Omega James Bond Review
Only a handful of different brands have had an excellent relationship with the James Bond franchise. This franchise has steadfastly maintained a relationship with Omega. Specifically, the Omega Seamaster has been James Bond's companion in all of the movies in the franchise since 1995. Both Omega and James Bond have established a strong partnership that reflects the prowess and excellence that any watch under the Omega Seamaster collection can bring to its wearer. Let's have a closer look at these watches.
The Definitive History of Omega James Bond Watch Collection
James Bond and Omega's story begins with the Omega Seamaster Professional Diver 300M, featured in the GoldenEye movie of 1995. In this movie, Bond uses the watch's in-built laser on its bezel to cut his way to freedom out of a steel plate armored train. In the films, Tomorrow Never Dies of 1997, The World is Not Enough of 1999, and Die Another Day of 2002, James Bond uses the Omega Seamaster 300M, model number 2531.80.00. Bond enjoys the Seamaster watch models due to its incorporated detachable remote controller, small grappling hook, and its crown with laser-shooting capabilities.
The Seamaster Diver 300M, model number 2220.80.00, is featured in the Casino Royale of 2006 movie, which introduces Daniel Craig into the 007 roles. As a subtle update of the earlier model, this timepiece that features a striking blue dial certainly caught the eye of one of the film's characters, who termed the watch as exceptionally beautiful.
James Bond has adopted several other Omega Seamaster watches such as the Planet Ocean and Aqua Terra, featured in Quantum of Solace of 2008, Skyfall of 2012, and Spectre of 2015. From the watch's aspects featured in the movies and application in real-life situations, you get a clear picture of the collection's elegance, resilience, and diving abilities.
Exquisite Timepieces in the James Bond Omega Watch Collection
Since 1995, Seamaster Omega watches have been accompanying 007 in every spy mission in all of the films. The careful collection of unique timepieces has showcased an exquisite fashion flair, reliability, and adventurous spirit. Below is a closer look at the different watches featured under the Omega James Bond watch collection.
Omega Seamaster Professional 300M 2541.800
The Omega Seamaster Professional 300M 2541.800 marks the first Omega timepiece used by the James Bond franchise. The watch represents Omega's introduction into the franchise, but it also showcases the sharp and sly demeanor looks of Pierce Brosnan, who took up the role of James Bond. The Seamaster Professional 300M maintained its proper form, especially with the Q Branch, which touts a laser in the bezel and an in-built detonator.
With the co-axial movement and helium escape valve, this watch has a 30 bar (300 m) water resistance, making it a first choice divers' watch. This is a limited edition watch worthy of collectors’ appreciation.
Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 2201.50.00
007 wears another Omega timepiece, the Seamaster Planet Ocean 600m co-axial chronometer with a black dial, in Quantum of Solace. The timepiece is smaller compared to the Planet Ocean worn in Casino Royale. It also has a more formal look than the large black bezel on the Seamasters seen in Bond movies since 1995. Its wearers can enjoy other features, including its 2500 Omega self-winding chronograph, 48-hour power reserve, and domed anti-reflective and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.
Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra
The Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra takes a unique role in the Seamaster collection, especially with its modern master co-axial escapement that can withstand strong magnetic fields. The watch was designed exclusively for the Spectre movie of 2015, especially with its NATO strap and explosive capabilities. To prove how much this watch is worth, Omega released a Limited Edition 'Spectre' Seamaster 300 for purchase. Watch enthusiasts can enjoy this watch's high efficiency, water resistance to 150 m, bicolor case, and other exquisite features.
Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Limited Edition
The Omega Seamaster Diver 300M pays tribute to the thrilling James Bond movie, On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. It is limited to only 7,007 pieces and crafted with plenty of secret surprises celebrating this film's 50th anniversary.
To mark the 50th anniversary, this watch has 18K gold used for the hands, indexes, the Bond family coat-of-arms at 12 o'clock, and the limited edition plate. It also has a spiral-brushed black ceramic dial that is laser engraved with the iconic James Bond gun barrel design. The timepiece also features a secret signature number 50 that is revealed in the dark on the luminescent material at 10 o'clock.
Reasons Why Omega James Bond Watches For Sale Are a Must-Have for Watch Lovers
You don't need to have watched all the James Bond franchise movies to realize why you need to buy an Omega James Bond watch. All the watches under this collection and all others featured by Omega maintain a unique characteristic that many other timepieces haven't achieved. Let's have a closer look at several reasons why you should consider buying an Omega James Bond watch for your collection.
Excellent Craftsmanship
Omega focuses on using quality materials and is not afraid of experimenting with new options. For instance, the Seamaster 300M Professional Diver limited edition features a unique 8800 Caliber movement with impressive precision and magnetic resistance of 15,000 gausses. That allows the timepiece to be certified as one of the watches with the highest watchmaking standards.
Link to 007
The rather tense dialogue between James Bond and Vesper Lynd in the 2006 film Casino Royale sums up the class that the James Bond Omega watch collection has brought to the watchmaking industry. The superspy choice of Seamaster comes as a result of his Navy past. Therefore, it is fair to state that Omega has secured one of the best brand ambassadors of all time who remains loyal to the brand forever—and saves the world now and then.
