Funky - I saw that exact watch and agree it looks bloody superb! However I think it was something like double the price?!
yes the price is one of the issues that's stopping me just saying feck it what the hell.

As I said, I think I'm going to look like a toddler wearing my dad's watch otherwise! 
Bet you won't. The Seamaster will feel bigger on the wrist than the Speedmaster - you're going to have to come up with another reason not to buy it immediately I'm afraid...TonyHetherington said:
You should put a disclaimer in before you talk/say/act, Stuart. "Warning, what I am about to say might cost you a lot of money"
Too bloody right! Ok, I will have to go and try both before I buy... (Un)fortunately, if the 41mm case is fine for my wrist, that'll mean I need a Tag Carrera as well!
Right, is there anywhere I can compare the Speedmaster series with their RRPs?
The Omega website isn't that useful as I can only look at details of the watch with no prices...
There is a very nice one at £1500ish on the Classifieds...
Will certainly give him a shout if (more likely, when!) I decide to get a Speedmaster. 
Will certainly need to try both on first, don't want to end up with a watch that is too big for me!
Shouldn't really be looking at them at the moment as well, spent too much money on various things already!!!

and looks alot better in the flesh.I've been browsing the Speedmaster variants for a few days now, just wondered what people thought of the 'Snoopy' edition?
I quite like the look of it, but can't find any for sale beyond a couple on eBay (I'm watching them).
There is an old link to a sold one on watches.co.uk but none elsewhere, just wondered what sort of value people put on them?
I see from watches.co.uk they had an original RRP of £1600, I assume that put them just above the 'Reduced' price-wise?

I used to have a reduced (I thought the automatic would be easier than manual wind) but now have the full size pro.
The bracelet seems nicer on the moonwatch than on the reduced and it definitely feels chunkier. As for size I have fairly big hands and wrists and it sits fine, I could even manage it being a little bigger.

The Snoopy usually commands a premium over the standard watch on the used market (they will all be used now, you can't buy new) because it is one of the more favoured of the many special editions of the moonwatch. I don't really like any changes to the subdials, but that's just my personal preference.I quite like the look of it, but can't find any for sale beyond a couple on eBay (I'm watching them).
