A Brief Look at the Craftsmanship of the OM Factory Omega Speedmaster Snoopy 50th Anniversary Model

The Omega Speedmaster model is produced by OM Factory with a high-tech ceramic case, 42 mm diameter and high-precision automatic Super Clone movement architecture. It is among the most successful 1:1 super clone watch reviews on the market, with its sapphire crystal AR coating glass, original case tolerances and detailed workmanship.

Where is Replica OM Factory Omega Snoopy missing?

Replica always tries to remain impartial in its watch reviews. This watch is also a model that deserves a very high score in terms of appearance. What draws the most attention is its multifunctional chronograph and layered moon phase indicator on the back! Since its playability is very high, its interest has never diminished; So much so that its price went from a few tens of thousands to 20-odd thousand. This is one of the most overpriced models among watches. As a replica manufacturer focusing on the Speedmaster series, OM Factory benefited from its experience with the 45th Anniversary model and perfectly interpreted the new 50th Anniversary Omega Snoopy model of the original. The general details of the watch are still very successful, and points such as quality control are also quite good. Of course, there are missing details; Let's call it a flaw. First of all, this watch exactly reflects the details of the original in terms of functions on the dial surface; After all, the watch is equipped with a manually wound ST19 chronograph mechanical movement, and the functions on the dial are perfectly replicated, including the chronograph function! However, the most appreciated detail is that the mechanism on the back does not work! Pay attention: this movement in the original is only activated when the chronograph is started! When the chronograph function is activated, Snoopy in the command/service module rotates following the hour and minute hands, as if floating through space. The world disk at the back rotates once every minute and is synchronized with the small seconds hand of the watch. At this point, OM Factory could not realize this function; We can call this the only flaw! (Between 2003–2020) Omega released only 3 “Snoopy” Speedmasters. Ultimately, the biggest purpose of the replica watch is to reflect the details of the original as faithfully as possible and to experience the style of the original at the least cost; In terms of appearance details, this watch is really worth buying! If you want to start the chronograph and have Snoopy spin around in the back, currently only the original has this function; because it is quite difficult to make a mold of this! Replica Omega This watch is the first choice for friends who love Snoopy! But I still recommend watch lovers who want the rear function to be synchronized with the chronograph to buy the original with a price of 250 thousand; because it is still quite difficult to replicate and the current replica level is not at a level to meet this detail!

Workmanship analysis of Replica OM Factory Omega Snoopy 50th Anniversary model

The Omega Speedmaster Snoopy 50th Anniversary commemorative model is 42 mm in diameter and approximately 15.5 mm thick. Of course, the values ​​may vary slightly depending on the measurement pressure. With this size, it is more suitable for watch lovers with slightly thick wrists or those who like to wear large or heavy watches; because the total weight of the watch is approximately 167 grams. The real shot is of the steel bracelet version; This time, OM Factory has only released the steel bracelet version, no rubber version! In terms of appearance, this watch is really successful!

316 stainless steel is used as the material in the OM Factory Omega Snoopy 50th Anniversary model. I will not dwell too much on this material, because many of the original watches are made of this material. The case of the 50th Anniversary model is both brushed and polished, giving the watch a very attractive appearance! In addition, the curve of the case is very comfortable and does not cause discomfort when worn in the hand! After all, OM Factory is a manufacturer specialized in Speedmaster Omega!

In addition, the watch is equipped with a black zirconium oxide [ZrO2] ceramic bezel and has white enamel tachymeter markings engraved on it. The black bezel matches the black inside the dial. Let me also mention the 45th Anniversary model here; The 45th Anniversary model also has a black bezel, both belong to the Speedmaster series. Be careful not to hit the bezel as much as possible in the future; After all, ceramic material, once it gets hit, it reflects directly on your pocket!

The glass of the Omega Speedmaster uses sapphire crystal glass, which is curved like a pot lid and has anti-reflective coating on both sides. When viewed from the side, it looks slightly protruding. This type of glass is not easily scratched during use and makes the time easier to read! The dial is in the same style as most chronographs, with a three-eye arrangement. The watch uses a silver dial. The black small seconds dial at 9 o'clock has a "Snoopy" figure (Snoopy badge medallion design) and English text commemorating the 50th Anniversary; functions are synchronized too! The font on the dial is also quite clear; Lume dots have also been added to the hour markers. This reflects OM Factory's craftsmanship!

As for the functions, we work with the buttons on the right. The top button is the chronograph start button; When you press it once, the longest chronograph minute hand in the middle moves and operates the relevant dials. In this respect, it is no different from an ordinary chronograph; The real feature of this watch is only the detail on the back! Also note this: on this watch, the crown in the middle is for time setting. The watch is equipped with a manual mechanism; When arming, an arming protection function is activated. Let's say the winding doesn't turn anymore, then don't continue winding by force; This is different from ordinary automatic movements. The mechanism of each watch is different; This is also different from the previous BBR Factory Roger Dubuis. This Speedmaster has this extra protection function!

The back is also the biggest highlight of the watch. This is exactly the biggest detail behind the inflated price of the watch from 70-odd thousand to 250 thousand. The markings on the back are very clear and consistent with the original. The back cover of the watch has a screw-down design, like the previous watches. The original uses NAIAD lock technology; This is a pretty similar style to VS Factory's Seamaster 600. This time, OM Factory used a screw-on back cover, and the image on the back is bright as a mirror! Of course, this point is slightly different from the original; After all, in the original it can move with the chronograph, in the OM it is only decorative. Watch lovers who are not satisfied with these details can skip it directly; because the price of the replica is not even a small fraction of the original!

As for the movement, this time OM Factory used the manual winding ST19 chronograph mechanical movement. In terms of function, it also ensures that the functions on the dial work normally. As I mentioned above, the movement must be manually wound; If it no longer rotates when you install it, do not continue to force it, otherwise you will damage the mechanism! This is due to the structure of the mechanism!

As for the strap side, this time OM Factory used the same nylon strap and steel bracelet as the original. The orbit of the Apollo 13 mission is embossed on the OM Factory Omega Speedmaster. More stylish and more comfortable when worn with the new three-piece steel bracelet; The buckle logo has a more retro feel. The workmanship details of the steel bracelet are very successful, even the font is extremely clear. We really need to congratulate OM Factory on this; The accessory side is really successful!

Summary: Today, OM Factory shared the details of the Omega Snoopy 50th Anniversary model with you and answered some frequently asked questions about the watch. The overall workmanship of the watch is still very advantageous; It reflects the original at the highest possible level in terms of details. Of course, it has its shortcomings. Those who really love the Snoopy 50th Anniversary model can buy it with peace of mind! Thanks for watching!
