words himself at the time of the Apollo 13 mission but later on used words of similar kind during an interview with the script-writers. After the sentence was used in the 1995 movie, Gene Kranz used âFailure is not an optionâ as a title for his autobiography that appeared in 2000.
@septentrio komt niet aan in dit verhaal inderdaad maar Snoopy is voor de NASA de mascotte voor veiligheid tijdens de reizen naar de ruimte / Apollo programma.
VInd het toch een interssant psychologisch fenomeen. Hoe een horlogefabrikant, bijkans als een drugdealer, mensen zo weet te stimuleren.
Het is blijkbaar ongelooflijk eenvoudig om mensen wijs te maken dat ze iets nodig hebben is. Dan gaat ineens de rede overboord en slaat de behoefte ongenadig toe. Nogmaals: je hebt het NIET nodig
En als je zegt dat je het graag wilt & het je gelooft dat het je eigen vrije wil is, dat is het meest gehoorde excuusâŠ
tsja apart
