The Latest James Bond Watch - Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Commander

Omega has been Bond’s watch since 1995, in which he (Pierce Brosnan) wore a Seamaster in “GoldenEye.” The watch itself presents a lot of Royal Navy and Bond iconography, with white ceramic dial, blue skeleton hour and minute hands, and a red seconds hand with a pistol-shaped counterweight. The number 7 in the date window is coloured red, while all the other numbers are blue. The oscillating weight has the stripes of the Commander’s rank, and at the centre, the base of a cartridge.

The 41 mm steel case has a blue ceramic bezel, with diving scale in Liquidmetal, and the first 15 minutes coated in red rubber. The caseback has a wide frame with space for the name Commander’s Watch and the edition number. On the NATO polyamide strap, the watch looks great, with the strap stripe colours cleverly chosen to enable the dial to shine, rather than the strap. The layout of the bezel is also unusual and attractive, with dots at all the minute marks that enable the bezel to be used for timings to the nearest minute. This feature has long been part of the Professional Seamaster 300M, along with the attractively curving lugs, the helium escape valve and the screw-in crown. The white ceramic is on the other hand a first for the Seamaster.
