Snoopy is back on a Ball dial, and this time he glows. The Engineer III Marvelight Snoopy Flying Ace puts the Flying Ace in his doghouse plane in the sub-dial at 6 o’clock, printed in white Super-LumiNova and ringed by Ball’s micro gas tubes.
It is limited to 250 pieces per version, with pre-orders open now for delivery in January and February 2027.
Price: $2,999

How does Snoopy glow after dark?
The hour markers are micro gas tubes, 14 on most versions and 13 on the smallest, with thinner tubes on the hands, so the time stays readable all night with no charging. Snoopy himself shines in Super-LumiNova, which needs light first.
Which of the seven versions should you pick?
Ball sells 36mm, 40mm and 43mm steel cases on a bracelet or leather, plus one bronze. The press release lists black and blue dials, though Ball’s US store shows only black-dial models.
Pick the middle size on the bracelet for the default, the smallest if your wrist runs small, and the bronze if you collect the material, since it will darken with wear.
Ball engraves the buyer’s name on the case back for free. It accepts no cancellations or changes after 3 days from purchase. This is a watch for yourself, delivered in the new year.
What’s under the Snoopy?
Ball’s RR1105 automatic with a 42-hour power reserve sits in a 904L steel case rated to 100 meters, shock resistant to 5,000 Gs and antimagnetic to 4,800 A/m, under an anti-reflective sapphire crystal. The middle size measures 46.6mm lug-to-lug.
Ball does not sell it on Amazon. For a Snoopy on the wrist at a fraction of the price, Timex’s Peanuts Weekender 38mm is there.
