Snoopy, come home!

 

Seiko 5 Sports is celebrating its 55th anniversary in 2023 and in honour of this, they have collaborated with PEANUTS and released a pair of Seiko 5 Sports models featuring Snoopy.

Charles M. Schulz first introduced the world to PEANUTS in 1950, when the comic strip debuted in seven newspapers.
Since then, Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the rest of the PEANUTS gang have made an indelible mark on popular culture.

SRPK25 features Snoopy as a surfer, who is out riding the waves.

SRPK27 features Snoopy flying through the air as a helicopter, with his best friend Woodstock as the pilot and Snoopy's beagle ears serving as the propeller.
The designs on both models are linked to the original PEANUTS art, with the images of the characters being carried over from the original cartoon strips in newspapers.

To add to these collaborative watches, the hand-drawn script of Charles Schulz, the creator of this comic strip, is used on the bezel display of SRPK25, the dial of SRPK27, and for the 'LIMITED EDITION' text on both case backs.

No detail was spared, Snoopy's paw print is displayed on the crown of both of these models to add an additional Snoopy touch to the watches. 
We only have a few of each model in stock so be quick!
