While most of the U.S. is still obsessed with the NBA Finals for at least a couple more days (go Knicks), much of the rest of the world has turned its attention to the world’s most popular sport, soccer, and the start of the 2026 World Cup.
This year’s competition will be watched more closely here at home compared to usual, as the U.S. is the host nation for the event, along with Mexico and Canada.
That means companies will be coming out of the woodwork to try and capitalize on soccer’s biggest stage coming to America, and that includes Timex, which recently trotted out a soccer-themed Snoopy watch that’s perfect for wearing while watching the beautiful game.

This latest version of the Marlin Automatic belongs to Timex’s expansive licensed Peanuts collection. It features a large image of Snoopy, depicted mid-kick, printed on the silver sunburst dial between 5:00 and 6:00.
A soccer ball functions as the watch’s seconds hand, but there’s no actual hand. Instead, the soccer ball is printed on a rotating transparent disc, giving the illusion that it is floating around the dial. The effect is aided by Timex’s use of a Miyota automatic movement, which provides a smooth sweep.
