The AVI-8 Peanuts Snoopy Flying Ace begins shipping at the beginning of April.
The Spitfire Peanuts Snoopy Flying Ace 24-Hour Automatic Limited Edition is a high-flying tribute to the legendary Peanuts beagle and his daring alter-ego. This collector-worthy series blends the rugged aviation DNA of AVI-8's Spitfire collection with the whimsical spirit of Charles M. Schulz’s "Flying Ace". Each timepiece features a meticulously crafted 3D Snoopy pilot on the dial, poised for his next dogfight against the Red Baron, and an exhibition caseback that reveals a custom Snoopy-themed rotor.
The watch is housed in a 42mm stainless steel case and protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire lens with anti-reflective coating. This limited edition is defined by its vibrant colorways and tactile details, from the embossed Snoopy motifs on the dial to the precise applied indexes treated with Swiss luminous material for night-time sorties. Available in three distinct mission-ready variants—Charcoal Grey, Azure Blue, and Burnt Orange—each watch is capped at just 400 pieces per variant. The set is presented in specialty packaging that honors the Peanuts heritage, making it a definitive choice for enthusiasts of both fine horology and classic animation.
Powering this mission is a Seiko NH34 24-hour automatic movement, designed to keep your timing precise through the toughest skies. Unlike standard 12-hour watches, this specialized caliber tracks the full passage of the day, reflecting the endurance required of a true Flying Ace.
