I’m no an expert and I know have some deep-seated opinions. I have now limited my choices

Maybe I’m not imaginative, but have settled on some and I have other watches, but am looking for something special, as I wont get the chance to do this again

Rolex Yacht Master 42
Rolex Smurf
Rolex Daytona
Omega Snoopy

Going to buy to keep and wear, not for any potential investment potential.

Thanks

Out of those four, pick the one you want the most.

All rather nice but out of those listed, the smurf would be my choice - one of my favourite watches, although it is unlikely that i will ever be able to justify the cost of actually buying one.

Snoopy for me.
Simply because it's an enthusiasts watch.
No one else will know what it is.

Thank you all. The thing is I can’t choose between them, love them all

The Smurf and Snoopy are the 2 main contenders currently

I can't keep up with these names. I know what the snoopy is but the smurf? Is that the Blnr or Batman? Also known as the gmt2 with blue/black bezel? My preference would be the GMT though I prefer the black bezel version. Love the Omega but was never a snoopy fan

White Gold Submariner = Smurf.

With a blue dial, I believe - looks amazing.

Try the 126719. Much nicer than the four listed.

Thanks all, have made my decision. I have placed an order for a Snoopy on Chrono24.

I did try and get in touch with the seller of the Smurf, but maybe they are just too busy to get my measly 25k :-) .

Maybes it's fate as the Snoopy is the one I could picture myself wearing the most.

Thanks for all the views.

I think that's a superb choice.
It's a great watch, with a great back story centred on Apollo 13 which itself was a great story and piece of history.

Thank you, much appreciated. I do love all the stuff that comes with the watch and plus it looks amazing. Love that Snoopy glows in the dark on the dial :-)

Thanks again

Snoopy is by far the best choice of those listed, I’m biased though.

Fair enough 😊.

Got an email saying it had been despatched from Germany, so should get it by Wednesday I guess

Am still in shock I went ahead with it, but I know I won’t regret it
