The Silver Snoopy Award is a prestigious recognition within the NASA community . First presented in 1968 , this award was part of the Manned Flight Awareness program whereby NASA astronauts selected and awarded companies and members of the community who contributed to space travel . Omega was awarded the Silver Snoopy Award in 1970 , when the Omega Speedmaster successfully helped time the launch back to earth amidst an oxygen tank explosion on board . The Silver Snoopy Award continues today , and holds the same importance some forty years since its inception .
Presented in like-new condition with full accessories , this is an opportunity to partake in Omega and NASA ’ s long and important history .
