    I do love a timex , once bought 50 of them in a job lot for £50 , all but two wound up and ran , amazing for such a basic pin pallet movement , bought this one last year as it had a space theme

    I know Snoopy was a 'World war one flying ace' but did he ever actually go into space?

    Charlie's watch has taken it's place amongst my character based watches

    I’ve had the original 70’s snoopy Timexs’ in the past and yes your right they are small in dial size as well as wrist ,think they were aimed at kids and the fairer sex ? , I gave my last one away to a good (female) friend of mine
