    It's a very nice looking watch IMH. Makes all the right noises as far as nods to the past vintage models. I like it anyway.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Its the latest from Omega, its nice, but they have nicer models..

    Without James Bond, I don't where they would get their inspiration these days

    The narrower a man’s mind, the broader his statements.

    Nice looking watch but the hands ruin it for me.

    Would love it but not sure if I prefer the prefer the previous version with the '12' intact and slightly smaller Omega logo.

    Look at a Seamaster De Ville, they're a nice watch.

    Not sure about the numbers on the bezel. I prefer the planet ocean. Bond watches normally come at a premium for some reason too.

    How much extra is the Bond version over the regular one?

    Doesn't matter any more. The Bond version is no more. It didn't make it past the end of the film :p

    Spiolers goddammit Unkel!! :mad: I would have expected better from a classic car dude. Oh wait… my jalopy is 18 years old and I'm an awful gobshíte for letting the cat outa the bag. OK… Carry on. Nothing to see here. :D

    It is a very nice looking watch but the product placement premium would put me off TBH.

    I saw this in the flesh here in Edinburgh yesterday. It is undoubtedly a beautiful watch. It has a different seconds hand to the non-Spectre version as well. Not cheap though.

    I'd still be a Speedmaster man though, for less money too.

    Had a chat with this old guy when we were both looking in the watch shop's window - he showed me his 1964 Seamaster. "Rolex? Nae wae, son." Oh dear, I thought, as I shuffled my Datejust up my sleeve...
