Goodwoof is delighted to launch an exclusive limited-edition watch featuring one of the world’s most beloved dogs, Snoopy, designed by the visionary watchmaker Bamford London.

The highly collectable Bamford 80 watch features Snoopy front and centre, depicted as his persona, the Flying Ace to reflect Goodwood’s aviation heritage. On a lightweight titanium case, the black dial displays Snoopy in white with orange details representing the official Goodwoof colour. This colour combination is also represented in the black cordura strap with contrasting orange stitching. On the dial, Snoopy’s arms form the hour and minute hands and Woodstock, sits at the tip of the seconds hand, his yellow plumage the other distinguished feature.
The watch is powered by a Swiss-made Sellita SW300-1 movement and it is presented in a unique gloss orange Snoopy doghouse.
George Bamford, Founder of Bamford London, commented; “It is a true honour to be invited to the first ever Goodwoof and to create this unique Snoopy watch, one of the most iconic comic strip characters, and perfect for this event.”
It is a fabulous addition to the event which already features a host of world-class competitors, and breath-taking displays, not forgetting the Barkitecture competition presented by Mastercard UK, which see architectural genii go head-to-head to create the ‘most luxurious dog kennel in the world’.
The Duke of Richmond & Gordon, founder of Goodwoof, commented; “Snoopy is universally admired for his daring, quirky, and cool personality which makes this masterpiece unique. Given how well loved Snoopy has been throughout the world since the inception of the Peanuts comic strip in 1950 and our total admiration for all things canine here at Goodwoof, we couldn’t think of a better place to launch this exclusive watch.”
The Goodwoof x Bamford limited edition Snoopy watch will be available to purchase from Saturday 28 May. They will retail at £1,450.
