Vintage Snoopy Watch Red Moving Arms 1958 Charlie Brown United Feature Syndicate, store Inc. With Original Watch Band

Vintage Snoopy Women's Watch, Moving Arms 1958 Charlie Brown.

1969 United Feature Syndicate, Inc.

Watch is in good working order and has original watch band. It has been inspected by a jeweler and is in very good condition.

The single most contentious feature of these timepieces would have to be the date of manufacture. We've all seen ads for Timex Snoopy watches that claim the watches were made in 1958. This is due to the copyright printed on the dial, which states "Copr 1958 United Features Syndicate, Inc.". This refers to the Peanuts copyright granted to United Features in 1958, NOT to the date of manufacture. (The original copyright was granted in 1950, and was periodically updated. Some Timex Peanuts watches have different years as the copyright, such as the Flying Ace Snoopy.) Not only is it highly improbable that Timex manufactured all of these watches in a single year, in 1958 Timex was not even known by that name. The company name at that time was Ingersoll.

The first Timex Snoopy watch was manufactured in 1969, and features a happy dancing Snoopy with his arms rotating to point to the time. This was such a hit that Timex created the same watch in many different color combinations, from basic black and white to red, yellow, and white combinations. store
