Woodstock & Snoopy Pop-up watch by Vega

I'm back wearing a cute kids watch again today, but it's old enough that the kids who had it when it was released would be adults now...

The watch is a yellow block which features the Peanuts characters Snoopy and Woodstock as moulded figures on the front. Japan is quite Snoopy mad, and has large Snoopy Town stores to sell all manner of Snoopy merchandise.

Also on the front is a little white button with a dogs paw print on. This button releases the pop-up module and the LCD display appears out of the top of the watch. The watch module is as normal for a novelty watch with 4 digit display and time, date, or seconds mode. For battery replacement, the module slides out of the side of the pop-up block. The instruction booklet also says you can remove the strap to use it as a clock, and you can also attach a chain to make a pendant.

The watch came in a Vega box and has the manufacturers name of Adec on the back. This means it was made by the Citizen owned Adec brand, and is part of the Vega range (as although there is no mention of Vega on the watch itself, the instruction booklet states it as Vega quartz). The module number is 4971 with a full model number of 4971-393953.
