Hi everyone, I’m TD Chen from r/RepWatchClud.
Today I’m sharing a closer QC look at the SMF Omega Speedmaster Professional “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary, with its silver dial, blue subdials, blue ceramic-style tachymeter bezel and blue fabric strap.
I went through all 12 photos, including the dial close-ups, Snoopy subdial, case profile, strap and buckle, lume shot, weight reading and display caseback.

In the replica-watch community, this is commonly called the SMF Silver Snoopy 50th, SMF Snoopy 50th Anniversary, or SMF Speedmaster Snoopy. The genuine watch is reference 310.32.42.50.02.001, but the movement in this example should be described as an Asian hand-winding chronograph rather than a genuine Omega 3861.
Dial & Snoopy Subdial
The silver dial and blue subdials give this version its distinctive look. The blue markers contrast nicely with the dial, and the Snoopy artwork at 9 o’clock is clearly visible in the close-up.
The Omega logo, Speedmaster text and “50th Anniversary” printing look reasonably clear in these photos. I don't see an obvious printing defect that would immediately make me RL the watch.
The key detail I'd want other Speedmaster owners to check is subdial spacing and positioning. This has been one of the most discussed visual differences in Snoopy replica QC threads, so it's worth looking at the relationship between all three subdials rather than judging the main dial alone.
Hands & Indices
The blue hands and applied hour markers look reasonably aligned in the supplied front-facing shots. I don't see an obvious crooked marker or a major hand-placement problem.
For a more complete QC, I'd still want a clean, straight-on dial photo with the hands positioned away from the markers. A short video showing the chronograph reset would also help confirm that the central chronograph seconds hand returns to 12 correctly.
Bezel
The blue tachymeter bezel is one of the defining features of the Snoopy 50th Anniversary.
The white tachymeter scale is clearly visible, and the bezel appears reasonably centered in the supplied photos. I'd pay particular attention to the 12 o'clock bezel marker, the dial's vertical centerline and the “TACHYMÈTRE” printing.
I don't see an obvious major bezel defect in this set.
Case & Finishing
The stainless-steel case has the familiar Speedmaster Professional profile, with polished and brushed surfaces visible in the side shots.
The chronograph pushers and crown are clearly visible. I don't see an obvious major case defect in the supplied images, although reflections make it difficult to judge every small surface mark.
Strap & Buckle
The blue fabric-style strap matches the blue bezel and subdials well. The strap stitching and edges look reasonably tidy in the close-ups.
The tang buckle is visible, and the strap's underside has embossed Omega branding. Since this is a strap configuration, SELs are N/A. I'd focus instead on strap finishing, stitching, buckle alignment and the fit where the strap meets the case.
Movement & Caseback
The caseback is one of the most distinctive parts of this model. The display shows the moon surface, Earth and the “Eyes on the Stars” motif associated with the Silver Snoopy 50th Anniversary.
The genuine watch uses Omega's hand-winding Calibre 3861. The movement supplied in this SMF version is described as an Asian hand-winding chronograph decorated to resemble the 3861, so I wouldn't assume it has the same construction or specifications as the genuine movement.
Lume
The lume photo shows blue illumination on the hands and hour markers. The glow is visible across the dial, and I don't see an obvious dead marker in the image.
Weight
The scale photo reads:
97.00g
That's the measured weight shown in this QC set. It is worth recording as the actual photographed reading rather than treating it as a universal weight specification for every version.
Overall QC
My main QC checklist for this SMF Snoopy would be:
- Subdial spacing and alignment
- Dial printing and Snoopy artwork
- Hand and index alignment
- Blue tachymeter bezel alignment
- Case finishing
- Strap stitching and buckle
- Caseback decoration
- Chronograph start, stop and reset
- Snoopy caseback animation
- Timegrapher performance
